USN Reads books available in USN bookstore at discount

by Susy Gillette, bookstore manager

USN Reads is a community-wide book read creating the opportunity for all of us to have a shared experience reading great literature.


This year, we have chosen two books for USN Reads: "All the Light We Cannot See" by Anthony Doerr and "The War that Saved My Life" by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley. Both award-winning books are set during World War II, with Doerr’s characters living in occupied France, while Bradley’s book takes place in the English countryside.  

On the opening night of Fall Book Frenzy, we will gather as a community to expand our literary horizons and discuss our collective experience in reading these books. We anticipate our panel discussion will include both literary gurus and World War II veterans.  
 
By choosing two different books, we hope to provide something for everyone. "All the Light We Cannot See" offers an engaging novel for older students, alumni, parents, and the wider USN community.  "The War that Saved My Life" is a page-turning read-aloud for the whole family or a book that will captivate your middle-grade reader.

The USN Bookstore is offering a 10 percent discount on both books.

Order the books online for pick up in the bookstore. We can also deliver the books to your child’s classroom if you list your child’s name and his or her teacher during checkout.

The bookstore is open school days from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and can be reached at 615-321-8017.
