Fast & Furious is a section in the library geared toward students who are super busy and feel like they don't have enough time to read, or who don't really like to read. Let's face it: we all have a lot on our plates and sometimes reading gets pushed to the bottom of our to-do lists. There are many reasons people don't read: maybe you're new to the US and don't know what to read; perhaps you have an after-school job, and you don't have a lot of free time; or maybe you just haven't found something you like.

Be sure to also check out the rest of our Short Stories, which are right next to the Fast & Furious section. Short stories are a great way to get into reading without making a huge commitment. Just read the stories you find interesting, and skip those you don't like.Â
