Notes:
THIS EVENT WILL BE HELD ONLINE AND IN PERSON AT THE QFHS FAMILY HISTORY RESEARCH CENTRE i.e. A HYBRID MEETING. Our book club is designed for family historians. Share your favourite reads in a relaxed setting. There's no requirement to read a particular book. High brow, low brow - we don't care as long as we're enjoying good writing and discovering something along the way. In this Book Club, our theme is Biographies. The National Biography Award shortlist will be announced this month. Choose one of the past winners to read and share your thoughts with the group on why it won the Award?. Find a list of the 2021 Finalists at the State Library of NSW https://content-lists.sl.nsw.gov.au/tabular-list/national-biography-award-2021 Would you have shortlisted the book? How did the author develop the character in the early chapters? What elements contribute to a gripping or fascinating read? Perhaps you have read a book from this year's shortlist? Who do you think are the hot contenders for this year and why? The Book Club events are Members Only events. Non-members are encouraged to have a look at all of the activities of the society. In particular, check out the Members Lounge webpage where all members only events are listed. If you feel keen to attend these activities, please join us.
