Guess who's made it into @guardian Top 50 Summer Reads? (We think you missed a few @montylitfest.bsky.social writers tbh).

Nice one @jonathancoe.bsky.social and @jonsavage.bsky.social

You know all the best places to head for @jonathancoe.bsky.social ! So looking forward to talking about #theproofofmyinnocence at #hexhambookfestival

@jonathancoe.bsky.social

I got #TheProofofMyInnocence as a birthday present. I read it in one day; it's very clever and extremely entertaining. I read 'Fiery Elephant' when it came out, so I got the B.S.Johnson references about auto-fiction. Well done sir, excellent work!

Thanks to @jonathancoe.bsky.social and @valmcdermid.bsky.social for a fascinating hour talking books, crime writing, state of the nation and more at the Oxford Lit Fest this evening. Sorry if I went a bit fanboy as you both signed my books. Do love #TheProofOfMyInnocence.

Brilliant Jonathan Coe novel, The Proof of my Innocence

Hand knit hat

Time has been the best present this Christmas.

Knitted a hat and read a full book (without having to flip back and forth to see who was who and what was what).

#TheProofOfMyInnocence - raging and rollicking, roistering and thoroughly recommended!

Onwards to 2025!

Sleeping cat with book on duvet.

Nesting with the new @jonathancoe.bsky.social, and cat. Reader under duvet. Already gripped. That’s Friday sorted. #TheProofOfMyInnocence

Just finished #JonathanCoe #TheProofOfMyInnocence, super ingenious state-of-the-nation, state-of-the-novel, state-of-the-world multi-layered flood of brilliance. As ever, he’s sharp, smart, wry and relevant!

On my way to my final event of the year, hosting the lovely @jonathancoe.bsky.social at Waterstones Deansgate in #Manchester, a few tickets left, so if you’re after some bookish chat and respite from the Christmas markets… you know where we are! #books #theproofofmyinnocence
