World Book Night at Treorchy

Just got home from giving away World Book Night books at Treorchy Library. What a wonderful experience!! So unlike the last years' WBN where the reception of the books was "apprehensive". Today, people welcomed the opportunity to read with a smile!! I attribute this mostly to the wonderful enthusiasm of our librarian! She posted WBN posters and told people about it way in advance before the actual event. Then she provided teas and coffees. And there were four other WBN givers there and we got to chat a little bit. It was a very nice experience indeed!! So a huge thank you to our dear librarian, Angela and to everybody who came to participate in the WBN event at Treorchy library!!
Thank you to the Treorchy Library for hosting the World Book Night in our neck of woods!

  2. I learned about World Book Night when I was at a BookCrossing Convention in Dublin. Apparently they team up with BookCrossing in the UK/Ireland. When I was out in Central Park yesterday, I saw a couple of people handing out copies of The Hunger Games. Super cool!
