It’s that time of year where festivals are cropping up everywhere. If you can’t get over to Hay this year, do not fear; there’s another literary festival happening in central London: Emerald Street Literary Festival.

Taking place over one day at the Royal Geographical Society, the line up features Kate Mosse, Jessie Burton, Maggie O’Farrell, the Baileys Prize finalists and many more. The day features workshops, talks and exclusive readings from our best loved authors and thinkers.

I adored The Miniaturist by Jessie Burton so I am now considering forgoing hot meals for the week and buying a ticket to this fantastic looking festival.

See you there!
