Anybody else desperately miss summer reading programs from like. 20 years ago.

for everyone telling me to check my library of COURSE I have, those are what I’m talking about! But the adult ones my library runs 1) are through an app 2) don’t have any prizes, or the prizes are raffle tickets 3) aren’t themed around Space or Castles or Dinosaurs or Pirates, the only themes I will accept
