Turn a new leaf on reading

COLLINS Booksellers Swan Hill has opened at 208 Campbell Street just in time for Mother’s Day.

If the mum in your life loves to read, the store offers a range of titles sure to intrigue and entertain for week’s to come.

Always popular with female readers is author Danielle Steele.

With a huge range of titles, Steele’s stories capture a range of emotions tied into both everyday and extreme situations with rich characters you can’t help but fall in love with.

If you’re not sold on a specific author, the crime and mystery genre is a favourite amongst women who enjoy a classic who-done-it tale.

Jalena Dokic’s first foray into publishing is another great option with Unbreakable.

The former world No. 4 Australian tennis players reveals her incredible survival story; how she overcame adversity, poverty and violence to rise to the top of the tennis world.

Dokic’s book Fearless is another title that demonstrates the power to thrive through adversity.

Beatrix Bakes Another Slice by author and baker Natalie Paul is an all-new compilation of colourful, creative recipes to delight fans and newcomers alike.

Collins also stock a range of bookmarks, book lights, puzzles, colouring books and also offer gift vouchers.

If you’re not sure on what title to choose, head into the store where the friendly staff can point you in the right direction.
