There are 12 new challenge items for your reading pleasure this year—you choose the books to fit each category. You may also ask DCL staff for recommendations or check out the curated book lists below. Kids can participate, too! And as in years past, if one book fits more than one category, you can count it twice.
Once you’ve finished the challenge and submitted your completed form, you’ll be entered into our random prize drawing for a DCL swag bag. Congratulations to Venessa L., Shari H., and Anelia N.,
our 2022 prize-drawing winners!
