Want to lighten the load this summer and escape into a book? Below, you will find a wide array of genres, authors, experiences, and characters offering many opportunities and paths to lose yourself in different works, learn and unlearn, and experience the world through the lens of someone else. Challenge yourself to read widely and step into others' shoes through the power of stories. We hope you find many opportunities this summer to lose yourself in books. All of the titles are available through Destiny Discover and the Seattle Public Library.
If the title of the book is blue, you can click on it to be directed to the digital audio version of the book in our collection. Then click Open and then you'll need to log in with your NWS username and the password Welcome2023.
If you'll be a new student at Northwest next school year, e-mail Alicia.Kalan@northwestschool.org and we can set you up an account early.
