Get Caught Reading on SEPTA

Books on train seat

There is no better challenge than Get Caught Reading Month in May! The Association of American Publishers founded the Get Caught Reading campaign in 1999 to promote the joy of reading books—physical or digital—anywhere and anytime. Including on a bus, trolley, and train!

Reading on the go turns travel time into personal time. A good book can make a daily commute feel a little less routine.

We tapped one of our resident readers (she commutes every day on the Trenton Line) to provide a list of her recent reads so we can all get caught reading! These are in no particular order.
