What is it?

The Advance Reading Club (ARC) is a program started for young adults to read advance (pre-released and unproofed) reader's copies of books by some of their favorite authors as well as unknown authors. The program has since expanded to include books for middle grade and early readers as well!

How does it work?

How do I join?

Once you finish reading the book, write up a short review - what did you like or not like, what did you think of the characters, would you recommend it to a friend - and bring it to the store. You can also tell us what you thought and we'll take notes. For each review you get a punch on your ARC Card: after five punches, you can redeem the card for $5.00 gift certificate! The book you reviewed is yours to keep!

Come in to the store and speak with our Children's Department guru, Stephanie. She'll answer any additional questions you may have, give you your punchcard, and set you up with your first book or two!
