First book of today was Tracks on the Ocean - in a shocking display of inefficiency, it's not on the website, but we'll get it added so that you too can join in the maritime fun!

Really enjoyed this take on Orwell’s classic- great read👍
Let's see what the team are reading this week.
Bert is reading "Julia", a retelling of 1984 from, well, Julia's point of view. I've heard a lot of good stuff about this one... - Michael

Have preordered my copy from @bertsbooks.bsky.social 👍👍
One of those pinch-me moments! Sara was so lovely and welcoming and I got to meet Vernon Kay too! We talked all about THE ART OF A LIE and it will be available to listen to from Tuesday next week. What a brilliant day! 💚🍍🍦

Already preordered my copy from @bertsbooks.bsky.social loved all of Laura’s other books. So looking forward to this one! 👍
If you haven't read all of Laura's books, you should read all of Laura's books, especially if you like historical fiction and deep, dark immersive stories.
My new book, THE ART OF A LIE, is out in the UK three weeks today! It's a tale of murder, trickery, love, betrayal & Georgian London's first 'iced cream' parlour. I can't wait for you to meet Hannah & William, my two favourite characters of any of my books 💚🍍🍦

Having a rare Wednesday where I get to play in the shop, while Michael ties the ribbons out the back.
I sold today's first book, too! It was 1979 by @valmcdermid.bsky.social - who by the way, rather excitingly is coming to visit us in October!

Liverpool are exceptionally good, and Spurs are exceptionally tired, battered, and disjointed. 4-0 feels entirely just, but no less disappointing #COYS

My novel Thomas True is about minorities finding strength but also turning on each other in the face of terror enacted by a self-appointed moral vigilante force supported by the State. It happened in the 1700s. It's always happened. Read history to understand the present and protect the future. 🦚🇺🇲

Fantastic performance from Spurs. Absolutely knackered after 30 minutes, but never let the concentration drop. Defended robustly, passed sensibly out from the back, and took their rare chances. Djed Spence incredibly good

I want to commend Trudeau for stating that it’s important that “no one part of the country should carry a heavier burden than any other. We’re all in this together and we will get through this together.”
That’s the Canadian way. We don’t abandon one another. We come together.
