Book Events in and around Wallingford
Coming Up…

Thursday 22nd January, 7pm

Classics Book Club

Classics Book Club will focus on classic and modern classic fiction and non-fiction from around the world.


All books would have less than 350 pages to keep them achievable.


Our first books both have a book theme (seemed apt!) but otherwise couldn't be more different - Fahrenheit 451 and 84 Charing Cross Road. We'll be talking about both books, but you only need to read one!

 

Pop in to pick up your copy / book your slot and we'll see you there!  


£5 entry redeemable against the book of the month, or a shop voucher for a future purchase if you already have the book.

Monday 26th January, 7.30pm

Book Club with Vaseem Khan

Authorised by the James Bond Estate. In this clever cosy spy thriller Q is out of MI6 and in over his head. We have gorgeous signed, sprayed edge editions and Vas will be joining us to discuss the book at our January book club.

Tuesday 3rd February, 6:30pm (shop), 7:15pm (Five Little Pigs)

Cookbook Club at Five Little Pigs

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 Dinner by Meera Sodha.


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

Wednesday 4th February, 6.30pm

'Shh! I'm reading..' Book Club

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.

Wednesday 18th February 7.30pm

Writer’s group
