On Saturday 31 July 2010, the North London Reading Group took over a pub in central London for its very first literary evening - Bookstock!
Some very varied local authors read, performed and discussed their works in the beautiful Edwardian room in the Blue Posts pub in W1.
In between featured comedy, poetry, competitions, reasonably priced beverages (courtesy of Mr. Samuel Smith), and plenty of socialising and book swapping.
This website records the night.
