#BookPost It's been too long since @francinetoon.bsky.social 's #Pine so very excited to buy this new one by her. Had this on pre-order for yonks! #Bluff @doubledaybooks.bsky.social

#BookPost Absolutely thrilled that I can now read the follow up to the brilliant #EstellasRevenge! @authorbarbara.bsky.social #EstellasFury Read my review of the first book here: ravencrimereads.wordpress.com/2025/05/18/rea…

With the engagement on my blog and on social media languishing in the doldrums, it was a complete joy to receive this message. I've always said that if one of my reviews makes even just one person seek out a book for themselves I'm happy, so good to know it's worked! ❤ #Booksky 💙📚

Aside from being scruffy northerners, we've built our reputation on the strength of our historical fiction the last couple of years. Well, we also love the weird and wonderful as well! Have you had a look at any of these 2025 releases yet?

Faber has decided to delay UK publication of the new instalment of ON THE CALCULATION OF VOLUME until 20 November - two days after the US release - which shouldn't annoy me (I know it's a gimmick), but I was looking forward to reading in sympathy with Tara Selter on 18 November this year #BookSky

🚨MASSIVE NEWS🚨 One of our most sought after titles that sold out in less than 24 hours is back in stock! The brilliant and bonkers, darkly comic, animal detective novel a Remington Platypus is available now! Grab yours while stocks last! share.google/c7Di7sJNkNr8...
