Our Community Reads is a program launched in August 2017 by the Aptos Chapter of the Friends of the Santa Cruz Public Libraries.
The goal is to create a shared experience by having members of the entire Santa Cruz community - from teens to adults -
all reading the same book.

A variety of events relating to themes of the winning book will take place from January to March 2021.

Our book selection criteria: 
  • Fiction or non-fiction
  • Thought provoking but not overly controversial
  • Appeals to both men and women 
  • Suitable for high school students 17 and older
  • The possibility of an author visit
  • Ideally, not more than 350 pages, available in paperback

Here are just a few comments from participants in our past seasons:
  • "There is such a thing as making a difference through community efforts!"
  • “I really enjoyed the speaker’s personal experience and perspective.”
  •  “I attended 5 events and enjoyed every one. Thanks, SO GREAT!”
  • “Fun to be with our community because of such a beautiful story teller.”
  • "Outstanding, knowledgeable, expert presenter!"
