Lake Travis Reads

"A One Book One Community Program"

Sponsored by libraries of Lake Travis, Bee Cave and Spicewood

What if everyone read the same book at the same time?

Welcome to Lake Travis Area One Book One Community (OBOC) Web site.  OBOC is a community-wide reading program.  People from all walks of life are encouraged to read and discuss important issues raised by a single book.

Members of our community vote and choose one book as the official One Book One Community selection.  A variety of community partners collaborate to bring the area interesting programming and events throughout the year that compliment the books selected.

The point of One Book One Community is to provide readers with a shared reading experience that leads to open dialogue.

Anyone can participate.  Pick up the current book at your local library or bookstore and get reading!

Thus far, the Lake Travis Reads OBOC program has selected two books from two excellent sets of choices.  a number of programs, discussion groups and events have accompanied the reading of the selections.  Another selection will be made later this year.  Please use this web site to learn about the choices and selections of the past and to learn about the selections for the future.

Watch this web site for information regarding the next book selection. Then go to one of the participating libraries (Bee Cave, Lake Travis or Spicewood) or your favorite book store to get the book.
