That feeling when you find the January edition of @TheFriendMag on the backseat of your husband's farm truck; all the stories still to be read, the wintry harbour cover illustration still to be enjoyed each time it's spotted on the table!

@PhillipaAshley That’s absolutely lovely ❤️‍🩹

I framed this of me & mum in the helicopter to Tresco. Mum had nothing when she was young. We shared a council house with my grandparents & her siblings after she was widowed at 20. It was a huge thrill to whisk her for a champagne lunch with the earnings from my books.

Just a small one this year; potted for onward growth too 🎄➡️🌲 #Christmas2024

@LauraPAuthor So sorry to hear this ❤️‍🩹

My mum died on Tuesday. And I have so much to say about it but also nothing. Dealing with the exhaustion of grief so please forgive me for late replies and general chaos.

Best thing on twitter this year 🤩

@thereadingpara Actually proving I don’t need to be here at all 😂😂

@katefbaker Aww thanks! It’s on Instagram aswell! 😄

@HeatherJFitt @sarasheridan I know I’m not on X any more, but I did just see your post had have ordered this book 😂

This gorgeous book, The Secrets of Blythswood Square by @sarasheridan will be keeping me company while I wait out the foul weather 🤗

@SteveGowland I haven’t seen season 1, and I presume it has nothing to do with horses?!

I love Slow Horses but season three is really poor.

The people at @caxtonbooks don’t hang about, look 🤩 @LouiseWriter 🖤💙🤍 That’ll mean another lush breakfast one day next week in the cafe opposite methinks 🥰

@AwaisKhanAuthor @OrendaBooks @AJWestAuthor @katrinjul @writer_suzy AJ’s … it’ll break your heart ❤️‍🩹

A meeting with Karen @OrendaBooks isn't complete without a gift of lovely books! While I've got some of these on my Kindle, I'd been dying to read them in print. @AJWestAuthor @katrinjul @writer_suzy Can't wait to dive right in! Which ones have you guys read?

You have to bring the claws out when reading Halloween stuff, obviously Great evening at Manningtree Arts Book shop #shortstories #spookymonth

This is incredible, @markstay how very exciting!!!

@BexBookaholic Opening scene, for sure!

Sat in my car down a very dark country lane on my own waiting for someone. Been here 20 minutes so far. This is a Halloween horror story waiting to happen, isn't it?!

@LouiseWriter @caxtonbooks Can’t wait to read it!

@katefbaker @caxtonbooks You’re a superstar Kate!🩵⚓️🩵

Determined to buy a copy of this from an independent bookshop. First port of call will be @caxtonbooks tomorrow as I need to go in that direction anyway 🤩
