What are your all-time favorite books? This summer, we are asking you to vote for your favorites!

From Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend, you can list up to five titles and post your vote in the box. After Labor Day, we will count up the votes and announce the list of top choices.

If you want to play from home, email us at [email protected] and we will print off your favorites to add to the box for you! We would appreciate if you include whether you live on the islands or not in the email, as that question is on the in-store form (helps us see if there is a clear islands favorite).

If you remember the author, please add them to make the end result easier to figure out.
Yes, you can use the space on the back of the form.
No, you don't have to write them in preferential order.
Yes, you can vote for less than five. If you've only ever really loved one book, go ahead and leave it at that!
No, we won't hold you to your choices; in fact we won't even know who voted for what unless you let us know.

Enjoy, and happy summer!
