Quick Reads are short books and great stories by bestselling authors. They’re specifically written to engage emergent, reluctant and lapsed readers to help spread the joy of reading and the many benefits it brings. 

Quick Reads are perfect for using as a whole group college, workplace, prison or community read as they have wide appeal and are accessible to a broad range of reading abilities. We also recommend for anyone who struggles with reading, for a variety of reasons including dementia, brain injury recovery, attention deficit, dyslexia and other reasons.

Learning resources, social media assets, toolkits and discussion guides will soon be available on the Quick Reads resources database in 2026.
