Christmas is on the way, so get ready to wrap up warm and indulge in what makes this the most festive time of the year (in our opinion) books!
At Tea Leaves & Reads we’re all about the giving of books on Christmas Eve to celebrate what is affectionately known in Iceland as Jólabókaflóðið (Jolabokaflod – Christmas Book Flood).
This box will be dispatched from the 2nd December 2024.
Come and spend an afternoon in the warm, light and feel-good setting of The Fairground to celebrate the publication of Amanda Prowse’s latest book and enjoy a little bit of warmth and laughter in the depths of mid-winter.
Amanda will also be joined by Penny Dommett who will be interviewing her to find out more about her writing journey, publishing, and the inspirations for This One Life.
Hosted by the Tea Leaves & Reads Bookshop at The Fairground. Join us at 1pm on Saturday 11th January 2025.
In a village by the sea, where wintry skies bring a dusting of sparkling snow, somebody is opening an unexpected gift…
When Sophie receives a surprise package, she’s intrigued to find a beautifully bound book inside.
Sophie is desperate to discover the mystery sender, and her hunt draws to the enigmatic Harry. The subject of much gossip since his return from London, Harry keeps to himself in his crumbling manor house.
But they are both about to learn that the best stories can take on a life of their own.

Our Blog
We have read books for over thirty years (or over sixty years if you combine our ages!). We often read and review books ahead of publication thanks to the generosity of many authors and publishers that we are connected with which helps us to know what’s coming and what we should be putting in our boxes.
