Guests: Hadley Freeman, Sali Hughes, Will Smith

Come and join us at this summer's hot ’n’ steamy literary salon where we are discussing rom-coms (and what it is that makes them so great) with die-hard movie fans Hadley Freeman and Sali Hughes. From When Harry Met Sally to Clueless to Crazy Stupid Love, we’ll be covering what rom-coms can teach us about love and life, feminist messages (if indeed there are any), how today’s offerings measure up to the 80’s classics, and everything in between.

Hadley Freeman is the much loved Guardian columnist and author of LIFE MOVES PRETTY FAST: THE LESSONS WE LEARNED FROM EIGHTIES MOVIES AND WHY WE DON'T LEARN THEM FROM MOVIES ANY MORE. Writer and journalist Sali Hughes is the resident beauty columnist at the Guardian and author of PRETTY HONEST: THE STRAIGHT-TALKING BEAUTY COMPANION and the upcoming PRETTY ICONIC. Chaired by Will Smith, writer and star of Bafta-winning BBC comedy The Thick of It.

Doors open at 7pm for 7.30pm start. The discussion will be followed by a Q&A, book signing and a chance to meet the panel.

Time: 7pm - 9pm

Price: £7

What is the Handling Charge for?

To ensure tickets are delivered safely and securely and to keep the price as low as possible for you, the ticket buyer, The Book Club generally uses our E-ticket system unless otherwise stated.

For this service we charge a small Handling Fee to cover the debit/credit card processing fees, customer services, processing and distribution of tickets and our secure server costs. We always try to keep these costs to an absolute minimum. If you feel at any time that our prices are not fair or competitive we'd be happy to hear from you.

Delivery

If you have ordered physical paper tickets there is a further Delivery cost added to cover the delivery of your order through the Royal Mail network.

We always endeavour to keep these costs as low as possible to merely cover the costs of postage. We only charge you one Delivery cost per order so if there is a big group of you recommend purchasing larger amounts in one order.

When you purchase tickets through The Book Club, the full face value of the ticket is shown. This price is the price set by the event organiser and we pay this full amount to the organiser without any deductions.
