A few years ago, The Australian Women’s Weekly Book Club was formed to tell book lovers about riveting new books and to introduce more people to the joys of reading.
Now that the Book Club is well established, The Australian Women’s Weekly is thrilled to bring you a fantastic new guide that will save readers time and money and lead them to some even more exciting discoveries in the world of books.

About The Great Reads
Everyone, from book-worms to occasional readers, knows that buying a book can be a lottery. There are nearly 10,000 new books published each year in Australia alone, and with new authors springing up all the time, it can be difficult to select the one that is right for you.
The Australian Women’s Weekly makes that task easier with the The AWW Book Club Great Read. Each month, we select one book that comes highly recommended by a dedicated and expert team at The Weekly, a team comprising of people of different ages and tastes, bound by a shared passion for reading and for seeking out memorable books that will become treasured titles on your shelves at home. Our team has the advantage of access to early reviews and news of the popular overseas titles long before they reach the shelves and who’s hot and who’s not, via the London and New York bureaus of The Weekly.
The bottom line is though, if a book is named The Great Read, then you know that the team at AWW have truly loved that book and that they think you will love it too. Stickers titled “The AWW Great Read” will be placed on the front of the book – one of which will be featured in every issue of the magazine – and prominently displayed at most bookshops throughout Australia.
This means your days of wandering around a bookshop, haphazardly trying to find a book for yourself or someone else are at an end. And if you buy an AWW Great Read at your nearest Angus & Robertson book store and present the 10 per cent discount coupon published in this month’s Weekly, you will receive a 10 per cent discount off the recommended retail price. Also, buy an AWW Great Read and one or more of the other books featured on our Book Club pages in the magazine, at Angus & Robertson, present the 15 per cent coupon published in the magazine and receive a discount of 15 per cent off the total recommended retail price.
We wish you many hours of entertainment, enchantment and enlightenment in the world of books.
- These discounts will not apply where A & R has elected to sell books at a discounted price upon release, but customers will be charged whatever is the lesser price, either the A&R discounted price or The AWW Great Read offer.
