COMP CLOSED: ‘What Writers Read’ edited by Pandora Sykes

We’re closing in on the final days of 2022 – and this week’s giveaway book seems fitting. It’s a collection of What Writers Read – with 35 writers sharing their favourite book (and some words about why it’s their favourite!), edited by Pandora Sykes. We have three copies to be won.

Time and again, writers are asked the same questions about their favourite books:

What are they?
What's the book you wish you had written?
What's the book that changed your life?

In ‘What Writers Read’, Pandora Sykes – herself a voracious, omnivorous reader – collects short essays from bestselling and beloved writers, to discover the books they hold most dearly… because they made them who they are.

Curated and introduced by the award-winning writer and broadcaster Pandora Sykes, ‘What Writers Read’ is a love letter to reading and the life-changing power of books.

What a fabulous sounding “love letter to reading” – and perhaps you can guess what we’d like to know as the last grains of sand fall through this year’s hourglass. Tell us which book you read in 2022 was YOUR favourite – and why (in less than 25 words). It doesn’t have to have come out this year; just any book you read in 2022. Our three favourite entries will win a copy of this book!

Entries close midday (Syd/Mel time) Monday 2 January 2023.

THIS COMPETITION HAS NOW CLOSED. THANKS FOR YOUR ENTRIES! WINNERS WILL BE CONTACTED BY EMAIL AND ANNOUNCED IN OUR NEWSLETTER.
