Much Ado Named One of the Best!
We were thrilled to be included on a list of the best browsable bookshops in the UK, published by the impeccable (obviously!) The Times on 10 January 2024.
We feel honoured to be included along with the other six shops, all of which are wonderful havens for book-lovers. Click here to view the on-line article

Books by Post
Can’t make it to the shop in person? Our website offers a few books that we especially like, with our own personal touches – gift wrapping, tea, and a poem added to make receiving our packets a pleasure.

Ordering In-print Books
We can order most in-print books and have them delivered to your door. Supply-chain issues mean that they come direct from our distributor, so we can’t offer the kind of presentation we’d like. But we’re happy that we can at least supply some good reading! Learn more by clicking here.

YouTube Author Chats
We’ve saved a number of Zoom chats with authors, including Jacqueline Wilson, Merve Emre, and others - Click here to see the range!
Events and workshops
We love getting people together to enjoy learning new skills, to share thoughts about books or to expand their horizons.
We have an active calendar of workshops and events. Some are held in our first floor craft workshop and meeting room; some are help off-site.
From talks by the likes of Bill Bryson, Jacqueline Wilson and Salley Vickers to workshops by leading creatives, you’ll find opportunities to stretch yourself - and to enjoy the pleasures of books, crafts and good company!
