Wairarapa Library fuels book clubs

March 12, 2024 March 2024 No Comments

Reading needn’t be a solitary activity. 

Neither does the pleasure have to end when you turn over the last page. Every book we’ve enjoyed can be relished anew when we talk about them (ok, gush) with someone else. 

What’s even better is to embark on the same reading adventure with a group of friends. 

Whether you’re already part of a book club, or keen to start your own, Wairarapa Library Service has curated a selection of literary dazzlers to satisfy every taste. You can now also borrow book club sets from other SMART libraries. 

Each book club set contains ten copies of the same title with some notes and questions to help get the discussion going. 

To search for, and reserve, these sets, simply type in book club set and you will see what is available for borrowing. 

For more information, please visit www.wls.org.nz, email library@wls.org.nz or pop into your nearest library. 

Happy reading!
