Hibernate With a Book This Winter

Winter is the season of retreat: nights draw in, the air is crisp, and the best adventures are often found between the covers of a book. While the world outside slows down, epic quest stories invite us to embark on long journeys filled with danger, courage, and wonder, all from the comfort of our favourite reading spot. Quest tales are about endurance, discovery, and transformation. They sweep us across strange lands, bring us face to face with challenges, and leave us changed at the end of the journey. In the stillness of winter, these sprawling narratives give us the chance to lose ourselves in other worlds and live vicariously through heroes on great adventures.

So settle in, there’s something deeply satisfying about giving yourself over to a quest story in winter. They take time, sometimes days, or even weeks to unfold, but that’s part of their magic. In hibernation mode, when the outside world slows down, there’s no better time to get lost in an adventure that spans kingdoms, oceans, and even worlds.

Visit your local library and pick up an epic and let your imagination wander further than the frost on your windowpane.
