Using this guide
In this guide we have put together lists of books by:
- Lexile number, so you can have fun while you increase your reading level.
- A Lexile number is a rating for how hard a book is to read.
- The higher the number, the more difficult the word use and sentence length.
- 500 - 790 is "Intermediate"
- 800 and up is "Advanced"
- Lexile numbers go all the way to 1700!
Browse through these books and find something great to read today.
Find your Lexile Range
If you don't already know what your Lexile range is, the best way to find out is to think of a book that you like to read. But don't pick one too easy or too hard! It should be a little bit of a challenge.
- Go to https://hub.lexile.com/find-a-book/
- Find the Quick Search box at the top of the page
- Enter the title of a book that was at a good reading level for you
- Note the Lexile number in the green box. Example: 880L
- Your current Lexile range is 100 below and 50 above that number. Example: 780L - 930L
Once you know your Lexile range, use the red buttons on the left of this page to find books written at that Lexile level (e.g., 500s).
