Over the past few years, HB Reads, a group of dedicated volunteers has sponsored annual One Book, One Community reading programs here in Huntington Beach. Last year's title, They Poured Fire on Us from the Sky, was an eye opening reading experience, connecting us to the horrors of genocide in Sudan.
HB Reads is already hard at work planning their next city-wide reading experience, and to get things going, they are sponsoring a Bookfair at the Barnes & Noble Bookstore at Bella Terra. From August 27 - 29, if you tell the cashier that you are participating in the Huntington Beach Reads One Book Bookfair when making a purchase HB Reads will get a percentage of the sales. The money raised through the Bookfair will help the committee purchase books for our local high schools, arrange for author visits and generally help get the reading program underway.
The title for the next HB Reads will be announced in September.
The Library is looking forward to another exciting and thought provoking community reading experience in Huntington Beach, with HB Reads.
