📚 Two brilliant bookish events coming to Radcliffe on Trent this September! 📚

We’ve got lots happening at One More Chapter this autumn, but here are two September dates we’d love our local community to know about…

🐾 MEET THE GRUFFALO – Saturday 12th September

To celebrate the release of the brand-new Gruffalo Granny, we’re being joined by a VERY special visitor… The Gruffalo himself! 🌳🐭

Perfect for little Gruffalo fans, come along for a fun-filled session celebrating Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s much-loved world. There’ll be a chance to meet the Gruffalo, take photos, enjoy activities and celebrate the new book with us.

We’re running two 45-minute sessions at the Boys Brigade Hall in Radcliffe on Trent, aimed at roughly ages 3–8.

📖 You can also add a copy of Gruffalo Granny to your booking to take home afterwards!

✍️ LOCAL AUTHOR SHOWCASE – Saturday 26th September, 1–4pm

This is a brand-new event for us and one we’re really excited about!

We’re bringing together over 20 local authors under one roof at The Grange Hall, Radcliffe on Trent, giving you the chance to wander around, discover new books, chat to the people who wrote them and buy signed copies directly from the authors.

There’ll be a real mix of genres and books to discover, and it’s a lovely opportunity to see just how much writing talent we have right here on our doorstep. ❤️

Whether you’re looking for your next read, want to support local writers or simply fancy an afternoon surrounded by books and bookish people, come and join us!

You can find full details and book tickets for our September events over on the One More Chapter website.

We’d love to see lots of local faces there! 📚✨

BUT… I can’t let this list go by without mentioning that my two favourite reads of the year haven’t made it! 😭

Holiday reading mode: ON ☀️📖💦

There’s something about reading by the pool that just makes a book approximately 87% better… even with the chaos happening in the background 😂

Currently reading Rules of the Heart by Janice Hadlow — historical fiction, Jane Austen vibes and a little bit of romance… basically perfect holiday reading.

Now the important question: what’s everyone else reading on holiday this summer? 👀📚

These have just arrived... and I have a feeling they're going to be very popular. 📚✨

The A Little History of... series from Yale covers everything from art and literature to philosophy, archaeology, music and economics, all in beautifully designed, easy-to-dip-into paperbacks.

Perfect if you've always wanted to learn a little more about a subject but didn't know where to start. They'd also make such lovely gifts for the endlessly curious.

Which one would you take home first? 👇💛

04/08/2026

💙 The Queen of Crime meets the Queen of the Modern Thriller. 💙

This September sees the release of Agatha Christie: Miss Marple – The Trailblazing Detective by the brilliant Lucy Foley.

Known for bestselling mysteries including The Hunting Party, The Guest List, The Paris Apartment and The Midnight Feast, Lucy Foley is the perfect person to celebrate one of fiction's most iconic detectives. Clever, atmospheric and full of insight, this is sure to be a must-have for Christie fans.

If you'd like us to reserve you a copy, just send us a message with your name and phone number, and we'll add you to our order list ready for publication in September. 📚🔎💙
