We were put into groups with students from other schools to allow us to discuss the books we preferred. It was interesting to see how opinions differed and the group leaders made us feel very included and welcome with everyone having a chance to contribute. The different schools did presentations on the books, explaining what they enjoyed, and explaining context and the plot of the book. We voted for 'The Lies we tell ourselves' by Robin Talley as the winner for Barnet. We were hoping to buy a signed copy of the book at the end of the day but unfortunately the book resellers did not arrive in time.  We enjoyed the event as it was a good opportunity to read some new books and to work with other students from across Barnet.
