June – August 2025

Cosy up with a good book this winter and fall in love with reading!

The Warm Winter Read encourages readers aged 16+ across Victoria to cultivate healthy reading habits and to find more time to enjoy books over the cooler months.

How to participate

To participate, register online through the Vic Reads website or by using a paper reading journal available at all libraries from 1 June.

Then, simply track and log your reading between 1 June and 31 August. You can read for 5 minutes or 5 hours; it doesn’t matter.
