If you’re looking to turn the page on a new year with a fresh read and some self-care, Lush Stratford-upon-Avon is hosting a uniquely immersive book club event this January. Taking place at their High Street store, this gathering invites bookworms to dive into the New York Times bestseller, The Seven Year Slip by Ashley Poston.
With the session scheduled for Tuesday, 28 January from 17:30 to 19:00, it’s the perfect way to ease into 2026 with a cosy, sensory experience that goes far beyond a standard book discussion.
What to Expect
Lush is known for doing things differently, and their book club is no exception. This is a “hands-on” approach to reading: expect the discussion to be brought to life with themed products, scents, and snacks inspired directly by the novel.
The book of choice, The Seven Year Slip, is an impossible romance with a wild twist that won the local Lush team’s vote by a landslide. The story follows Clementine, a publicist with a regimented plan for her life, whose carefully constructed world is upended when she finds a stranger standing in her apartment—a man who exists seven years in her past.
Attendees can look forward to a relaxed, friendly atmosphere where the story’s themes are explored through Lush’s signature sensory style. Whether you’re a die-hard romantic or just curious about the “sci-fi twist,” you’ll be treated to a goody bag of themed treats to take home.
Practical Info & Who It’s For
This event is ideal for fiction lovers, romance fans, and anyone looking for a social evening with a creative twist. It is suitable for ages 10 and over, making it a welcoming space for younger readers and adults alike.
