2025 Lit Lineup

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.

Resolve to read more in 2025

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!
