Big Book Club Minimize

Courier Mail Big Book Club Logo

The Big Book Club Incorporated is a not for profit arts organization.

Their mission is to promote reading, the discussion of books and the promotion of Australian authors.

Not an earth shattering new concept - book clubs have existed for years, but there are elements that make The Big Book Club unique.

Firstly, the sheer scale of the project. The 'club' is open to everyone! There are no joining fees and it's up to you as to whether your register or not. You can participate when and how you wish.

Secondly, the author of each month's selected book visits South Australia and Queensland and travels to various regional areas to meet their readers.
