Warm Winter Read 2025
Warm Winter Read
Winter is here—so it’s the perfect time to slow down, get cosy, and enjoy a good book.
The Warm Winter Read is all about making space for reading in your day. Whether you’re a regular bookworm or just getting started, join thousands of Victorians (16+) in building healthy reading habits this June, July and August.
Reading has some pretty amazing benefits. It can lift your mood, reduce stress, ease loneliness, and even support brain health. It also helps build empathy, boost confidence, and open doors to other cultures and ways of thinking.
All you need to do is track the days you read—any book, any format, any time.
Plus, by taking part, you’ll go in the draw to win some great bookish prizes!
The Warm Winter Read runs from 1 June to 31 August 2025.
