Pimms, Picks and Passion

A summer afternoon, sipping bottomless Pimms, nibbling snacks, mingling with romance lovers and three best selling authors. If this sounds ideal to you then, join us on August 2nd from 12 noon for an exclusive Afrori event at the bookshop.

STEPHANIE YEBOAH is a British-Ghanaian award-winning author, journalist, content creator  and one of the UK’s most influential voices on body positivity, fat liberation and modern womanhood. Through sharp cultural commentary, personal storytelling and fearless advocacy, she has become a powerful voice on body politics, inclusive fashion, dating culture and the realities of navigating the world as a Black, plus-size woman in Britain. 

Talia Hibbert is an award-winning, New York Times and internationally bestselling author of more than fifteen romance novels and novellas. She lives in a small English town in Nottinghamshire, reluctantly sharing bookshelf space with her childhood sweetheart and their dog, pebbles, who is an avid reader. 

Jasmine Burke  is a Caribbean-British writer, marketer, and lifestyle content creator from London, who grew up with obsession with both reading and writing. She credits her love of books to her parents, who fed her passion from the age of three, in the hopes that Baby Encyclopaedias would stop her from asking so many questions about how the world works. She spent her primary school summer holidays hauled inside (when allowed), writing stories to read to her little sister. It’s fair to say that those stories have grown since then, and she is excited to share her latest one(s) with the world.
