Press enter after choosing selection

Ann Arbor | Ypsilanti Reads

by aadl staff

It's that time again! The communities of Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti join literary forces to read and discuss one book. The 2015 theme is A Very Good Read .

We are down to two finalists, We Need New Names by NoViolet Bulawayo and A Tale for the Time Being by Ruth Ozeki.

The judges want your feedback, which book should be the one that Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti reads? Read them and share your opinion by visiting the Finalist page, then click on the link that takes you to the book's page, and tell us what you think. Both titles are available for AADL cardholders to borrow. The Finalist will be selected in October.

You can listen to an interview with Ruta Sepetys the author of last year's Read winner, Between Shades of Gray, when she visited AADL. You can also visit the Ann Arbor Ypsilanti Reads website to find out more about the program.

They both sound great. I'll put my vote in for "New Names" for the Michigan connection (the state, not the school). This will be my first year doing the AA/Y Reads. I did the Dearborn one last year. It had been a long time since I'd read "Call of the Wild". I appreciate it more now, after our rough winter.

Looking forward to reading either book with the community.
