Friday 27th November at 7pm

Join us for a magical evening of winter fiction, festive cheer, and cosy conversation as three wonderful authors come together to share their stories of love, hope, and seasonal sparkle in the beautiful surroundings of The Longstock Farm Shop on the Leckford Estate.

We’re thrilled to welcome Cressy McLaughlin, Holly Hepburn & Sophie Davies — three brilliant voices in contemporary fiction — to talk about their latest winter novels. From snow-dusted romances to heartwarming tales of friendship and family, each author will bring a touch of seasonal magic to the evening.

Friday 4th December at 7pm

Come and join Tea Leaves & Reads and celebrate all things books for a cosy night in.

Winter or Festive attire optional but rumour has it there’s a prize or two for effort! With a line up (to be revealed) of fabulous Authors, two hours of bookish chat, you can join us from the comfort of your home with a glass (or mug) of your choice.

A hit and run. A deadly secret. An accidental killer playing both sides.

At twenty-three-weeks pregnant, Jack’s wife must avoid stress or risk losing their daughter. As a criminal defence lawyer, Jack knows that’s impossible once he owns up to his crime.

We often read and review books ahead of publication thanks to the generosity of many authors and publishers that we are connected with which helps us to know what’s coming and what we should be stocking in the Bookshop. You will also find reviews from our incredible review team too!
