Fall is here to stay, and with it all its trappings!  Back to school, back to carpool, back to after-school activities and weekend sporting events.  This return to routine often leaves us feeling like we have much less free time for things like reading or listening- when it's not for school or work! 

These quick reads are just a few examples of books that can be enjoyed in a day or so, no long term commitment required!  Visit your local branch to check out one of these great titles, or download a copy using one of our awesome digital collections like Libby / Overdrive or Hoopla - available free for all resident BCLS cardholders!
