Got a message that Sophie Grenham’s Annual Bookshop of the year poll is taking place now & Red Books is currently in second place!
We had our year basking in the glamour in ‘23 but there’s plenty of other worthy candidates.

Uploading new books to our website https://t.co/c02kgwJ8Of.
We have purchased some massive collections recently, many of which haven't made it near our shops. Lots of new titles will be added directly to the website over the coming weeks.
Thanks so much to @sophiegrenham and the @Independent_ie for today's write up about Red Books.
I think Sophie really got the ethos of our bookselling experience, focusing not just on the books, the events and the booksellers, but on our customers who give life to the place.
Beautiful day for taking a stroll and browsing in the local bookshop, picking up a book and reading it outside.
Or you could take your rabbit for a walk...
