\n Noisy Newt Books, located at 4 Market Street in Llandeilo, will officially open to the public later.\n<\/p>\n
\n It offers a curated selection of Welsh and English titles, with a strong emphasis on celebrating Welsh writing.\n<\/p>\n
\n Rhiannon Fielder-Hobbs, owner of Noisy Newt Books, said: “Having completed my MA in 2024, it felt like the right time to embark on making a long-term dream happen.\n<\/p>\n
\n “It is wonderful to be able to open Noisy Newt Books in my local town of Llandeilo, which already boasts so many brilliant independent shops and cafes.\n<\/p>\n
\n “At Noisy Newt, we aim to stock the very best in Welsh literature in both Welsh and English, and already have some exciting author events on the horizon.\n<\/p>\n
\n “It is my hope that Noisy Newt Books will be an inclusive, inspiring community space where everyone can find a book (or two) they just cannot put down.”\n<\/p>\n
\n The bookshop, which recently joined the Booksellers Association, is owned and run by Ms Fielder-Hobbs, a published poet.\n<\/p>\n
\n She is part of the Literature Wales Representing Wales cohort for 2025\u20132026.\n<\/p>\n
\n Her background includes an MA in Creative Writing from UWTSD (2024) and experience in libraries, children\u2019s books, and freelance writing.\n<\/p>\n
\n Noisy Newt Books offers a thoughtfully selected mix of new and second-hand books, including picture books, poetry, nature writing, and novels.\n<\/p>\n
\n Customers can also place orders for titles not currently in stock.\n<\/p>\n
\n The Booksellers Association has welcomed Noisy Newt Books to its membership.\n<\/p>\n
\n Amy Bradley, interim membership manager at the Booksellers Association, said: “Independent bookshops bring inspiration, connection, and vibrancy to their communities, and Rhiannon\u2019s passion for literature and her strong ties to the local area make Noisy Newt Books a truly exciting new addition.\n<\/p>\n
\n “We are delighted to welcome Rhiannon and Noisy Newt Books to our membership, and we look forward to seeing the bookshop thrive as part of Llandeilo\u2019s rich independent shopping culture.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Noisy Newt Books, located at 4 Market Street in Llandeilo, will officially open to the public later.
