The end of this book made me cry on the train. Don’t #GetKeshed if you want to preserve the tattered veil of your masculinity. @stuhennigan.bsky.social @ortacpress.bsky.social

Guess the postie just answered the question about what I’m going to read next @stuhennigan.bsky.social #GetKeshed

#Bookpost Looking forward to reading this, finally @drewgum.bsky.social. Hooray for the new print run. With thanks @ronanhession.bsky.social for the recommendation

Getting into the zone for #Keshed by reading Jenn Ashworth’s Cold Light, which has been on my pile for a bit, and is on @stuhennigan.bsky.social’s list of adjacent tomes

I’ve just finished the audio book version of #TitaniumNoir by @nickharkaway.com and I loved it like a hungover Englishman loves a fry up. Satisfying and compelling

I had hoped this BBC piece was about the enigmatic and mysterious Beaver Supermoon of 70’s folk-psych band Bonfire Night making an unexpected (but welcome) resurgence in popularity in the latter stages of this year. Sadly it turned out to be an article on the weather

Hello! My CEO Roscoe and I are giving away TWO signed copies of my novel 1983 to two randomly selected people who repost this & pop a reply below. You also get a free postcard of this illustration of Roscoe by my mum. It’s been called “Stranger Things rewritten by Kurt Vonnegut & Sue Townsend”…

Woke up at 3am. Couldn’t get back to sleep so continued reading Jesus Christ Kinski that I’d started the evening before. It’s brilliant! The juxtaposition between Kinski mid on-stage breakdown and the writer on the writing is fantastic. It is superbly put together @benjaminmyers76.bsky.social Bravo.

Hi @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social, I’ve just finished Everything Will Swallow You and thought it brilliant. It made me smile and laugh and go hah! exactly the right amount (in my opinion). Thanks for writing it, and for persevering through all the shit. It’s a wonderful book

I passed Paul Whitehouse on the escalators in the Virgin Megastore on Oxford Street, exchanging the slightest of nods. I was going up, he was going down, and had the look of a man satisfied with his purchase.

Too late…And I’ll tell you why. They’ve already cloned you. Why? To *fight* you. After all, who knows you better than you? Your weaknesses. Your strengths. Your valour. Your vices. Oh yes. It’s too late! Signed up for this? You’re going to fight yourself on Mars in a dome for oligarch entertainment.

I have been playing around with the audiobook loan facility from my local library (recommended) and am listening to Mrs Death Misses Death by @salenagodden.bsky.social and, oh my god, there can be no better way to absorb this book than having Salena read it to you. Utterly magical

I’ve been looking forward to this. It’s going straight to the top of the TBR pile #Booksky @whiterabbitbks.bsky.social

My local library in Easingwold is fantastic. It’s primarily run by volunteers who are all really invested in what they do. The children’s section is brilliant and there are lots of events organised to get kids into reading too

Hi @juliansimpson.bsky.social I recently found and listened to your brilliant Aldrich Kemp series. It was the first thing of yours that I have, and I loved it. So obviously I went straight to The Lovecraft Investigations and The Case of Charles Dexter Ward. Also fantastic, and I am hooked. But…

Today I finished listening to the last episode of the last Aldrich Kemp series (Aldrich Kemp & the Rose of Pamir) by @juliansimpson.bsky.social & a brilliant cast. Now I am sad & elated in equal measure. They are so good. All available on BBC Sounds. Treat yourself www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/...

@elfoginho.bsky.social Howdy. Hope all is well in your world. I see your cat, and raise you a meerkat.

Just finished the latest @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social novel which is just as atmospheric and absorbing as his other writing and left me feeling like the walls of my reality softened and flexed in an exceptionally delightful way

Finally got to visit @vocebooks.bsky.social while travelling for work this week. Brilliant shop, so thoughtfully curated. Picked up a couple of books I’ve been after for a while @markabowles.bsky.social @galleybeggars.bsky.social @fitzcarraldoeds.bsky.social

We’ve seen a great idea that we’re going to arrange for our baby next Christmas. A book advent calendar. Wrap up 24 Christmas books and unwrap and read one each day. Same books every year. So. What are your favourite Christmas books for kids? #booksky

This is a really great intro to some lovey folk doing cool things with books and writing in the North. Thanks @beckreads.bsky.social Great to find my favourite York bookshop in here too @littleapplebkshop.bsky.social

@dimorphodons.bsky.social nice to find you here. I love The Villager. A wonderful album. Perfectly accompanies Tom’s book.

Yesterday saw the release of @mrrichardnorris.bsky.social’s fuzzed out compilation Weird Scenes from the Hangout which is every bit as good as I had hoped. Not available on streaming services, but some kind soul has created a playlist of its tracks open.spotify.com/playlist/1Lg...

This is a really useful starter for UK and Irish indie publishers. Glad to find @ofmooseandmen.bsky.social and @charco.bsky.social on here Thanks @phenryward.bsky.social
