Writers, Readers and Stories

BookChat2020.jpg

Enjoy a range of literary events at our libraries or online.  We connect writers and readers together via storytelling events, author talks, writing workshops and book groups.  

Share your love of reading at one of our book discussion groups. Some book groups meet to discuss a set book or short story each month and some are open to discussing your current or favourite reads.

Read Now Book Club

The Read Now Book Club is a book club for readers who wish to read books from our Read Now collection and meet other readers for lively discussion.  

Each month we pick one title from our popular Read Now collection to read as a group, then come together to discuss it. Copies of the chosen titles are made available for club members to borrow each month.
