  3. After you’ve read your book, tell us what you think
    • Fill out the OCL Teen Book Review Form. Remember you are writing a review for your fellow teens! Give them enough information to help make a decision about choosing the book, but NO SPOILERS!!

 

Important Things to Remember:

  • We want you to enjoy reading and help us promote our awesome YA Collection!
  • The book you choose must be a YA book published no more than 3 years ago.
  • The books you review must not be on your school curriculum.
  • You will get 1 hour of community service time for each approved review.
