Springtime Round-Up

The sun is finally out and with it comes spring: a time for new life and fresh ideas. Whether you’re seeking some creative inspiration, looking for something to do with the kids during the holidays or simply craving some literary chat, we’ve rounded up a selection of the most exciting bookish events coming your way.


Fearless feminist Louise O’Neill introduces her unique reimagining of Hans Christian Andersen’s The Little Mermaid. The Surface Breaks follows a young mermaid’s yearning to break free from her controlling father and finally find her voice. Louise will be speaking to Emma Gannon at Waterstones Piccadilly in London, where you’ll get the chance to grab a copy of The Surface Breaks before its publication.




Following the emotional rollercoaster that was her previous book Mad Girl, Bryony Gordon is back with another memoir. Eat Drink Run follows her inspirational journey from couch potato to marathon runner and how running helped her – and others – speak out about their mental health. Join Bryony at Waterstones Liverpool for what promises to be a fun and fascinating evening.
