For the fourth year, Berks County Public Libraries will join multiple counties across Pennsylvania in A Summer Read. The initiative, which runs from June through September, provides the public with a collective read on a topic about health and wellness. This year's selection, "A Mother's Reckoning: Living in the Aftermath of Tragedy," is available to check out at all 23 locations in the county, including the Village Library of Morgantown and the Boone Area Library in Birdsboro.
The topic of the 2019 selection focuses on the Columbine shooting and reflects on the issues of mental health problems and violence. Written by Sue Klebold, "A Mother's Reckoning" provides a look at Klebold's life before and after the tragedy at Columbine High School.
Copies of "A Mother's Reckoning" are available on the countywide catalog and can be requested online or checked out at any Berks County Public Libraries location. Cardholders can also read the e-book or listen to the e-audiobook version from their desktop, tablet, or mobile device.
