LGBTQ+ Book Club - July

Our first LGBTQ+ Book Club will be held at Book-ish Crickhowell on Monday 27th July at 7.30pm-9pm We are so excited to say we will be reading The Boyfriend Academy by Jack Strange! You can pick up your book from Book-ish in Crickhowell or Abergavenny. Love is forbidden. Truth is dangerous. Survival is everything. Ganymede’s is no ordinary boarding school. Behind its spiral towers and manicured lawns, boys are forged into the men society demands – strong, obedient, perfect. Graduate, and the world is yours: a home, a career, a wife. But fail… and you’re no longer useful to society. The ticket includes a glass of wine or soft drink, a discussion with prompt questions given by the host that week and a copy of the book we are reading. *Jack also has an event with us on Wednesday 22nd July with Emily Garside (author of Rainbow Wales) at Bookish Abergavenny. Tickets available here

An evening of ... Enabling Spiritual Care

Do you work in the care industry? Then this might be for you!This book is to help care home staff deliver excellent spiritual and religious care to residents that require it. About Enabling Spiritual Care: A guide for care home staff Drawing from expertise developed through Anna Chaplaincy, this book enables members of care home staff teams to understand and facilitate the provision of spiritual care for residents. It explains the need for religious care, focusing on older people who are Christians, and provides examples of prayers, hymns, and services that can be used. There are chapters on facilitating worship with groups and individuals, offering end-of-life spiritual care and supporting those who are unable to attend a funeral. There are also sections on self-care and attending to your own spiritual needs. This book focuses on spiritual care from a Christian perspective, but all faiths and belief systems are respected. Event Format: Sally and Julia will discuss their book, followed by audience Q&A and book signing. Tickets: £10 without book or £18 with book Venue: The Loft at Bookish is located in our flagship store in Crickhowell and is upstairs. Please use the front door entrance from 6.45pm.

Club 33.3 Presents… 'Moon Pix’ by Cat Power

Club 33.3 Presents … ‘Moon Pix’ by Cat Power Club 33.3 is a celebration of the vinyl album. Each month we invite music fans to step into our Loft and enjoy the breath-taking view as a selected LP plays on vinyl, in full, as the artist intended. Some albums will be familiar, some less so, making Club 33.3 the place to enjoy an old favourite or discover something new. August’s selection is ‘Moon Pix’, by Green Man 2026 headliner Cat Power. Supposedly written after a hallucinatory nightmare and recorded over five days in Melbourne with members of Dirty Three, it is widely regarded by fans and critics alike as Cat Power’s strongest album and by the artist herself as the album that saved her life. Each month, Club 33.3 also recommends a book to take you deeper into the story behind the LP. This month’s book is from Bloomsbury’s 33 1/3 series; ‘Moon Pix’, by Donna Kozloskie, blends contemporary testimony and published album reviews with fictional imaginings to explore the mythology, musicianship and magic that each play a key role in Chan Marshall’s masterpiece and persona. All tickets include one beer, glass of wine or soft drink, while all book pre-orders will also benefit from a 20% discount.
