It’s time to cast your vote for the 24th annual One Read community reading title. Our reading panel narrowed the list of community-nominated books down to two finalists: “The Measure” by Nikki Erlick and “North Woods” by Daniel Mason. Both of these thought-provoking novels tell stories of complex, interconnected characters, the decisions they make and how those decisions affect the people — and the world — around them. You can vote April 7-25.
