The Susquehanna County Reads Committee is pleased to announce the fifth year of the County Reads program. The book is “The Hunger Games,” a recent release and New York Times bestselling novel by Suzanne Collins. “The Hunger Games” is the first in her series of post-apocalyptic novels and though the books are written for a young adult audience, they have been very widely enjoyed in an adult market.

Residents of Susquehanna County can register and get their own copy of the book starting Wednesday, March 7 at any county library. Those who register will be able to participate in several exciting programs and events, such as a panel book discussion, a “Wilderness Survival” day at Salt Springs, and much more!

Dates and times for these events will be further publicized. For more information, visit www.susqcolibrary.org/susqcoreads or www.facebook.com/susqcoreads.
