summer reading program (details)
from the Tournament of Books
Camp bylaws are the same as last summer:
- Every week we’ll read half of each book, then discuss here on Wednesdays.
- We’ll be joined in the commentary booth each week by a different member of the Commentariat. (Please volunteer for that in the form below!)
- At the end of each month you decide which of the two books we just read heads to the end-of-summer finale, where you’ll cast one final vote to decide which of our summer reads heads to the 2021 Tournament of Books.
