What happened to The Queerish Bookshop?

The Queerish Bookshop was a queer and radical bookshop based at 39a Bondgate, Darlington, from October 2023 to January 2024. I closed down the physical shop for a multitude of reasons, mainly stress and lack of footfall to the shop. You can read more about it here

Can I purchase online?

You will be able to purchase our Time Traveller edition of The Queerish Book Box, but I am currently not selling general book stock online due to inventory errors. Customers were able to orders books online that we didn't have in stock and to avoid any further issues I have decided to cease online sales for individual book orders.

What is The Queerish Book Box?

The Queerish Book Box is a LGBTQ+ themed literature box designed to connect you to the author. For LGBTQ+ History Month Our final book box is Time Traveller themed and our featured author is Jane Cholmeley with A Bookshop of One's Own.

A Bookshop of One’s Own by Jane Cholmeley is a fascinating slice of social history from the heart of the women’s liberation movement, from a true feminist and lesbian icon. Written with heart and humour, it reveals the struggle and joy that comes with starting an underdog business, while being a celebration of the power women have to change the narrative when they are the ones holding the pen.
