Local author Sue Hutchinson will be at Book Corner on Saturday 29th November, 11am - 1pm, signing her two children's books featuring her Miniature Schnauzer, Bertie. The books are packed with colourful illustrations, and would make lovely gifts for children aged 2-5.

It's National Bookshop Day; the perfect occasion for buying a book about bookshops from a bookshop. Like this one for example. 👇

35. The Hometown Bookshop
The first of my efforts to read more light-hearted stuff than normal; a cozy vignette of small-town life with some real gut punches, featuring some of my fave elements: lots of dialogue; a play within a story and of course, bookshops. A triumph. 👏

Happy Bookshop Day! What better way to celebrate than by using Louise Boland’s Bookshop Tours of Britain to tour the country via indie bookshops?

An ideal summer read with a bookshop/seaside setting. I absolutely loved it.
