Reading room’s bestselling book list in October featured Jade Kake and Jeremy Hansen’s handsome tome Rewi: Āta haere, kia tere, and Steve Braunias had some comments on the book:
‘Rewi is likely the most beautifully, sumptuously designed book of the year, a publishing masterpiece; it's a tribute to the late architect Rewi Thompson (Ngāti Porou, Ngāti Raukawa), told in 456 pages with plans, drawings, sketches and photos. Jeremy Hansen describes Thompson's famous house in Kohimarama as "mysteriously aloof" and the book draws ever closer to his genius.’
