Andrew with 'Old Records Never Die' by Eric Spitznagel (2016). From State Library of South Australia Facebook post, 20 December 2016: "Next in the State Library's #ourfavouritereadsin2016 Andrew. Not only our online services guru, but a well respected muso about town - as reflected by his choice. 'Old Records Never Die' by Eric Spitznagel (2016) The memories one's record collection can bring - the scratch on the disc, the phone number written on the cover, the music inside and the people he listened to them with... A man of a certain age looks for his lost record collection - not copies, but the exact same records. (If they meant that much, why did he get rid of them? I don't get it.) Also, this was given to me by someone very dear. - Andrew"

Anna with 'Mr Huff' - Anna Walker Books (2015); and 'My Dead Bunny' by Sigi Cohen, illustrated by James Foley (2015). From State Library of South Australia Facebook post, 23 December 2016: "Not one but two additions to #ourfavouritereadsin2016 Anna calls the shots on our information desk but also finds time to be part of the SA Branch of the Children's Book Council of Australia. 'Mr Huff' - Anna Walker Books (2015); and 'My Dead Bunny' by Sigi Cohen, illustrated by James Foley (2015) We have all had bad days where we have woken up on the 'wrong side of the bed'. Bill is having such a day, and Mr Huff just gets bigger and bigger! A delightful book for young people about dark and sunny days in their lives. Aimed at older children, My Dead Bunny describes how a zombie bunny named Brad returns to haunt his human family. This is a funny and offbeat picture book with rhyming text. Definitely one for those who love creepy and unexpected stories. -Anna"

Annette with 'The Great Swindle' by Pierre Lemaitre (2015). From State Library of South Australia Facebook post, 19 December 2016: "One of the best reads from the whole year. An intriguing story set against the backdrop of the chaos in France immediately after the First World War. Normally we hear very little about surviving soldiers and tend to focus on glorifying the dead. The chaos after the war and the lack of government or society support for these broken men, expected to fend for themselves, is graphically portrayed in this novel which has the most marvelous twist. - Annette"

Anthony with 'The Photograph' by Penelope Lively (2003). From State Library of South Australia Facebook post, 13 December 2016: "As 2016 winds up, some of us at the State Library have decided it might be fun to share our favourite books read this year. It was Anthony's idea, so he can go first! #ourfavouritereadsin2016 'The Photograph' by Penelope Lively (2003) Liveley's stock in trade is the exploration of how the past - including its physical detritus - casts shadows on the present. When several years after her death, Kath's husband Glyn discovers a revealing photograph of his late wife, he and all those close to her must re-assess not just the happy woman they thought they knew, but their own failings in the lead-up to her death. A sad and beautiful story, warning us not to take one another for granted. - Anthony"

Chris with 'One' by Patrick Holland. From State Library of South Australia Facebook post, 15 December 2016: "More of #ourfavouritereadsin2016 from State Library staff. Chris organises our nominations for the Dublin Literary Award. He's a man who knows a good book! 'One' by Patrick Holland Truly excellent. I couldn't put this book down in the evenings, except to sleep. The author has used an old time way with words to transport us back to the highlands and plains of central Queensland, where bushrangers roamed and police gave chase. He gives the characters a hefty dose of human frailty, both meanness and compassion, conveying the harshness of life in the Australian bush at the turn of the 20th century. - Chris"

Emily with 'Everyone Brave Is Forgiven' by Chris Cleave Chris Cleave. From State Library of South Australia Facebook post, 14 December 2016: "As 2016 winds up, some of us at the State Library have decided it might be fun to share our favourite books read this year. Today it is Emily's turn. #ourfavouritereadsin2016 'Everyone Brave Is Forgiven' by Chris Cleave Chris Cleave Everyone Brave Is Forgiven is my favourite 2016 read. Set in the Second World War in London and Malta, it is a sweeping epic filled with unforgettable characters, cultural insights, and vivid imagery. Chris Cleave is a masterful storyteller and a sensitive chronicler of the interplay between the personal and the political - telling the stories of the alienated, the bereaved, the elite and the battered. - Emily"
