This Week's Newsletter.

Hello

 The first of our open meetings to discuss the Wood Green Literary Festival, which we are organising this year, was a big success. We had a great group of people turn up who put forward some great suggestions & ideas for us to think about.

The second of these meetings is on Tuesday February 19^th at the Bookshop. Everyone is welcome.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

The evening with Tracey Thorn on March 6^th has sold out already. We are considering looking for a bigger venue, but we very much want it to stay LOCAL. If you have any suggestions of where might be a suitable venue, please get in touch.

 This being the case, we have started a reserve list, for people who would like tickets if more become available.

PLEASE GET IN TOUCH IF YOU’D LIKE TO BE PUT ON THE RESERVE LIST. Email enquiries@biggreenbookshop.com or phone us on 020 8881 6767

We have just found out that Lauren Oliver, one of America’s biggest Young Adult authors, is coming to the UK in March for a couple of days. Naturally we got in touch with her publishers, and she is now going to be visiting one of the local schools with us. This is huge, by the way!

Lauren will be with us on the morning of March 19^th and she’s happy to sign and dedicate copies of her books for any of her UK fans. We can send these out anywhere in the UK with FREE P+P.

Not only that, but she’ll be at the bookshop on the day, from 12.30-1pm to sign copies of her books too.

More information can be found on our website, here.
