August Author Events Guest: The Mysterious Bookcase
In conversation with Guest Interviewer: Steve Couch
Join us this August as we welcome The Mysterious Bookcase — the UK’s best Blind Date With A Book experience — for a special Author Events evening!
From beloved online beginnings to the upcoming launch of its first brick-and-mortar bookshop in Bournemouth, The Mysterious Bookcase has captured the imagination of readers nationwide. Known for its curated, surprise-wrapped books paired with handwritten clues, this indie bookseller turns reading into a delightful mystery.
Our guest interviewer for the evening is Steve Couch, author of Dead Man Singing and Foul And Fair, and co-host of the engaging new literary podcast Beneath The Page. With his background in storytelling and publishing, Steve brings sharp insight and wit to every conversation.
🎤 What to Expect:
Come meet the creative minds behind the brand, hear the inspiring story of how a side project became a full-fledged bookshop, and maybe even take home a blind date or two — of the literary variety, of course.
