Book Match
Personalized reading recommendations from a real-life librarian! 

Submit a request and receive 5-10 book recommendations within a week or two. 

You'll get a list of recommendations in your email, and you can place holds on the books you'd like to read by clicking on the covers. 

Right now, this is for adult books only. You will not receive young adult (YA), middle grade, or children's book recommendations. This service is appropriate for patrons ages 18+.

Tell me how I did! I want to hear your feedback on the recommendations, regardless of if you loved them or if I missed the mark. Feel free to send follow-up or additional requests!

Do you have a Goodreads, Storygraph, or other means of tracking the books you've read? Share it here, so I can avoid sending you books you've already finished! *
Do I have permission to keep your Book Match requests and results on file, so I can continue understanding your taste? If no, I will discard your request for your privacy. *
