Book Lovers Club with Amelia Mellor

Join author Amelia Mellor as we discover the strange but true stories that inspired her two historical fantasy novels, The Grandest Bookshop in the World and The Bookseller’s Apprentice.

Find out how Amelia used real Australian history in her award-winning debut novel and delve into the astonishing world of the Coles Book Arcade.  

Get your questions ready as Amelia talks us through her journey as a writer — where she finds inspiration and how she creates magic and mayhem in her action-packed adventures.
