Summer reading recommendations

It’s not always easy to choose a book to read, especially if you’ve just finished everything by your favourite author. Help is at hand though in the form of the wonderfully simple and effective ‘Who Next…?’ Who Next…? does exactly what you’d expect. Simply login with your library card number and search by title or author and the resource will generate suggestions of books that are perfect for you! It’ll even give ideas for different reading ages.

It will also come in very handy this summer, if you’re looking to bump up the spine-chill factor for the Creepy House Summer Reading Challenge. You can search Who Next…? for ideas of books to read by genre including ghost & supernatural,  horror, magic, mystery and vampires. Children, teenagers and their parents need look no further for the next favourite read. Then, of course, it’s just a couple of clicks to the library catalogue to reserve the book online.

The ‘Creepy House’ reading challenge is nearly here…

This year’s summer reading challenge is ‘Creepy House’. The usual rules apply: just head to your local library over the summer holidays and read 6 books to collect some special smelly stickers and to receive that all important finisher’s medal.

Don’t forget that ebooks and eaudiobooks from our Library2go service count towards your six books.

Keep an eye on our Creepy House calendar for listings of Edinburgh Libraries’ activities or ask at the library next time you’re in to find out what the summer has in store.  You’ll find all you need to know about the Summer Reading Challenge for children, at the Reading Agency’s special Creepy House website.
