I think I may be a tad obsessed? 🤔. Love Prize season! Thank you to all Booktubers for their prediction videos 🥰🥰

Thank you.
Oh that sounds like a fab way to spend your evening. Enjoy 🥳. Watched the BBC L&HP yesterday and thought they’d done an exceptional job - I loved the way it stayed close to the original. Look forward to your next novel 😀
How exciting! I’ve just been writing up book club questions for L & HP! Online book club set up by a group in Glasgow. Feel free to join us this Wednesday evening at 8pm if you are free - but I would ask you about your new novel!

I’ve not posted for aaagges! Apologies. Clumsiness led to finger #.
I have now read 7 of the Booker Prize longlist and have another 2 I am working through. I will then be shifting to do ‘Shorty September’. These are my under 200 pp books I’ve chosen. Hope everybody is happy and reading 🥰.

Does reading biographies of some current aspiring dictators count as horror? 🤔. Lovely giveaway Bert 🥰
Fab. Have signed up for the flash fiction one 🥳
I think I have already preordered this as I have adored all Karen’s books so far. Just finished the first of her crime novels. Paper cup was a favourite read of mine last year 🥰
Wonderful to hear. I have just started listening to it on audible 🥰
Thanks. Just set up a subscription 🥳
Thank you. Ordered some 🥰

Highly recommend this wonderful novel. On sale from March 1st. So prophetic and relevant. @jomcmillan.bsky.social @ofmooseandmen.bsky.social

Yes please 🥰
