Christmas cheer


We have been waiting for a while for our new slat wall to arrive, but here it is, just in time for Christmas.
It will take a little longer to organize the shelving, but as the sign says, it will be awesome and we hope that you will agree. We also hope you are enjoying the new ipad catalogues. 

Don't forget we close at 4.30pm on Christmas Eve so visit us well before 
then if you need supplies for the holidays.


2016 will, of course bring more books for you to read, so if we don't see you next week, 
we'll look out for you after January 4th, 2016 (see our webpage for holiday details).

We wish you a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year.

Oh baby it's cold outside



I know, it's winter. It's cold outside but now the snowmen have melted, maybe it's time to retreat inside to the warm coziness and find a nook to read a book or two. We have a selection on display just perfect for now.
So whether it's a chill read, a chilling read, or a warm you up on a chilly night read, visit us and borrow a pile.

New Book Club Kit




Is your Book Club looking for a thrilling read?


Here's our latest Book Club Kit - An officer and a spy by Robert Harris
Tempting? It's available now...


"Robert Harris returns to the thrilling historical fiction he has so brilliantly made his own. This is the story of the infamous Dreyfus affair told as a chillingly dark, hard-edged novel of conspiracy and espionage."

Here's the Book Club info if you are thinking of registering... or looking for more kit titles.
Happy reading,
Helen
