Do you think having a third supermarket chain will bring competition and lower grocery prices, or will the existing giants still dominate?

We are delighted to have Publisher’s Weekly bestselling and critically acclaimed author Jackie Ashenden instore to celebrate her latest release BOOK PEOPLE. Come along and meet Jackie, ask your questions (you might win a prize!) and get your book signed.

Date and Time: Wednesday 30 April at 7pm
Venue: Chapter Book and Tea Shop, 442 Mt Eden Rd, Auckland 1024
Facebook: www.facebook.com...

BOOK PEOPLE is available at a special price of $24 (vs RRP $27.99). Order ahead to reserve your copy. If you are not able to attend the book launch, but would like a copy signed/personalised and shipped to you, please get in touch or order online. We can organise this for you.

Orders, Enquiries and RSVPs to:
✉️ info@chapter.co.nz ☎️ 09-6232319 📱 021-635027

Or order online: at chapter.co.nz...

Author Bio: Jackie has been writing fiction since she was eleven years old. Mild mannered fantasy/SF/pseudo-literary writer by day, obsessive romance writer by night, she used to balance her writing with the more serious job of librarianship until a chance meeting with another romance writer prompted her to throw off the shackles of her day job and devote herself to the true love of her heart - writing romance. First published in 2013, she has now released more than 70 books (and counting!).

Parking: please be careful where you park because Mt Eden Rd heading south is a clearway until 7pm. Parking is available in the Essex Road public card park (free after 6pm), in the side-streets (no time limits after 6pm) and on Mt Eden Rd heading north. For more parking information, please visit www.mounteden.co.nz....

Bring along a reusable cup: we’ll serve complimentary cups of tea and iced tea.

BOOK PEOPLE

You have to break some rules to write your own story…

When Kate, a fledgling bookseller, decides to open a bookshop that celebrates the kinds of genre fiction she loves to read (popular and fun!), she’s surprised to find that not everyone in the town is as excited as she is.

Least excited of all? Sebastian, owner of the highbrow bookshop across the road, who has rules for everything: the kind of books he sells, the clothes he wears, and the people he dates (no-one local).

When the pair find themselves working together on the town’s literary festival, their growing attraction becomes harder and harder to ignore. Professional rivalry aside, just one steamy kiss can’t mean anything, can it?

64 BUS FARE CHANGE EFFECTIVE 27 APRIL 2025
Auckland Transport has advised the Mt Eden Village Business Association that the fare for the 64 Bus will change. Since its inception in mid-2020, as a rail replacement bus, the 64 Bus has had a fare of 1 cent. However, as from 27 April 2025, a normal bus fare will apply. Please note that Auckland Transport’s zone fare system allows trips on the 64 Bus to include a transfer to or from another bus or train without additional cost for many journeys. Information about bus fares can be found on the AT website here: at.govt.nz...

64 BUS FUTURE ROUTE CHANGE IN 2026
When the Maungawhau Station re-opens in 2026, the route of the 64 Bus will change. Instead of travelling on Sandringham Rd, it will travel on Dominion Road. When this change is made, the 64 Bus will continue to travel between Newmarket and St Lukes, but it will no longer travel on Walters Road or Sandringham Road and it will not go to Kingsland Station.
