Books & Bites Bingo Reading Challenge, Summer-Fall Edition

Teens and adults, from now through December 30, 2024, keep track of books you read or listen to by writing the title and author in the matching square. You may pair any prompt with an asterisk with a prompt without an asterisk. You can’t use a title more than twice.

Complete all 25 squares for a chance to win a $100 Joseph-Beth gift card or an Amazon Kindle. You’ll also earn an enamel pin (while supplies last). During the month of December, turn in your completed card at the Ask a Librarian, Customer Service, or Teen Desks.

Download the Summer-Fall Books & Bites Bingo card (PDF, 460 KB) to get started.
