Behind the Story
Come in. Sit down. Let's talk about books.
Every book has a story behind the page.
Once a month, The Boutique Bookshop invites you Behind the Story for an intimate conversation with today's storytellers.
Pull up a chair as we sit down with a Guest Author to talk about the inspiration, challenges, surprises, and moments that brought their story to life. We'll chat about their books, writing, creativity... wherever the conversation leads. And you'll have the chance to ask questions, too.
Whether you've already read the featured book or you're simply looking for your next great read, you're invited to join us.
Bring a cup of coffee, your curiosity, and your questions—we'll take care of the conversation.
