We’ve started a new Instagram account for the Southwell shop, which we’ll be using to promote the shop, and show off some of our lovely new stock. We’re at https://www.instagram.com/bookwise_southwell/ – if you’re active on Instagram, please find us and follow us there…

Bookwise Newark recently relocated from Church Street just a short distance into beautifully refurbished premises at 2 Queen’s Head Court. With our marvellous range of bargain books in such an attractive setting, and the Old Bakery coffee shop next door at No.4, we are now a ‘go to’ destination. Come and see!
November is National Novel Writing Month. Bookwise in Goose Gate featured as the filming location for a Notts TV package promoting it. Three interviewees appeared on the Ey Up Notts magazine programme but of course we like to think that the bookshop backdrop was the star of the show! Watch the package by clicking here – second item, about 7 minutes in.
Delighted, through this event, to have met Matt Turpin from Nottingham UNESCO City of Literature and to have started to link Bookwise into our city’s great project.
Bookwise Goose Gate was delighted to host the film crew of Adrift in Soho a while back, for a couple of scenes demanding a ‘retro’ bookshop setting. Lots more Nottingham locations feature in this acclaimed independent film of the 1961 cult novel by Colin Wilson. Free viewing at 12 noon on 19 November at the Broadway Cinema – make sure you book ahead – asap. Since the filming, Bookwise has grown bigger and even better of course – come and see.
