Genre Journeys: A Book Chat Series - Wallsend Library

Monday 11 May | Monday 13 July | Monday 14 September | Monday 16 November 2026
11 days from now
5:30 - 6:30pm
1 hour per session

Join us for our Book Chat Series, a relaxed and welcoming space for readers who love talking about books just as much as reading them. Each session explores a different genre, offering a chance to broaden your reading horizons, hear fresh perspectives and pick up inspiring recommendations from fellow book lovers. 

From crime to the classics, fantasy, science fiction and graphic novels, every session invites curious readers to dip into something new or revisit a favourite genre. There’s no set reading list and no pressure to finish a particular book, just bring along what you’ve been reading lately, what you’ve loved (or didn’t!) and your curiosity. 

Whether you’re a lifelong reader or getting back into the habit, this is a friendly opportunity to connect with others, enjoy lively conversation and discover your next great read - all over a cuppa in a relaxed, social setting.

  • 11 May - Crime
