Favourite 2023 Reads: NFPL Staff Edition
It’s no surprise that library staff love reading so, naturally, we asked our staff to tell us what books they loved reading this year. And, yes, it was as difficult as you may expect to narrow it down to just one (or three). If you want more of our favourites to choose from, each location has a display of staff picks you can browse this month.
