Have you seen our latest window art? The wonderful Katie Cottle has done it again!

Guess what it's Prime Day. Jeff doesn't need your cash, your indie bookshops do. UK.bookshop.org is a great start, pick your favourite store and shop like Amazon doesn't exist. #booksky #indiebookshops

It was an incredible evening, thank you for coming along!

It’s good to see me, isn’t it? 💜✨ Yes, yes, the rumors are true — we are OFFICIALLY launching here on Bluesky! In case you forgot, we’re a place to buy books online where every purchase supports local bookstores, not billionaires. Thanks for being here 🙌🏽

You know how annoyed you feel when people post cryptic messages and make you wait to find out what they're talking about? Yeah we're doing that. A visitor is on their way... #booksky

This year has been a mixed bag. So much sadness and loneliness in the world caused by the very platforms that also provide so much joy. A gentle reminder to everyone, third spaces still exist, they still need people to use them, and we thrive in them. 1/2

Good morning Blueskyers! Bluskis? What are we as a collective? Anyway we're back open so come and spend your book tokens with us!

A very merry and happy and peaceful Christmas to you all. We're outta here for 3 whole days, see you on the 28th.

Good morning, it's a beautiful day for a book from your favourite indie bookshops.

Storm update: we're open! But who knows for how long. Come visit only if it's safe for you to do so.

I really doubt we'll be open today due to the insane weather. My heart is breaking, this is the most important month of the year for us. My plea: please don't go to Amazon, just hang tight, we'll be back on Monday. If you want to go online we have subscriptions on our website! 1/2

Teenagers. What do you get a 16 year old boy who won't so much as grunt in your general direction? Books is what. Anything you've read from this that you'd be happy to get as a teenager? https://uk.bookshop.org/lists/what-to-get-your-late-teen-boy-for-christmas

A free gift card with enough cash to buy everyone you love a book?! Yes please. uk.bookshop.org/shop/maxmine...

Btw if you love translated fiction then you must follow our Assistant Manager Ev @evehbookseller.bsky.social and if you're in Bristol you MUST come along to her translated fiction book club because it's fantastic and sometimes an author shows up! #booksky #translatedfiction

It's #Wrapped time and I do mean book wrapped 🫔 First up: Fiction Book of the Year. No surprises here considering how much we love Carys Davis in this shop. #booksky

Thank you to everyone who supported us in store and online yesterday. You made this cold hearted bookseller crack a smile.

Seriously please do this for Christmas. Bonus is it's free shipping right now! Just pick us as your shop.

Reminder that your favorite local indie bookstores make a lot of their yearly income during the holiday season. Go shop local today. ❤️

Audiobooks count as reading. They also make a great gift. @librofm.bsky.social support indies, so we support them and so should you. libro.fm/gift?booksho... to get gift credit bundles.

Here's an idea, how about 12 books for Christmas, your choice of Fiction, Non-fiction, or Children's, individually wrapped and presented in a beautiful box, for 12% off the total? Gift them to 12 people or maybe just 1 bookworm. Order before the 18th Dec - book wrapping elves will be busy!

It's so lovely to see old friends on here. A request/plea: Consider buying from indie bookshops for Christmas. It's been a shit year tbh and we all need help. If you have friends and family in the UK, why not try a book subscription! maxminervas.co.uk/collections/...

The @bookshop-org-uk.bsky.social Books That Give campaign is running through to the end of December. You can find the list of books here: uk.bookshop.org/lists/books-... and get Christmas gifts AND donate at the same time. #booksky

So nice to be in this lovely place. Hang out with us!
