Whidbey Reads is an annual program that brings Whidbey Island residents together to read and talk about a common book. A series of public events focuses on themes related to the story and the shared experience serves as a springboard to explore commonalities and differences.
For 2020, the Whidbey Reads Committee picked Frankel’s 2017 novel, “This Is How It Always Is.” It was a Pacific Northwest Book Award finalist and won the Washington State Book Award.
