Festive Author Evening

About

The Bookery is delighted to support Crediton Town Council's Late Night Shopping evening with a festive celebration of books, stories and local authors. This special evening will be featuring Devon writers Caitlin Pharoah, Felicity Goodall and Tina Orr Munro. Guests will have the opportunity to meet the authors, hear the stories behind their books, have copies personally dedicated & signed, and enjoy free gift wrapping for any of the featured authors' books purchased on the evening.

The event brings together three writers whose work spans a remarkable range of subjects. Caitlin Pharoah's beautifully illustrated books, including Hidden Figures of the South West and Hidden Figures of Yorkshire, celebrate the people, traditions and creativity that shape rural communities. Felicity Goodall's latest book, Seeking Mea Allan: Fleet Street's Forgotten Pioneer, uncovers the story of one of Britain's most significant yet overlooked journalists. Crime fiction fans can meet Tina Orr Munro, who will be celebrating the launch of Death Watch Cottage, the latest in her gripping detective series set in Devon.
Whether searching for a gift for a history enthusiast, a lover of local stories, or a devoted crime fiction reader, visitors will discover plenty of inspiration. The evening provides the opportunity to chat informally with the authors collect signed books to read or as thoughtfully selected Christmas presents.
Adding an extra festive touch, The Bookery's amazing volunteer team will provide free gift wrapping for books purchased from any of the featured authors, providing customers with Christmas gifts ready to place straight under the tree.

As Crediton's town centre comes alive for Late Night Shopping, The Bookery is inviting residents and visitors alike to make the bookshop one of their festive stops for an evening of books, conversation and Christmas cheer.
