Fellow publicists❗️It’s less than 2 weeks (!!) until we publish THE NAMES by Florence Knapp - this debut will make you feel ALL the feels, it’s beautiful and heartbreaking and astonishing and hopeful and it needs to be at the top of your TBR pile! If you’d like one, let me know!

A gorgeous afternoon in beautiful Bath proof dropping copies of #TheNames by Florence Knapp and debuting the brand new totes (❗️) Thank you for having us @waterstonesbath @mrbsemporium @ToppingsBath 🥰

We’re back on the road! And this time, we took #TheNames by Florence Knapp south west, starting our day in sunny Bristol visiting the lovely @StorysmithBooks, @Waterstones262, Bookhaus and @HeronBooks ☀️

My favorite display I've ever done (don't tell the others). 'The Lamb' by the glorious @lucyrosecreates is now out in the world. @wnbooks @orionbooks

[Cait Davies @CaitDavies]

Wild to be even mentioned in the same breath as some of these legends tbh – thank you #Futurebook! 🥸 Biggest congratulations to fellow @orionbooks shortlist legends @avjreads and Charlotte Abrams-Simpson, working with you both is simply the best 🌟

I don’t know much but I do know that this book is going to be massive next year, and rightly so. Have reread #TheNames by Florence Knapp this week and it is a very, very special one indeed

You'll find me here for the rest of the afternoon (#orionwinterhours), re-reading the spectacular debut novel from Florence Knapp, #TheNames 🐻

Not pictured: me, wrapped in a fluffy blanket, with a mug of hot chocolate and a slice of Get Baked chocolate cake—living the dream 🧡

[Sarah Brooks @Sarah_L_Brooks]

Oh my goodness, this book... The Lamb, by @lucyrosecreates is one of the most horrifying, beautiful, and memorable things I've read. Gorgeously written and incredibly moving (and also very disturbing). I miss Margot's vivid voice already... Out in Jan from @wnbooks

[Javerya Iqbal @JaveryaI]

@FloraWillis_ @Phoenix_Bks Enjoy 🥰

[ollie @ollie__martin]

very smug to get back from a fortnight of annual leave and a 24-hour whip around the country to one of the hottest proofs of next year — thank you @JaveryaI and @francescamain for an early copy of The Names.

out May 2025 from @orionbooks
