What if your Saturday walk came with bookstores, coffee, pie, a goodie bag and a whole group of people to wander with?

To celebrate the release of Karina May’s new novel, Just a Girl, Actually, Bound to Roam is bringing the book’s Walky Talky walks to life with a very special Paddington bookstore crawl - swapping the fictional app for a real-life day of walking, talking, eating and, naturally, buying books.

We’ll begin at Ampersand Café, where you’ll collect your Walky Talky goodie bag and tote, packed with a few surprises inspired by the day, grab your included coffee and sweet treat, and settle in for an intimate in-conversation with Karina May and fellow romance author Amy Hutton.

Then, we roam.

We’ll make our way through Paddington with stops at Berkelouw Books, Ariel Booksellers and Romancing the Novel, with plenty of time to browse, discover something new and add unnecessarily to your TBR.

With Just a Girl, Actually taking us all the way to the UK, we’re bringing a little bit of Notting Hill to Paddington for lunch at The Imperial Hotel - think classic pub pie with your choice of wine, beer or a non-alcoholic drink.

Once the official crawl wraps up, anyone who wants to keep the afternoon going can join us for optional drinks at The Royal Paddington.

As always, coming solo is very much encouraged. We’ll make the introductions, help everyone settle in and give you plenty of people to walk and talk with throughout the day.

Wander far. Wander safely. And stop for books along the way.
