Gulf Coast Reads 2025 Launches with 'The Faculty Lounge' by Jennifer Mathieu
Gulf Coast Reads, the annual regional one book program for adults, is now available as a reading challenge on Beanstack. This year's selection is 'The Faculty Lounge' by Jennifer Mathieu, set to be released as an ebook and eaudiobook on Libby in October. The program aims to promote literacy and build community through book discussions and various activities.
To participate, readers aged 18 and up can join the challenge on Beanstack by logging in or signing up at the library's Beanstack website. The reading challenge is not exclusively online; in-person events are also offered across the region. To complete the challenge, readers must finish 'The Faculty Lounge' and participate in at least three out of the 15 available activities. These activities include attending library programs, checking out a Freegal playlist inspired by the book, or sharing a book review. Notably, there is no physical reward for completing the challenge, and the search results do not contain information about the organizer of Gulf Coast Reads 2025.
Readers can log their reading and activities through the 'Log Reading and Activities' button on Beanstack. Gulf Coast Reads is an inclusive program, offering both in-person and online events, and is open to all adults in the region.
Gulf Coast Reads 2025, featuring 'The Faculty Lounge' by Jennifer Mathieu, is now open for participation. With a wide range of activities and both online and in-person events, the program encourages literacy and community building among adult readers across the Gulf Coast region.
