Please tell us what you think


We are very interested in what you think of the books you get from your library. So interested that we came up with a scheme to make it easier to share your views. We call it book reviews, Bradley style. 

We have been pasting stickers into new books  

like this 
that ask you describe the book you just read in one word. 

It is surprisingly hard to do. (True confessions: I cheated on my first one and used two words :) It's also causes you to pause and think about what you've just read in a very interesting way. 

Here are a few one-word reviews: 
  • George Washington's Secret Six (Kilmeade): Illuminating
  • Horns (Hill): Macabre
  • Humans of New York (Stanton): Beautiful  
  • Leaders Eat Last (Sinek): Inspiring  
  • The Lowland (Lahiri): Gorgeous 
  • Ten Years in the Tub (Hornby): Wide-ranging
  • The Way of All Fish (Grimes): Boring
  • What If... (MacLaine): Shirley makes us think!

We hope you'll join in book reviews, Bradley style. 

If you would like to write a longer review, please email to to sharlene@bradleybeachlibrary.org or drop it off at the desk. 

We want to know what you think!
