BOOK CLUB & SOCIAL CLUB - monthly; get in touch to book your space

Each month we run a book club, bringing authors, writers, and translators along to join the discussion. We also have a monthly social club - a place for you to come, alone or with friends, and chat about some of our (and your!) favourite books and drink some wine (or beer or coffee or softs or tea!) and create a wonderful social reading community.

To secure a place at our next book club or social club, and to get copies of next month's reads, please pop into the shop, message on Instagram, or email us at hello@collectedbooks.co.uk


JANUARY BOOK CLUB - The Golden Hour by Kate Lord Brown

FREE!
but get in touch to sign up and grab a copy of the book to read ahead...

Get your new year of reading off to the best start by joining us for our January book club with author Kate Lord Brown on The Golden Hour - a sumptuously set, intrigue-filled novel about love, loss, and adventure that is the perfect antidote to winter's dark days and long nights!

From decadent Cairo in the 1930s to bohemian Beirut in the 1970s, The Golden Hour is an epic yet intimate story of great love and lasting friendship.

As her home, Beirut, teeters on the brink of war, Polly Fitzgerald has one last story to tell – about her best friend, Juno, and their life together in Cairo. Juno was vital and brilliant – and determined to succeed in her ambition to uncover Nefertiti’s tomb. But Juno and Polly’s friendship was bound by a secret, one that has never been told. Now, as Polly’s daughter, Lucie, travels to Beirut to be with her dying mother, the mystery of what happened many years ago must be revealed.
