Dr Emma Kavanagh

This year has pushed us all to the point of breaking. You’re not alone in falling apart. But psychology contains secrets. About what happens when we break, what that brokenness can give us, & what comes next. We can make it through this! amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B09…

And the psychopath only wins, if we are blind to their tricks. Through stories & science, let’s move closer to the psychopath together & pull that curtain back.

In this non-fiction, we will talk about the psychopath & why what we know about them is wrong. More importantly, we will talk about what they do to us. How they change the way we see the world & ourselves. Knowledge is power.

We know what a psychopath is. At least, we think we do. In these troubled times, it feels like psychopathy is everywhere, corrupting all that makes our societies good. We need the truth more than ever.

This week will be sponsored by stock signings and cheering loudly at Every Time We Burn being selected as March’s Waterstone’s Welsh Book of the Month. There will be signed copies scattered liberally across South Wales (apologies to the North & very West - I still love you).

Doors open in 20 minutes. Pop in to pick up some fantastic writing from Welsh authors, with fabulous new books from @CaroleAHailey, @claremackint0sh, @EmmaLK and, of course, our Welsh Book of the Month, Carys Davies' #Clear!

My book recommendation for @ListenToAlfred this week is the fabulous #TheTimeOfTheFire by @EmmaLK thisisalfred.com/podcast/the-al… (from approx 54:12) @orionbooks

Black Thorn is insanely cheap for the whole of February. If you fancy reading a slow-burn psychological thriller with an autistic main character, fill your boots 🧡 rb.gy/yt7mlh @panmacmillan
