Suffolk skies… that’s what’s up.

Good Morning Blue Sky! Hope you’re all ok? Today I’m currently reading some great fantasy in the form of Days of Shattered Faith by Adrian Tchaikovsky. What are you reading at the moment?

The three books I have coming out this year. Available from all good booksellers. Don't leave Earth without them!

Forgot to say these are all individually signed prints, you can get them unsigned but that would cost more.

I just want time to read and forget about the world and dive into a story that will take me away.

I am so looking forward to this second instalment…!!

It’s been a while chums. Hope that the world is well with you?

How is it only Thursday? It’s taken a long time to get here and now it’s already dragging on like a dog with worms across the living room rug…

Word of the Day is ‘ingordigiousness’ (18th century): extreme greed at the expense of principles.

HEY! I've got SIGNED copies of Eimear McBride's new book "The City Changes its Face". I love Eimear's books so much. Strange Hotel is wild! I was introduced to her stuff by reading "A Girl Is A Half-formed Thing". Which won EVERY prize! Including the Booker. It's GENIUS part 2 coming up.

These beauties arrived today. SIGNED copies of "Twist" by the amazing Colum McCann. It's published next week, but ooh la la, we've got copies early. Blurb in the ALT text. Order one HERE www.biggreenbookshop.com/signed-copie... (i'd also recommend his book "Let the Great World Spin"btw)

📬 Today’s #BookHaul includes the latest release from @garethlpowell.bsky.social, “Future’s Edge”. I’ve now got quite a collection of them, mostly published by @titanbooks.bsky.social but a few others too. ⚔️ #FantasyBooks 🚀 #SciFiBooks 🪐📚💙 #BookSky 🦋 #FebruaryBookHaul 📦

Today’s efforts brought to you by rain, cold and an unreasonable grin… 😱

I believe Jen to be correct in her assumption… This is indeed a choon. Also, be kind to each other…

Wading through Malazan (yes I said it out loud) and I am hoping that a ten book epic is gonna be worth it… Memoies of Ice is starting to be the best one so far.

In my 50th year I will donate my 50th unit of blood. This weekend was my 100th Parkrun. You can do it. Can’t give blood? Help and encourage someone else to. Can’t do parkrun? Volunteer so others can.

Good evening Bluepals, we are open.

It’s February Eve not February Steve
