Connect 2 Books: “Read with Raegan”
This week Golden Libraries is bringing you a new feature called “Connect 2 Books.” In short, these posts will provide you with information on the many book clubs out there for a variety of different folks.
First up is Read with Raegan, the book club actress Raegan Revord who plays the sister on “Young Sheldon.” The books are Young Adult in nature.
In addition to the books that Revord recommends, she also has her own book coming out soon, “Rules for Fake Girlfriends.” It will be published in fall 2025 by Wednesday Books.

18 Books Celebrating ALL Families
For Rainbow Book Month in June 2024 we are celebrating families of all kinds. The eighteen books on the list below represent some of the very best of these books. Please consider sharing this list with others.
Below are a graphic from BookShop.org that provides great information about each title. Below that is a PDF file that you can use to print and/or email this list.
A couple of things:
- Each book has an age range assigned to it but it is up to adults to decide which books are reasonable choices for which child; and
- On the print version research sources are provided to assist you with finding additional title.
