Romance Bookstore · Newcastle
Our Newcastle Home
The Sinful Spine began online, and that is still where most of our story lives. But a screen could only ever hold so much of a feeling, so we opened real doors too.
I have always felt a bookshop should be more than somewhere you pop in, buy a book and leave. My whole vision was to create a space where people could spend hours getting lost in stories, discover books they will think about for years, make new friends, and feel like they have found their people.
Romance is the genre, but the feeling is warmth, escapism and belonging. This is far more a cosy sanctuary for readers than anywhere loud or overly provocative. A soft, low lit room built on a love of books, coffee, wine and all things romance.
More than anything, it is a place where everyone feels welcome, understood, and a little bit at home.
So pull up a chair, order something warm, and stay as long as you like. The kettle is always on.
More Than A Bookshop
The shop is just the beginning. Alongside everything you can browse online, our Newcastle home comes alive with gatherings made for the people who love these books as much as we do.
Meet the authors behind your favourite stories. We host intimate signings, readings and live Q and A nights so you can finally put faces to the names on your shelves.
Our book club roots run deep. Join regular meet ups where strangers become friends over the books, the ships and the plot twists you cannot stop thinking about.
From release day celebrations to cosy seasonal evenings of coffee, wine and romance, there is always a reason to gather. Keep an eye out for what is coming next.
“For the dreamers who never quite belonged to reality.”
