The Love2read Reading Group is run by the NSW Readers Advisory Working Group and has been formed as part of the National Year of Reading. This online reading group
“encourages everyone to read and tweet about what they are reading”
Monthly themes have been set to inspire readers to get reading and then to start talking about what they are reading. Discussions might be held via Twitter, on a blog or even face to face….It’s all about sharing! Live twitter sessions on each theme are planned for the end of each month.
January’s theme is Amazing Reads. Love2read is hosting a live twitter discussion on this theme on January 31st, starting at 8.00pm Australian Eastern Standard Time (and lasting until about 10.00pm Western Standard Time). Use the tag #NYR12 as you discuss your Amazing read.
What a great idea…Amazing read..where can you start! I am just finishing Margaret Olley biography FAR FROM A STILL LIFE, and am amazed by how interesting her life was, with so many famous artisit mentioned as good friends, and an intimate portrayal of her days on earth. She mentions her love of train journeys from Sydney to Newcastle..and living out of a basket, travelling between homes in Sydney, Brisbane and Newcastle.
