Book Swap & Reading Night: Give Your Books a Second Life and Reset Your Reading Routine
Description
Got books you’ve finished or never quite got around to? Give them a second life at our Book Swap & Reading Night on Tuesday, August 13.
This event is all about making space for new stories, both in your hands and in your habits. Swap books with fellow readers, enjoy quiet time to dive into a story, and reset your approach to reading with a mindset-focused workshop by Lulu Skantze, founder of Storytime.
