Teen Book Review Blog

Write reviews for your favorite books. Receive volunteer/community service hours to count towards graduation requirements, National Honor Society requirements and more!

To start, simply choose a book to read. We would prefer that you select a book from our collection, but feel free to choose any book that you feel strongly about. Next, write a compelling, well-written review of the book that you chose. Try to aim for 200-400 words or approximately two paragraphs. Incomplete or unedited work will be sent back to the submitter to be re-done. Please note that your review doesn’t have to be positive, so just be honest.

Make sure you have submitted your Community Service Volunteer Application in order to qualify for community service hours. Background checks are required for volunteers 18 years of age or older.  Email these to hholst@mclinc.org.  Finally, submit your work via this Google Form.

Each review is worth 1 volunteer hour. Once your review has been posted, you will receive the volunteering credit.

Attention:

Please complete a Community Service Volunteer Application (linked here) before submitting a review. Anyone aged 14-17 only needs to complete the volunteer application. Anyone age 18 and up must also complete the following:

  • PA State Police Criminal History Clearance (PCHC)
  • PA Child Abuse History Clearance (CAHC).

These are free for volunteers. Due to high demand, we cannot guarantee that we can accommodate everyone.
Those seeking volunteer hours for the National Honors Society should consider having one or more backup locations in order to obtain all required hours. Hours are first come, first served, so submit your applications as soon as possible!
*Please note that the opinions expressed in this blog are those of the blog participants and not the library itself.
