19:30 - 20:30 21st May 2024
Booka BookshopMore InformationJoin us for an evening with Joanne Burn, author of the acclaimed The Hemlock Cure, as she talks about her new novel The Bone Hunters.
In 1824, Lyme Regis is as tumultuous as the sea that surrounds it. Wealthy holidaymakers dance in the Assembly Rooms whilst the poor riot over the price of bread, scientists do battle with theologists, and amidst it all, one woman is about to make an extraordinary discovery.
When twenty-four-year-old Ada Winters – poor, peculiar and brilliant – uncovers a set of unusual fossils on the cliffs, she believes she has found the answer to her scientific frustrations and her family’s financial struggles.
Meanwhile, Doctor Edwin Moyle has come to Dorset in search of the discovery that will place him amongst the greatest geologists of the age. What he finds instead is a strange young woman who seems to hold the key to everything he desires.
But what is the creature that Ada and Edwin seek to unearth? And will it be their means to greatness, or destruction?
We look forward to welcoming Joanne back to Booka to celebrate the publication of The Bone Hunters.

OswestryAN EVENING WITH YVETTE FIELDING – SCREAM QUEEN
19:30 - 20:30 29th May 2024
Booka BookshopMore InformationJoin us for an evening with the UK’s most celebrated ghost hunter and Most Haunted icon, Yvette Fielding, as she talks about her experiences and her memoir Scream Queen.
Seances, Ouija boards, table tipping, knocking phenomena – all in a day’s work for the First Lady of the Paranormal. Yvette Fielding has nerves of steel when facing down her tormentors in the spirit world. Her living-world personal story also reveals a woman of courage and determination, who built success from nothing, following her passion and lifelong curiosity in search of answers to the unexplained.
Yvette was always fascinated with the afterlife, and Buddhist meditation practice opened her up to any spirit who wanted to contact her. This manifested in her first family home. Their TV would switch itself on, and kitchen cupboards would open and close all by themselves. When alone there, Yvette would arm herself with a Samurai sword to confront her unseen visitors.
But it was a harrowing investigation of eerie 800 year-old Michelham Priory where Yvette’s life-changing Most Haunted adventure began, and still continues many terrifying quests and over twenty years later.
Here you’ll walk with Yvette where others fear to tread through chills of the supernatural kind, and she also talks with candid honesty of occasional cold spots she’s encountered in human form. But through all the drops in temperature, the nation’s most celebrated ghost hunter radiates warmth and humour and it’s a joy to accompany her on her incredible journey from child TV star to Most Haunted icon.
Beware sceptics: the Scream Queen’s story could change your world view for ever.
We look forward to welcoming Yvette Fielding to Oswestry to celebrate the publication of Scream Queen. Whether you are a believer or a sceptic, this is sure to be a fascinating and entertaining evening – don’t miss it!
Tickets: £12 without book (Admits One, ticket redeemable against a signed copy of Scream Queen) or £22 with book (Admits One, includes a signed copy of Scream Queen)

OswestryAn Evening with Clover Stroud – The Giant on the Skyline
19:30 - 20:30 30th May 2024
Booka BookshopMore InformationJoin us for an evening with Sunday Times bestselling author Clover Stroud as she talks about her new book The Giant on the Skyline, an inspiring memoir about home, family, and belonging.
What is it that makes a home? What is a home without the roots that tie you to a place? What is a home when a family is split?
Clover’s eldest children are leaving home for university. Her husband Pete’s work is in America.
The only way for Clover and the younger children to live with him is to uproot, leave their rural life near the ancient Ridgeway in Oxfordshire and move to Washington DC.
Forced to leave the home she loves, Clover sets out to explore the place where she lives, understand the history of her landscape, and work out why it is that it is so hard for her to go.
In this profound and moving memoir, Clover paints a beautifully layered portrait of family, community and of belonging in a landscape that has drawn people to it for generation after generation.
We look forward to welcoming Clover Stroud to Oswestry to celebrate the publication of The Giant on the Skyline.
CLOVER STROUD is a writer and journalist, writing regularly for The Sunday Times, The Guardian and The Saturday and Sunday Telegraph, among others. She also hosts a popular podcast called Tiny Acts of Bravery. Her first book, The Wild Other, was shortlisted for the Wainwright Prize. Her critically acclaimed second book, My Wild and Sleepless Nights: A Mother’s Story, and third book, The Red of My Blood: A Death and Life Story, were instant Sunday Times bestsellers and rated ‘best books of the year’.
Tickets: £8 without book (Admits One, ticket redeemable against a signed copy of The Giant of the Skyline) or £19 with book (Admits One, includes a signed copy of The Giant on the Skyline)
