Leelanau Reads!

To the editor:

Thank you to the area readers who participated in the 2026 Leelanau Reads community reading program presented this spring by your local public libraries. Thank you for coming together to read and discuss this year’s selection, Wreck by Catherine Newman, and to attend the author event. Reading together builds connections and community.

Additional thanks to author Catherine Newman, conversation partner Brooke Hazael-Massieux, French Valley Vineyard, Bay Books, Murdick’s Fudge of SB, The Little Bear Farm Stay, the Friends group of each library, and our regional library co-ops for supporting Leelanau Reads!
