This is for the horror fans, the ones who are up all night, who love to be scared by a good book...

Introducing our new HORROR BOOK CLUB: Up All Night

This is our first in-person book club at the bookshop, by bookseller and horror fanatic, Fern!

Our first book is Victorian Psycho by Virginia Feito, and we’ll be meeting at the end of June to discuss this historical horror.

Spaces are very limited. To join, please sign up on our website.

Showing my mum my indie bookshop for the very first time!

As you know, I’m from Canada and that’s where all of my family still live, including my wonderful mum. While she’s been fully involved with The Mysterious Bookcase from the start, and she’s been so supportive of the brick-and-mortar bookshop online and in video calls, she has finally made the trip over to the UK, and is seeing our indie bookshop in person for the first time!

My heart is so full 🥰🥹❤️ and of course, mum is an honorary bookseller at The Mysterious Bookcase while she’s here!
