At this year’s RA in a Day workshop we asked for your “must read” books, and you gave us a phenomenal list of 25 titles. The list crossed genres and age groups, fiction and non-fiction, and featured new favourites and old classics. You can find the titles below listed in alphabetical order by author. Check out our poll and tell us how many you’ve read!
