I had a brilliant time last night in #Leeds with @bonnierbooks_uk at a lovely dinner with three authors, @londonbessie @natashasolomonsauthor and @anyabergmanwriter How High We Go in the Dark by Sequoia Nagamatsu was our #bookclub read for May at The Rabbit Hole #brigg It’s @therabbithole.brigg #readinggroup on Monday and so I’ve started reading this month’s book, #howhighwegointhedark by @sequoia.n Out tomorrow, I read #fyneshade by @kateagriffin over Easter when I was struck down with the lurgey! It’s just me hanging out with @bonnie_garmus_author on the Supper at Six set at the #britishbookawards ☺️ Eeeek!!! A story of obsession featuring true crime fanatic, Roach and her fellow bookseller, Laura. Death of a Bookseller was definitely a book of two halves for me. I treated myself to a lovely social media break this weekend, and I was lucky enough to have an extra long weekend with a trip to Skipton to celebrate my husband’s birthday. Thanks to a bit of a post-covid reading slump I’ve been behind on my #buddyread which was #Fingersmith by Sarah Waters. Thank you @manilla_press  @bonnierbooks_uk for this gorgeous proof of #TheIllusions by @londonbessie
