Beginning on 1 June and running until 31 August, Warm Winter Read 2023 is the statewide reading program for adults. 

Featuring recommendations from Victorian authors Sally Hepworth, Tony Birch, JP Pomare, Jennifer Down, Jacinta Parsons, Chris Flynn, Alice Pung, and R.W.R McDonald. 

The 2023 reading challenges include:

  1. Create a cosy reading spot
  2. Read aloud to a person, pet or plant
  3. Start a new series OR read the next book in a series you have already started
  4. Recommend a book you loved, in person or online
  5. Listen to an audiobook while doing something else
  6. Read a book set somewhere you’d like to travel to

Drop into a branch to pick up your Reading Journal and selection of Warm Winter Read bookmarks. Alternatively, you can register via the Beanstack app and activate your challenges there. 

There's some great bookish prizes up for grabs - by registering on Beanstack or returning your entry form from your Reading Journal to the library, you'll automatically go into the draw to win. Good luck! 

PLUS there's a $50 Robinsons Bookshop voucher up for grabs, exclusively for Frankston City Libraries Members!
