This #BannedBooksWeek we wanted to spotlight author, Marc Levy, whose novel THE BOOKSHOP OF FORBIDDEN BOOKS could not be more topical. We are honoured to be publishing this important (and also very charming) novel. #BannedBooks #Censorship #Reading #Books

We can finally share the details of the incredible new novel from bestselling author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz, Heather Morris. Gripping, heartbreaking and uplifting, The Piano Teacher of Montparnasse will publish late in 2026.

Our first proofs are here and we're a little bit in love! And it means we can FINALLY start getting this incredible novel out there. We have a small number of these for members of our Firefinch Charm community, so make sure to sign up asap to be in with a chance!

Our first (ever) catalogues have just landed hot off the press and ready to go to Frankfurt Book Fair! We think they look pretty swish, don't you?

We had such a fun night introducing our team, our associates and our authors to one another at a very special event. It was amazing to take a moment to celebrate everything we have achieved in just a few months as we get ready to launch our first books into the world.

We've sent our first proofs to print! Now seems like the perfect time to remind any book reviewers, bookstagrammers and booktokkers about our Firefinch Charm community – sign up today to be first in line for proofs and early reading opportunities: http://eepurl.com/jgrOpo
