Discover our authors' top reads

20 April 2021

What does your favourite author like to read? We asked a few of our World Book Night authors for their top recommendations – the books that make them smile, the books that inspire them and more. Head to our Bookshop.org affiliate page to see recommendations from Nina Stibbe, Mohsin Zaidi and Beth O’Leary .

Bookshop.org is an online bookshop with a mission to financially support local independent bookshops. If you buy a book through the World Book Night affiliate page, you can support the The Reading Agency and independent bookshops at no additional cost to you.
