Warm Winter Read 2025
The Warm Winter Read is back for 2025!
The Warm Winter Read program encourages adults (16+) across Victoria to strengthen their reading habits. By exploring your current reading practices, you can find more time to enjoy books - and go into an exciting prize draw! Click WWR25 for more information and to sign up for the chance to win some exciting prizes via the Read Books website.
We are also holding a Gannawarra Library Service members only program over winter!
All you need to do to go in the draw to win one of two great prizes is borrow a book (physical, eBook or audio book) and fill out and return to staff the supplied Book Review form, available from any of our branches! If you didn't like the book, that's fine, we want honest reviews! If you loved it, that's great!
Returned reviews will be placed where other members can read them (once names have been removed) so others can gauge whether they might like to read the book too.
The more you read/ listen and review, the more chances you have to win, so get to it!
