I don’t think I have ever been more proud of seeing anything in my life!

Discovered today that there’s a out there by Simone De Beauvoir that I need to read. Only I’ve never read any of her stuff before 😂

Went to , apparently the book is OOP, meh. So now I’m going to have to resort to trawling second hand book stores to find it as don’t sells it for less than £30 😩

If anyone sees a copy of Simone De Beauvoir - America Day by Day, no matter where you are in the world - let me know and if it’s cheap, I’ll give you the money 💰

@johnelalamo It used to be a nice bookstore to hang out in though. Still the same 12 years later? 📚

Yesterday I found two gift cards that had passed their use-by by date: reinstated theirs. refused to reinstate theirs. Thank you @Waterstones. @W_H_Smith end top getting money for nothing. Guess which company I’ll use in future.

Seeing and signing my book FRIEND ME in a bookstore is the thrill of my life. Thank you Gower Street for having FRIEND ME (Scholastic) on the shelves of your magnificent children's section. This shop is book paradise, people... stop by if you can. Shown here with a domesticated Dalek (OR IS IT?)

A bit o' Yorkshire tiling for .

This is from the stunning Waterstones in the old Wool Exchange in Bradford. The building is like a church inside and all the original features are preserved.

Give us your best examples...

I haven't been in my nearest since ... before COVID-19 if memory serves.

It seems to have gained a massive section.

And graphic novels are an entire section of their own, instead of a small afterword at the bottom of "Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Horror".

So I ... didn't buy any, but instead bought the novelization of "Valerian and the city of 1000 planets", to compare it to the movie.

I shopped in in Gloucester, England last week and, as usual, browsed the section. I was really disappointed that there wasn't a single Isaac Asimov book on the shelves. It wasn't due to popularity just that "We don't stock that author."

Asimov invented the 3 laws of robotics that are present in almost all science fiction stories.

Thankfully the comic section had lots of publications.

<Heavy sigh>
