Lirra’s Book Club
Lirra’s Book Club is a new initiative that seeks to encourage students to read more widely and with a more critical lens on various relevant on-going issues. Every month, a chosen text will be discussed with participants – be it readers or experts! – contributing towards the development of participants’ interest and/or knowledge in various topics, as well as promote a stronger, well-knit community of readers in NUS
Coming up next
