We had a big delivery of Penguin books yesterday with so many amazing titles! 📚 Here's Chris holding two of the history books and a tennis book that he wants to read! 👀 It's so lovely to see our shelves restocked - especially our classics section and our section of translated books!

We're open tomorrow and over the weekend as usual. Pop by to browse or for a cup of coffee or a glass of something 📚☕🍷

We also have an offer on beer at the moment to celebrate the world cup ⚽🍻

And we still have plenty of tote bags and vouchers to give out to people if they buy two books or spend more than £25! ❤️

It's been two weeks since we finished reorganising the tables and bookshelves in the shop. I think it's safe to say the new tables and bench were a good decision - the bench is definitely a new favourite spot ❤️☕🍷🌞

Non fiction has been expanded and is now in the left back next to the kids books, and YA books have moved to the right next to the fiction and fantasy section 📚
