BOOKA PRESENTS
AN EVENING WITH 

RUTH JONES

Booka Bookshop are thrilled to present an evening with actress, novelist and screenwriter Ruth Jones as the Gavin & Stacey co-star/co-writer and bestselling author returns with her brand new novel Us Three.

Meet Lana, Judith and Catrin. Best friends since primary school when they swore an oath on a Curly Wurly wrapper that they would always be there for each other, come what may.

After the trip of a lifetime, the three girls are closer than ever. But an unexpected turn of events shakes the foundation of their friendship to its core, leaving their future in doubt – there's simply too much to forgive, let alone forget. An innocent childhood promise they once made now seems impossible to keep ..

Packed with all the heart and empathy that made Ruth's name as a screenwriter and now author, Us Three is a funny, moving and uplifting novel about life's complications, the power of friendship and how it defines us all. Prepare to meet characters you'll feel you've known all your life – prepare to meet Us Three.

Ruth Jones is best known for her outstanding and award-winning television writing, most notably BBC1's Gavin and Stacey, which she co-wrote with James Corden and in which she played the incorrigible Nessa Jenkins. The most recent Christmas Day special drew an audience of over 18 million, winning a National Television Award for Impact. Ruth also created and co-wrote Sky 1's Stella, which ran for six series and for which she was Bafta-nominated for her role as the eponymous Stella.

Ruth's debut novel Never Greener has now sold over a quarter of a million copies and was a Sunday Times bestseller for fifteen weeks, three weeks at Number One. We're delighted to welcome Ruth back to Oswestry to celebrate the publication of Us Three - don't miss this uplifting and memorable night with one of the nation's best loved writers!
