I wonder if any keen reader ever gets close to thinking “well, I’ve read all the books I want to read”. Personally I am miles away from this point, and the superb stuff regularly offered by the likes of @whiterabbitbks.bsky.social and @newmodernbooks.bsky.social takes me further away!
A reminder of some of the new books we’ve announced we’ll be publishing in the first few months of 2026. Still more to come (keep an eye out), as well as some of our existing favourites moving into paperback, so there’s plenty to look forward to…

2025 marked five years of WR, and in March we celebrated with a massive party in our spiritual home: @thesociallondon.bsky.social. Totally sold out, great music, great vibes. Thank you to everyone who has been to one of our events over the years in that beautiful basement where magic happens 🩶
