I hope you recall SYNC from last summer. If it is new to you, here is a great opportunity to catch up on classics and current titles. I'd love to hear your experiences from the last two summers in the comments below.
As you may have experienced while downloading audiobooks from the library, you usually have only two weeks to listen to it. The SYNC summer titles are different. The publishers are giving away open copies. The hitch is: you can only download that week's title during that week.
Luckily, you can receive a text message (SMS) reminder on your phone to know when each new title becomes available. Last year I programmed reminders in my email calendar. This year, I may try the texts.
Last year, I really enjoyed The Golem's Eye by Jonathan Stroud, read by Simon Jones, and Laini Taylor's Daughter of Smoke and Bone, read by Khristine Hvam.
Here's the schedule for this summer, beginning May 30 [which means you still have a day or two to catch the first titles!].
You will need the Overdrive software or app to play the audiobooks. You may want to download them on a computer in case you want to listen to several of them (again!) later.
Remember, ebooks count for summer reading at Ruidoso Public Library. Comment below or on this blog's Summer Reading Program page to tell Cheryl and Kari Dawn which books you downloaded to read or listen to. If you are under 13, ask your parent or guardian to help with an email address.
