Monthly Novel-Teas Book Match

We think a good book and a delicious cup of tea are the perfect pairing. With our Adult Novel-Teas Book Match program, participants can sign up each month to receive an individualized book recommendation, with a complementary tea. Simply register, and complete the personalized Book Match Form, and our Adult Services Librarian, Mindy, will help you find your next book. Patrons must be 18+ to participate and spots are limited. For more information contact Mindy Farmer at 515-465-3569 or email mindy.farmer@perryia.org.

All Iowa Reads

Established in 2003, the purpose of All Iowa Reads is to foster a sense of unity through reading. Iowans are encouraged to come together in their communities to read and talk about a single book title in the same calendar year. All Iowa Reads consists of three programs, each with one title chosen per year: adults, teens ages 12-18, and kids ages 8-12. We will read the Adult Iowa Reads selection for the April Monthly Book Club.
