National Poetry Day - 24th August
Have you heard about National Poetry Day? It's on this Friday, 24th August and so to celebrate, we are inviting you to our libraries for some DIY poetry. We have all the building blocks you'll need to create your very own poem, whether it's book spine poetry, blackout poetry or using magnetic words to put together.
We'd love to see you in the library this week for you to Unleash the Power of Poetry.
September Book Club Meeting
Hello, book-lovers!
A good turn-out of you at our August Meeting, to discuss your various women authors. Nora Roberts is obviously flavour of the month, as we had two titles by her in the mix this time round: ‘The Liar’ and ‘Shelter in Place’. Both books were warmly recommended by those who read them.
With Spring just around the corner, the group is getting a little adventurous, venturing out of the Fiction pond and into the Non-Fiction sea. Specifically, you are invited to dip into the following sections: the 300s, 500s or 800s.
So go ahead, dive right in and see what treasures you come up with!
Next meeting is Friday September 7th, 4pm at the Te Aroha Library.

August Book Club Meeting
Greetings, book-lovers!
The Authors-Beginning-With-A topic brought out a wonderful range of reading material, from Jeffrey Archer to Midge Albom, with most of the books you read being described as ‘very interesting’, and the Archer novel, ‘Cometh the Hour’ as ‘very good’ and ‘enjoyable’, so we’ll make an executive decision and name that one Read of the Month, this time round.
Our next meeting is on Friday 3rd August, from 4pm at the Te Aroha Library. Our theme is Women Writers.
Plenty of scope there! Can’t wait to see what/ who you come up with!
