You might have guessed from our social media that Team Willoughby are very motivated by Delicious Drinks and Snacks! It never takes long for office conversation to turn to what we've been baking or are cooking up at the weekend, so all of us get pretty excited about seasonal cooking. We were chatting together about what our favourite Christmassy drinks are, and decided to share them with you. After all, what could be nicer at this time of year than settling down with a good book and something delicious to sip on?

Well, the leaves are falling, the clocks have changed, and the nights are long and dark. With the cost of heating on everyone's mind at the moment we'll have to create hygge at home with the soft glow of candles and a hot water bottle tucked under a chunky blanket. We'll be warding off the darkness and fallow months by getting through some of the books we've stashed throughout the year, and maybe doing a little bit of catching up on those reading goals we set back at the beginning of the year!

In my previous life as a bookseller, I remember discussing with my colleagues the possibility of offering reading 'prescriptions' for all kinds of life scenarios. We'd listen to our clients, hear about what was ailing them, and offer a salve in the form of books. 

'Tis the season to be spooky... Tis the season to be spooky! The leaves are turning brown, the nights are dark, and the rain feels never-ending. It’s the perfect time to grab a book and settle in, as we have plenty of spooky reads for you to sink your teeth into this October. Whether you enjoy horror, psychological thrillers or a slightly more tame ghostly tale, we have something for everyone! The team at Willoughby have been busy carefully curating the perfect spooky reads for you.
