Taking the crown as the most checked-out adult title this year at San Jose Public Library branches is Kristin Hannah’s “The Women,” a compelling coming of age story. The prequel to “The Hunger Games,” “The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes” by Suzanne Collins, remains the top pick for teen readers for the second consecutive year. And once again, a Dav Pilkey title comes out on top among children’s books: “Dog Man: The Scarlet Shedder” was the most checked-out title for that age group.
