Event 80 Friday 12 March 8.15pmAl Baraha 3Has the growth of social media changed the way you read, or the way you think and talk about books? Tweetups, groups, fan pages, apps and all manner of other innovations are now available to the reader who wants to share, with friends and strangers, the joys of a good book; authors are also embracing the opportunity to speak directly to their fans in a way not previously possible.

An informal gathering of readers and authors who use social media and the web to enhance their reading experience, moderated by Alexander McNabb.
