Teen Book Reviewer

A new, exciting volunteer opportunity! The Teen Book Reviewer will choose a book, graphic novel or book on CD from the library’s collection or an eBook or Audiobook from Overdrive to read and review. The book review can be a short video (under 60 seconds), or a written review of about 100-200 words.

The book review will be posted on the Huntsville Public Library’s Instagram, Facebook and Tiktok, the Huntsville Library Teen’s Instagram, and the written review posted to Teen Advisory Group’s Goodreads bookshelf. The Teen Book Reviewer receives 5 hours of community volunteer service for each review.

Reviews are submitted to Amber, Youth Services Librarian.
