Book Events in and around Wallingford
Coming Up…

The premise of Cookbook Club is simple. We come together on the first Tuesday of every month to enjoy a meal cooked from a favourite cookbook, discuss recipes and ideas and have a glass (or two) of something fitting. Tickets are limited.

Our cookbook for this month is New York Cult Recipes by Marc Grossman.

Come along to the shop at 6.30pm if you'd like to discuss the book and swap recipes with the other guests, before heading across to Five Little Pigs for Aimee's take on the recipes and a fabulous two course dinner from the book.

Email the Pigs to book your ticket at littlepigsltd@gmail.com

A book club where you could choose to read your own book!

Come along, chat about the books you're currently reading for 15 minutes or so (or just listen to the discussion - no participation necessary) then read quietly for 45 - 50 minutes in the company of like-minded bibliophiles.

£5 entry, redeemable against your next read

You bring a blanket / cushion and we'll provide the herbal tea and biscuits!

​Please get in touch if interested.

All welcome.

Our prompt for this month is “A Gleam in the Dark”.

Bring along a piece of writing linked in some way to the prompt or something that you’re working on that you feel needs a little outside help or feedback.
