Join Twin Cities PBS and local sponsors, Half Price Books, Graywolf Press, and Common Good Books for the live finale of the Great American Read as America chooses its favorite novel.

Along with PBS stations around the country, we’ll stream the live broadcast on the big screen with snacks, drinks and commentary from local luminaries. Hobnob with other bookworms and make the case for which of the 100 novels you think deserves to be crowned as America’s favorite novel (or which was unceremoniously left off the list!)

We’ll have a character costume contest, a trivia contest and a special drawing all for PRIZES donated by our sponsors. 

Don’t forget to cast your vote for your favorite novel on The Great American Read website. Click here to vote!

Thanks to our Sponsors
