Keeping Surrey reading
Did you know that toilet paper and pasta is not the only thing members of the public have been stocking up on since the coronavirus outbreak?
In fact, book sales across the country have soared as people look for things to do to keep them occupied during the quarantine. The sale of children's books also rose by 234 per cent, one of the highest booms on record.
Books offer readers escapism, education and promise; three things that can help you get through these troubling times. But where can you still purchase them?
Big retail giants like Waterstones and WHSmith have now closed their doors, but a local bookshop in Surrey is now offering residents a home delivery service to keep them well supplied with wonderful books through the lockdown.
The Cobham Bookshop has been a thriving, independent local store for more than thirty years. Located in the Surrey village of Cobham, they are dedicated to providing a personal service. Staff will be able to help you put together a special present, provide with you a new enthralling novel and supply you with a few unmissable blockbusters.
Their website is not designed to mirror the actual stock they have in store, this is down to receiving new titles daily. Instead, the bookshop encourages customers to browse their bestsellers or staff recommendations for the best ideas to get for their new read.
Their stock includes:
- New and classic fiction in hardback and paperback
- History and politics
- Poetry and drama
- Travel
- Children’s books

- Science
- Cookery
- Health and childcare
- Gardening and nature
