Event description

The Library team are excited to invite you to our winter edition of Book Chat with the Vision Australia Library.

Join us online for our quarterly book chat to hear our Senior Librarian, Marnie Rose-Smith, provide a review of two newly released books. She’ll discuss the authors, their previous works, and most importantly, deliver a no holds barred appraisal of their new novel. Not to be outdone, our host Vi Nguyen will also provide a review of the new release book he’s been reading.

And then it’s your turn! We’re inviting library members to share what they’ve been reading and provide a review of their most recent read. This is your opportunity to claim two minutes of fame and become a Vision Australia Library Book Reviewer.

If everyone gives a review of one book they’ve enjoyed reading, you’re sure to walk away with a wealth of winter reading ideas! If you would prefer to sit back and listen, that’s perfectly fine - every reviewer needs an audience!

We’ll conclude the session with a discussion of Marnie’s favourite genre, Detective and Mystery Books. This is one of the most popular genres in the Vision Australia Library, so I’m sure there’ll be lots of contributions.

Who is it for?

Our Cosy Winter Book Chat is a wonderful opportunity for our Vision Australia Library members and librarians to come together for a fun and informal chat about our favourite books.

We warmly welcome all our members to join us, irrespective of the depth or breadth of your bookshelf. Take an hour out of your day, relax and join us to chat about our shared passion - books!
