Thank you Ennis Book Club Festival!

We had a great response in Ennis to our “100 Books!” It was heart warming to see people walking around Ennis, queuing in cafes, having a pint, chatting – with our “100 Books” reading guide under their arm....


Our 100 Books project went on tour to County Clare in March, to the 8th annual Ennis Book Club Festival. This is a major social and literary gathering in the Irish literary calendar. Book club members and readers from all over the country and beyond enjoyed meeting literary greats including Donal Ryan, Dervla Murphy and Martin Sixsmith.

Our event wowed an audience of over 100 in the Temple Gate Hotel on Saturday. What better forum to bring people together and get them thinking and talking about Difference through Reading!

So what’s next for our project? 
Watch this space. Also, watch out for the next issue of the journal “Books Ireland” which is running a special feature on our “100 Books”.
