03.01.2022 If you are looking for some 'next book to read' inspiration check out our 'Australia Reads' playlist on YouTube. This is a great collection of our staff's favourite reads, books they love and books they didn't like. It may just point you in the direction of a great new read, something we all need right now!

02.01.2022 Did you know, the fear of running out of something to read is called Abibliophobia. Hopefully we can stop that ever happening to you!
