IRW loves lists, especially when they’re lists of great books!
Twice a year, IRW volunteers pull together a list of some of the best books they’ve read in the last six months. We publish one list at the beginning of summer break, and one for the holiday season. All lists are available on our website, and we bring hard copies of each new list to local libraries on MDI and in Washington County.
We’re always looking for volunteers to read books for us, decide if they’re of the highest quality, and write short recommendations. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer reader, please visit our Volunteer page.
