I love this quote from Edith Sitwell which I find can be applied to absolutely any year in recent memory. Thank God we have books #BookSky

Perhaps controversially, we thought this year's shortlist was also quite weak. Such a shame Seascraper and Endling didn't make the final six.

I loved preparing for this episode, the reading, the comparing notes, the opining. Always, the opining!
Join us for our next episode this Friday when we’ll be discussing the Booker Prize Shortlist. Spoiler: there’s one book we think shouldn’t have made the final cut #BlueSky #readers

Applauding the courage, language and delivery of this speech.

Oh, and I ♥️ NY
Shortly after Zohran Mamdani was anointed the mayor-elect of New York City on Tuesday, he strode onto the stage of a cavernous theater in Brooklyn and delivered a victory speech that celebrated New York’s immigrants, working class and young people. Follow live: nyti.ms/3X9h35I

Here’s the cover for LIKE A CAT LOVES A BIRD: THE NINE LIVES OF MURIEL SPARK, out 16 April with @sceptrebooks.bsky.social

Preorder here: lnk.to/LikeaCatLove...

Please share! The book doing well means I can write another (and fulfil my dream of owning a pizza oven), so it’s pretty serious

I still want to read it, but can't help but feel that if I'm going to tackle an epic western, my first rodeo should probably be Lonesome Dove.

NEW EPISODE 📚🎧 This week’s episode is a BIG one. Or at least, one in which we talk about big things, namely big books and why – or why not – we find them intimidating. And as always, we discuss recent reads and what’s next on our TBRs.
