Celebrating our Community Book Buying Group

We pride ourselves in having a wide and varied selection of good quality fiction and non fiction.  Did you know that a lot of our books are selected and curated by our Community Book Buying Group?  We have 15 members who all love books and are either regular customers or volunteers!  There is such a rich diversity of interest in different genres represented, including surrealism/creative fiction, fiction in translation, philosophy, politics, history and young adult fiction.  We meet monthly to review the genres, order books, and choose any new proofs to review as well as talking about books of course! Each member can track sales of their recommendations too!

Catalina, a group member said ‘it makes me feel part of the bookshop and I am making a contribution, I have ordered books and its nice to see them selling’

Some of their books have their reviews written next to them, do come in and explore the ever growing fantastic selection.   

October Books certainly is run by the community for the community.
