We were at the @uklitassociation.bsky.social & @openuni-rfp.bsky.social conference on Friday, discussing how to get more teens reading.

It was a superb conference and good to see schools presenting about our Summer Book Club programme.

Summer Book Club finale with Joseph Coelho

Looking back to last Thursday's #SummerBookClub finale 🎉

Huge thanks to Joseph Coelho for sharing his author journey & exciting insights into 'Relic Hamilton, Genie Hunter'.

TY also to @walkerbooksuk.bsky.social & all the schools and pupils who joined in!

#ThrowbackThursday #ReadingForPleasure

There's a storm raging in Eerie-on-Sea. Has the mighty Gargantis come back from the deep...? #thesea #R4Today #summerbookclub #bookrecommendations #readingforpleasure thebookseekers.com/book/thomas-...

A Kobo Libra Colour is showing the opening lines of IT by Stephen King with a note “epic opening line”. It’s sitting in a wooden table in a coffee shop near an oxidized metal window frame. The coffee is iced and black.

So incredibly excited to be spending my summer in Derry. This is my first time reading IT by Stephen King. It has already grabbed hold of me so tightly. 🎈 #stephenking #itthebook #whatimreading #summerbookclub #coffeeandbooks #booksky

#SummerBookClub 🧵 4/6

If you haven’t heard of Summer Book Club, it’s a free initiative to help students transition from primary to secondary school.

It’s a time that can feel daunting and when children may stop reading for pleasure.

#SummerBookClub 🧵 3/6

But what book will it be? 🤔

Choice is a big factor in encouraging reading for pleasure, so current year 7s are once again selecting the book.

We’ll reveal the chosen title at the end of the month - stay tuned! 📖
