Summer Reading 2025 theme:
Level Up at Your Library!
The theme (sponsored by MA Public Libraries)encourages teens to engage with reading in a playful and exciting way, similar to leveling up in a video game!
This year, the Medfield High School summer reading program for grades 9-12 is theme-based. We want every student to choose a book that speaks to them! Instead of providing a list of “must read” titles, we would like students to choose a book that they believe fits in with the theme of “Level Up at Your Library."
Expectations: All students must choose one book to read this summer. The book does not need to come from any of the lists below. Students will be asked to write about the book in their English classes when school starts in the fall.
Do you need help finding a book??
