A perfect read for International Women's Day and every day, I feel. A fabulous work by Cia Brayfield.

I thought this was a rather fitting read as we make our way through Wiltshire on this Solstice day. Another fantastic work by @BookwormVaught, with beautiful illustrations by Maya Chessman.

Orbital was not only the bestselling book of the shortlist, it was the bestselling book because of indie bookshops. It's currently the fifth bestselling book across Indies in the UK. The moral here? Listen to Indies, they know what's good.

@HamishH1931 Excellent. Thank you for the reminder 🙏🧡. I have now ordered my copy from one of our local independent bookshops.

Happy publication day to DEBORAH LEVY & The Position of Spoons —
