Use Your Voice to Choose America’s Best-Loved Novel This fall on PBS, 100 novels will compete for the prestigious title of America’s Best-Loved Novel. PBS’ The Great American Read is an eight-week television series that explores these titles in depth and showcases just why they are so treasured in our society. And we want you to be a part of the discussion! On Wednesday, September 5 at 6 PM, we’ll be kicking off The Great American Read by watching the special, two-hour launch that reveals all 100 titles that made the initial cut. Then, starting Tuesday, September 11, join us every Tuesday at 6 PM until October 23 as we take an even closer look at these titles. Each episode is one hour long and will be followed with discussion as well as a chance to win some neat prizes! So how can you be sure your favorite book wins? You can vote once a day, every day on PBS’ website here. Love more than one of the 100 books featured? No worries! Vote for one favorite on Monday, and another favorite on Tuesday.
