Welcome to New Chapter Books!
What an incredible few weeks it’s been! The 2024 Wigtown Book Festival has officially wrapped up, and we’re still buzzing from all the fantastic events, amazing authors, and, of course, the lovely readers who came through our doors. Whether you stopped by to grab a book or two (or ten—we’re not judging!) or attended one of the festival's many talks and signings, we want to say a massive thank you! You made the festival feel extra special, and we couldn’t be more grateful for your support.
But just because the festival's over doesn’t mean the fun stops here. Halloween is creeping up on us (pun very much intended), and we’ve got some exciting spooky happenings in the works. Keep an eye on our socials and pop into the shop for updates—it’s going to be frightfully good. And before you know it, Christmas will be around the corner, and we’ve got some festive surprises planned that will make you feel all warm and bookish inside. We can’t say too much yet, but let’s just say there’ll be something for everyone!
In the meantime, come in for a browse, say hello, and find your next great read. There’s always a new chapter waiting at New Chapter Books!
