A tiny world of books and bookish gifts. Come visit, bring chocolate! Owner is a delight, at times. Drinker of terrible tea (allegedly)

Another quick one tonight as I'm off out again. Two weeks in a row - I'll need a lie down for a fortnight! Thank you so much for your support this week. Honestly, it means the world.
This week's #TopTenBestsellingTitles for you to peruse!

Would you like a book for just £2? I'm having another clear out and offering these books at a ridiculous price. Please note that some might have slight damage, but tbh, a lot are uncollected and unpaid for orders. Yes, I know, take a deposit in the future 😭

British rain or Irish rain, I've got you covered. Just call me your umbrella.

I’ve actually done a thing on time – the first 12 Books of Christmas box is ready! Fancy gifting “the best Christmas present ever”? Just tell me the recipient's favourite genre + your budget.
From £48 (and £5 off if you reuse last year’s box).

I'm heading out out, but time for a quick thank you to everyone for your support this week. Here are this week's #TopTenBestsellingTitles for your delight!

THEY’RE BACK!
The 12 Books of Christmas were a big hit last year, and people have been asking, so they're back! 12 wrapped books, one surprise every month of 2026. Prices from £48 (or £5 off if you reuse last year’s box). All I need from you is the preferred genre (if any), and I’ll do the rest.

Stationery addicts, look away now...

A new range of literary quote notebooks and pens have just arrived!

Perfect for the budding writers amongst you, or like me, if you love to write a to-do list, which you promptly forget about 🙈

An Irish Book I discovered at a bookshop event.

I picked up #TheGhostLimb by @clairemitchell.bsky.social at the #DromoreBookFestival - organised by the legendary @bridgebooksdromore.bsky.social. Claire was joined onstage by @lindaervine.bsky.social that night.

That's a wrap on #IrishBookWeek. It genuinely has been lovely. Three events, plus two Library NI events and lots of love for Irish books & authors! This week's #TopTenBestsellingTitles stack has to be the bestselling Irish titles of the week! Thank you for all your support, Les xx

Day 8 #IrishBookWeekChallenge (yes, @lwestwoodauthor.bsky.social, 8 days in our week)
Share an Irish book you discovered at a book event. I'm having to bend the rule today as, obvs, I knew this book already, but after listening to Wendy speak on Monday night, I can't wait to start The Benfactors!
