Break out that little black book... It's time to expand your TBR list!

Fall in love at Laman Library over and over again at our Book Speed Dating event! Your dates? A hand-picked group of Must-Reads from all genres curated by our librarians. It's just like a standard speed dating event but so much better because we are dating books! You'll have just a few minutes with each book before you've got to make a decision-- add to your TBR or move on.

What's a date without food? Light refreshments will be available before the dates begin.

Don't go home alone! Bring in your library card so you can leave with the books that catch your eye. Teens and older are welcome.
