An image describing Bookshop Day.
Book shops, especially the small independents, are important gems on our high streets. Places of serendipity and discovery to be valued. Support them if you can.

Shop local. Shops Independent. Books are my bag campaign poster.
Today I posted on the work intranet about #IndieBookshopWeek & recommended some favourite bookshops, & people started posting their favourite bookshops & book recommendations, so that was wonderful. A brilliant campaign @booksaremybag.bsky.social 🧡💛📚📚🧡💛

It’s #IndieBookshopWeek! 📚💗
This year, we’re proud to be twinning with #Bookhaus, a fiercely independent bookshop in the heart of #Bristol.
Bookhaus exemplifies what it means to be purpose-led in bookselling. #BooksAreMyBag
It's #independentbookshopweek! I have a couple of t-shirts which come out at this time of year, and here is one :)
If you live near an independent bookshop, please pop in and give them some business - it's tough. Any purchase at all will be much appreciated!

Poster for independent bookshop week, 14-21 June 2025, with illustration of rolling hills with cute whitewashed bookshop amongst trees. It reads 'shop local, shop independent' at the top, and books are my bag at the bottom, with the hashtags indie bookshop week and choose bookshops.
photo of author Katie Hale - a white woman with long brown hair wearing a bright neon floral pattern dress - smiling and holding her book the edge of solitude - a hardback with coral, lilac and blue sea and clouds and a mint green iceberg on the cover. She is in a garden and there is flowery bunting behind her.
