Warm Winter Read
Grab your book, blanket and beanie – we’re hibernating with books this winter!
As the temperature drops, we want you to make time for yourself (and your chosen story) every day.
From June 1, build your reading habit and log your reading using the Beanstack app, or pick up a progress flyer from the library. You can read for five minutes or five hours; it doesn’t matter.
Start a book from your to-be-read pile, finish that book you started months ago, or find something new while browsing the library shelves.
Not sure where to start? Click the button below or come and chat with us and we’ll get you on your way.
Let us inspire you!
Collect bookmarks with recommended reads from Victorian authors including Sally Hepworth, Tony Birch, JP Pomare, Jennifer Down, Jacinta Parsons, Chris Flynn, Alice Pung and RWR McDonald, or scroll down.
Join the conversation online by sharing your progress through the eight challenge activities using #WarmWinterRead. These are not complusory, but are designed to keep you motivated. The challege activities are:
- Create a cosy reading spot
- Read aloud to a person, pet or plant
- Start a new series OR read the next book in a series you have already started
- Recommend a book you loved, in person or online
- Listen to an audiobook while doing something else
- Read a book set somewhere you’d like to travel to
