We have an exciting announcement! This summer, the Tucson Tome Gnome is teaming up with our friends at the Tucson Spotlight to host a summer reading club for adults! We aim to bring back the joy of childhood reading programs, with prizes, book bingo, and local bookstore love, all summer long. Feeling nostalgic for tracking your reading and enjoying some free pizza and prizes? This is the program for you!

You can read all the details on the Tucson Spotlight’s page, including more information on why we decided to do this, how to participate, how to win prizes (a.k.a. the rules), and where/when we’ll be giving out the prizes (Save the Date for August 16!).

The program starts today (June 1) and runs through August 16. Reading trackers and book bingo cards are available at Bookmans East (ask for your card and tracker at the counter), Homeward Books Collective, and Desierto Books. You can also pick them up at our next Solutions-Focused Community Book Club event on June 12. OR, if you want to print your own, you can also download them and print them out from the Tucson Spotlight’s website.

So grab your favorite bookmark, choose your next great read, and join us for a summer of stories, stickers, and yes, pizza.

Follow Tucson Spotlight and Tucson Tome Gnome on social media for updates, book recs, event details, and more. And don’t forget to tag each of us in all your summer reading posts! Happy reading! 📚🍕
