Look across the Internet today and youll find a mass amount of summer reading lists. Vox, The New York Times and The Washington Post have all published lists aimed to help adults find their next summer reading book.

But how do you choose just one book off the list?

Well, theres an app that can help, called whichbook. It allows users to find a book to read by selecting how happy or sad, funny or serious, safe or disturbing, expected or unpredictable they want their book to be.

After deciding what they want from their book, the app will filter out a list of books for users to choose from.

Head over to whichbooks main page to find your next summer read.

Monthly winners receive $100, with the annual winner getting a $1,000 scholarship.

The Exchange Club has been recognizing students for more than 30 years.

Odom will go on to compete in the Georgia District Exchange Club against students from across the state.
