Rumour has it we're in for a rainy autumn. So as the days slowly get shorter, wetter, and cosier, we've decided that we're going to fully embrace it. And what better way to embrace bad weather than with some gorgeous indoor activities? If you're ready to hunker down a bit then make yourself a hot drink and step into this mini world of murder mystery's to solve, creativity to explore and more with our new-in books that are perfect for incoming cosy season.

Puzzle books

Why is there something cosy about a murder mystery? It just makes sense. Settle down into a rainy day with a book that will keep you feeling engaged and productive whilst still feeling relaxing and fun. The Sherlock Holmes ones are always popular.

For you to get lost in

Enjoy a mindful moment getting creative with one of the many new arty books we've got in stock, whether it's trying your hand at visual journaling with the Observe, Collect, Draw journal or just some simple sticker therapy with our selection of adult sticker books.

For little ones to get lost in

We love our kids book collection. In fact, sometimes we wish we could read them ourselves (and sometimes, we do). We like to keep a nice variety and amongst the most popular with our customers are the Big Outdoors books, so we've got more in! If you love flicking through these fun and educational little books about the world with your child then you might be interested in the newbies.

And on another note, if you feel like getting into the spirit of Halloween next month, then the slightly spooky tale of Fox and Mole is perfect for just that. Don't worry, it's not too spooky for little ones, but it's definitely got an autumnal feel for something a bit different.

For the kitchen

There is something about autumnal cooking that seems to be so popular amongst so many of us. Perhaps it's down to our Britishness that we love nothing more than making a hearty pie, soups galore and heartwarming desserts. Well, if that is you, then do check out some of our cook books. Our favourite is the new Seasonal Snacks book but there are a few in the Seasonal series that are really handy and look utterly divine. Whip up a foolproof traybake, or learn some new veggie and vegan slow cooker recipes for cosy meat-free meals. Ah how we love a bit of autumnal cooking!
