🚀 It’s Sci-Fi Sunday!

As you maybknow by now, Pete reads a lot of sci-fi, so when he calls something his favourite book of the year so far, you know it's going to be good. 👀📚

This week he’s talking about When There Are Wolves Again by E. J. Swift, a book he absolutely loved and was September's Sci-Fi & Fantasy Book Club pick. 🐺

And there’s another reason to get reading… E. J. Swift will be joining us at the BookCellar on 7th November, where Pete will be chatting to her about the book, her writing and (we imagine) plenty of sci-fi. 🎤

So you’ve got just over a month to discover Pete’s favourite read of the year before the event... Better get reading! Tickets available via our website.

Have you read it yet? 👇

October’s Book & W**e pairing has arrived 🌲📚🍷

Our Book of the Month is Hag: Forgotten Folktales Retold. A dark, potent and uncanny collection of forgotten folklore, wildly reimagined by some of the most exciting women writing today, the perfect read for October's spooky season 🎃🧹

We’ve paired it with Dr Zenzen Pinot Noir 2020. With dark cherry, subtle spice and notes of 'damp forest floor' (trust us it's delicious), it feels right at home amongst Hag’s misty woods and ancient tales.

📚 + 🍷 Get £5 off when you buy the book and w**e together throughout October.

The perfect pairing for darker evenings. 🌙
