The Dal Reads team is excited to announce our 2014 shortlist:

Mr. Penumbra’s 24-Hour Bookstore – Robin Sloan

The Antagonist – Lynn Coady

Reality Boy – A.S. King

We selected these  titles from a list of suggestions by student volunteers based on three criteria that we felt were important to an interesting and engaging Dal Reads experience:

1. The book  must be able to generate discussion and exchange of ideas
2. The book must be appealing to a broad range of readers of varying ages, literacy levels, and life experience
3. The book must be strongly written with elements that will generate excitement among readers

Now, it’s your turn – What do you think of our top three choices? Which of these books would get your vote? The final decision will be based on your input,  so leave us a comment or find us on media to let us know what you think Dal should read in 2014.

We look forward to hearing from you!
