What’s new at Well-Read Books

Celebrating five years as a bookshop

In September 2018, Well-Read Books opened its doors for the first time. Over the five years the stock has expanded and includes a wide range of both fiction and non-fiction. Our stock of carefully selected new books increases on a weekly basis and we try hard to offer customers ‘something different’ from what can be bought in a supermarket.

Listen to our Podcasts!

Wigtown booksellers are set on entertaining you – with their thoughts on books they have read, books they would like to recommend, and maybe some they were ambivalent about. The Booktown Blether Podcast will keep you up-to-date with all that is happening on the literary front in Scotland’s National Booktown. Listen on Podbean.

New fiction for the New Year

We stock a wide variety of new fiction. Here are some of our current bestsellers – the first three are only £5.00 each

Non-fiction

Always a varied and topical selection of non-fiction titles.
