As a sincere fan of physical and ebooks -

*I want to spend money on your book.*

Don't make me jump through unnecessary hoops to see a sample of your book (with non fiction, just a contents page is often enough) or to BUY YOUR BOOK.

Have your own website.

Don't expect me to trawl Facebook/Twitter or (FFS) Instagram/TicTok to get info about your book

I want to buy your book

Make it hard for me to see or buy your book and I will simply NOT BUY YOUR BOOK

Since I am alone in the office today, I decided to spend my lunchtime walking into Brussels.

It turns out that I am a lot closer to Waterstones than I realised. This could prove to be both incredibly convenient and frighteningly expensive.

I'm starting a new book today. Normal People by Sally Rooney.

I bought it on a #bookbuying trip to #Victoria, #BC last October, and it's been sitting on my shelves ever since. Victoria has a great selection of independent #book stores so I make a point of doing a little book buying trip there every so often.

My favorite part of being an editor is definitely getting to hype up my authors and their upcoming books 😈✨ so anyway, consider putting Stars, Hide Your Fires on your TBR (or even preordering it!! preorders are super helpful) if you're interested in a queer murder mystery set in space 💫

And here's me "hello, fellow kids"-ing it up on booktok, lol:

Dorothy Project’s six #books for $75 (and free shipping) was too tempting this year, so I grabbed some books I’ve had my eyes on. 👀 Which one should I start with?
