Clemo Books is a proudly independent bookshop in Newquay, Cornwall. We stock new fiction, non-fiction, children’s literature and a lots of Cornish books. We started out as a pop-up bookshop and now have a permanent home on Bank Street in Newquay. We’re curating books and creating community!

Join our book club! We have a subscription book club here at Clemo Books. Sign up, pick up your book and join us at the meet up in Newquay to discuss that month’s pick. It’s a great way to find new authors and meet new people.

    The Log Books: Voices of Queer Britain and the Helpline that Listened is an intimate exploration of intergenerational queer heritage, charting four decades of LGBTQ+ life in Britain through the call logs of a charity helpline. We’re delighted that Tash and Adam will be in discussion at Clemo Books picking poignant parts of the book to talk about and telling us how the book came to be. There will be a chance for the audience to ask questions and a book signing at the end.
