We’re kicking things off with 16 of our most checked-out books from the Recreational Reading section. These power-house titles come from a range of genre backgrounds, with strong circulation (numbers of checkouts) this past season. Clearly, these heavy-hitters have proven they have what it takes to become the ultimate champion, but in this grueling head-to-head start, which 8 will emerge victorious? It’s up to you to decide!

Vote this week for your favorites, then find out which books will be moving on through our Facebook/Instagram announcements on Friday! To see the Round 1 lineup and choose your winners, check out our Library Madness page to vote online, or submit a paper vote in the Library Madness display on the main floor of the library.
