A spokesman said: “These events are designed to be friendly and accessible allowing attendees to celebrate books, reading and wellbeing.
“Both will be followed by a book sale and book signing. It is free to attend both sessions and tickets need to be booked in advance through Eventbrite by searching for: In Conversation with Ayisha Malik & Kate Harrison and In Conversation with Harriet Evans & Sophie Ward.
“These two events have been inspired by the BBC’s Novels That Shaped Our World campaign, which West Sussex County Council Libraries participated in last year.

“At the end of the project the service was awarded additional funding which has been used to hold these in-person events at Worthing and Crawley Library.”
