If you’re in a reading group or book club in Norwich or Norfolk then check out Summer Reads. Between May and July the Writers Centre Norwich and Norfolk Library Services are inviting readers, reading groups and book clubs to read, meet and talk about five brilliantly written and readable books. Perfect whether you’re in a book club looking for sure fire hits to share, or a lone reader just wanting something good to read.
But reading the books is just the start – with Summer Reads you can fully immerse yourself in the world of the book and meet lots of other people too. Download loads of extra info and resources on the books; meet the authors of the books in their special events; meet other readers at book clubs and book quizzes and join the buzz online. Last but not least, you can win some book tokens by voting for your favourite read.
