BWG Library staff are avid readers. They read novels, thrillers, and horror books. They listen to audiobooks and read ebooks. They try recipes from the newest cookbooks and crafts from our DIY collection. They take dozens of books home to their families and read picture books, YA books and children’s novels. So when we promote our annual compilation staff picks we compile a diverse selection of books from all over our collection. Some of our favourites this year are featured in this week’s BWG Picks. You can find all of our picks in our December Book Bundle available now at the Library.
