What says Christmas like crime books?

This year to celebrate the festive season we’re having a Christmas crime kilo sale - perfect for the crime readers in your life.

£5 a kilo (equates to about 4 paperbacks, normally £3/4 each!)

4-7 pm in the shop, Thursday the 11th and 18th of December 📚

CHARITY OF THE MONTH: NOVEMBER - THE WELCOMING

Hi! We recently had these lovely wee books in the shop and it made me think of you. 🐞

And speaking of love and reading, fancy a blind date - with a book? They're flying off the shelves (spinning rack) and here's just a few of the stories you can spend some cosy time with. Pop in and take home what will hopefully be your perfect match.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑👭👬👫 In the mood for love...or something like it? You can find our 'racier' titles on the top shelf in the non-fiction room. But we've also loads of light-hearted/dramatic/LGBTQIA+ love in the Romance section - and some in Summer Reads.
