Welcome to ten years of reading with the Lit Lineup! This reading challenge was created 10 years ago by Teresa Sundmark to inspire our community to read more. Prizes are generously funded by the Friends of the Homer Library.
Join our community-wide initiative to read fifteen books throughout the year. Anyone can participate, although the books were chosen with adults or mature teens in mind.
Each book you've read (and reported) enters you into a monthly drawing for a prize. Any person who reads and enters fifteen or more books by the end of the year will be eligible to win the grand prize!
Join the Friends of the Homer Public Library for an Author Talk with local author Harold Shepherd! Shepherd will discuss his bookReturn to Ekeunick's Time: Defending Waters and Tradition in the Arctic.
Join two Homer writers to discuss the joys and challenges of writing about historical events and individuals. How does a historian take the facts of a real person’s actions in a previous time and make them interesting and compelling to a modern reader? How does a fiction writer embellish or even set aside the facts of history for the same reason?
Come and see what happens when a journalist and a novelist walk into a library!
