Book lovers are in for a treat on Sunday 17 August as Bookface hosts its next Sip & Swap event at Saints of Ingram in Glasgow from 3–6pm. Guests can expect an afternoon of fizz, good chat, and brilliant books – all with a signature Bookface twist. The afternoon will include a 45-minute conversation with bestselling author Sophie Gravia, who will talk about her brand-new novel The Dicktionary Club and her latest venture into podcasting. Guests will also get the chance to meet Sophie in person and purchase a signed copy of her new book on the day.

As always, the Bookface book swap will be in full swing, with 300+ titles available for guests to browse and exchange. Attendees are encouraged to bring up to four books to swap, although this is not essential – Bookface recognises that many readers prefer digital or audio formats.

Sophie Gravia is a Glasgow-based author, NHS nurse, and single mum-of-two who found fame during lockdown with her debut novel A Glasgow Kiss. The book began life as a blog where Sophie shared honest and hilarious stories about online dating, and it quickly gained a cult following. The blog grew into a full-length novel, eventually becoming an Amazon #1 bestseller. Sophie has since written What Happens in Dubai, Meet Me in Milan, and the bold and empowering Hot Girl Summer. Her latest, The Dicktionary Club, continues her trademark mix of humour, honesty, and fearless female leads.

Bookface events regularly sell out and have built a loyal following of readers who love great books and good company. Each month, Bookface brings together a mix of bestselling authors and passionate readers in a fun, relaxed setting. Past guests have included Alan Parks, John Niven, Davinia Taylor, Chris Brookmyre, Val McDermid, Susannah Constantine, Dr Gillian Shirreffs, Nikki May, Fran Littlewood and Heather Morris.
