Thank you @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social for the wonderful #BookPost today bell hooks collection of essays 'Art on My Mind: Visual Politics' so looking forward to reading this

This the best book I’ve read this year. I am so close to calling it my book of the year. It’s the kind of book that makes you want to crawl into its pages.

The gang are getting back together 🦊 The Impossible Fortune publishes this September!

I've finally completed my debut reading so its time to share my favourite ones. Have you read any?📚

Gorgeous. No notes. We've absolutely outdone ourselves with this cover.

Inside my special Bloodmoon box from @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social for #Silvercloak by Laura Steven

I think it’d be rude if I waited another second to start this beauty.

'Water remembers. It is humans who forget.’ 'There are Rivers in the Sky' is the story of one lost poem, two great rivers, and three remarkable lives – all connected by a single drop of water.

She held her swollen belly and rolled over, the hot tarmac sticking to her face. "Oh, my child." She looked up, and the sun blinded her last moments. "Oh, my love." I started reading this last night, it's not my normal sort of read but I'm gripped! How could I not be with that opening?!

New favourite cover unlocked😍

Hi hello @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social sent me this hat to celebrate Lottie Hazell’s book ‘Piglet’ and yes I will be wearing it 24/7 from now on. Idc if I look bad in hats. This is me now.

Hunchback by Saou Ichikawa trans. Polly Barton A very interesting, bold and sometimes outrageous book. Hunchback is an extraordinary, thrilling glimpse into the desire and darkness of a woman placed at humanity’s edge. A worthy read if only, to know her point of view. @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social

Some very exciting proofs have arrived at the office!

A whistle stop tour today from brunch at Betty’s with the lovely Failing Writers podcast to Waterstones Bradford to sign their copies of #TheListOfSuspiciousThings to the always wonderful @trumanbooks.bsky.social who have supported me from the first time I met them 😍 #booktwitter

2 more sleeps to go🎄

Part 2 ✨

No you can never have enough editions of #HeavenlyBodies by Imani Errui @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social @penguinbooksuk.bsky.social #waterstones #booksky #books

Riddle me this, riddle me that - Christmas edition🎄 I will admit it did take me way longer than it should have to figure out the answer to this 😆

Set your alarms! Evil is making its grand return in 2025 ✨

Bookshop day!

If I’m a bit quiet today it’s definitely not because I’ve locked myself in a meeting room to do some colouring….

Obligatory photo with the office Christmas tree 🎄✨

Her job is to die for. Literally. Most people imagine Death as a skeleton in a black robe, holding a scythe. In reality, she’s quite the opposite. When Death takes a holiday, chaos ensues. Someone is killing people prematurely and she must find the culprit quickly. Proofs are coming, stay tuned!

*clears throat* It's tiiiiiiiiime ✨ We're officially in December so not only is the countdown to Christmas officially on, but it's time to share my favourite books of the year. How many have you read?

🍏 SHE IS GLOWING AND GOLDEN 🍏 ✨ Thank you so much to Rih at @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social for this glittering proof of #DaughterofChaos by A.S. Webb which sounds superb! ✨And this cover?! STUNNING 👏 Publishing January by @michaeljbooks.bsky.social #Gifted #Bookmail

I'm over the rainbow with my Puffin clothbound classic special Wizard of Oz! I love it 💚 Thank you so much @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social 💚

What a way to start the day! I went down to Waterloo Station to visit the installation for Stephen Fry’s ‘Odyssey’ and listen to Stephen read a few chapters from his novel.

🖤 It’s hideous outside! This book seller is home from work and incredibly wet! Ready for a shower, a drink, and going to stay warm with #CarrionCrow by Heather Parry which is gorgeously unsettling!!! Stay cosy, people! 🖤

Beautifully written and very thought provoking tale of two sisters who live in a secluded garden. Biblical echoes, fairy story vibes and a folk horror edge makes this a most gratifying read! Many thanks @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social @doubledayuk.bsky.social for this pretty proof.

An absolutely stunning exclusive edition for a stunning book 😍

🐍 Oh this is gorgeous!!! 🐍 Thank you to Queen Rih at @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social for this stunning foiled proof copy of #TheVipers by Katy Hays which sounds amazing! And look at this cover!! 🤩 Publishing March by @transworldbooks.bsky.social #Gifted #Bookmail

@penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social THANK YOU!!!!! ❤️

Thank you so much Rih! My first ever clothbound classic I can’t believe it. Going to read it tonight before I see Wicked later this week! 💕 @penguinhuddleuk.bsky.social

I can't believe we're 30 days away from Christmas 🎄🎁 What books are on your Christmas wishlist? I've got Quicksilver by Callie Hart, She's Always Hungry by Eliza Clark, & Blue Sisters by Coco Mellors on mine. Is there anything else I should add?

We've got several debut novels coming next year that are fab, but to say I'm excited for Seán Hewitt's debut novel is a massive understatement. His poetry is sublime, I just know his novel is going to be magnificent. I'll share my thoughts as soon as I read it ✨

I've spent all day thinking long and hard about what my first post on here should be, and I thought what could be more iconic than saying hi while revealing the Waterstones exclusive paperback edition of 'A Fate Inked in Blood'. So, hello everyone. I hope you love this edition as much as I do ❤️
