Harper Lee's new book

Greetings HPL,

Beloved author Harper Lee’s new book Go Set a Watchman will be published on July 14, 2015. To commemorate this historic literary event, we are asking you to share your memory of reading To Kill a Mockingbird with us:

–        When was the first time you read it;

–        How did it made you feel;

–        Did you read it for a school assignment;

–        Did a parent or another grown up encourage you to read it;

–        Have you shared it with a child?

You don’t have to answer all of these questions. Just a short, 2-3 sentences will do. Include a selfie if you’d like. We will compile a list and post it on HPL’s website encouraging our customers to share their memories as well.

Send your recollections to the Virtual Library team (hplvirtuallibrary@houstontx.gov) by Thursday, July 2, 2015. We will publish it on the website few days before the book comes out.

Thanks to our LMS colleagues, print, e-book, audio and Spanish versions of Go Set a Watchman are available to place holds in our catalog: http://bit.ly/1eMxyh4

Sincerely,

Saima
