@thecuratesegg @LibraryLane1978 @peterbunzl Update: it was resounding thumbs up for our book group and also the first book we have all loved 🥰

[Back2thebook2 @back2thebook2]

Looking forward to the chat tomorrow 😍 ps I loved the book too and agree completely with @LibraryLane1978 comments @peterbunzl

Read this book as part of my @back2thebook2 book group and I am glad that I did!
It is a fast-paced steampunk-esque adventure with two extremely likeable characters and a mechanical fox.
What I also liked was that even though it is part of series it finishes in a satisfying way.

We are still here - rain or rain - Saturday read in / read outs at Maryhill Library.

Sort it out @glasgowlife⁩ ⁦@GlasgowCC⁩ ⁦@scotgov⁩

@AnthonyHorowitz @Tw1nblad3 The question is : what was the line?! And wow what a memory to remember the same line!

Help - landlord potentially selling our shop-we could buy it for £35K-I panicked until I thought-is 1000 people investing £35 to have their name written on the outside of the building and receive a free pre-loved book every month for a year silly? #booktwitter #kindnesstrain

Today @scotonsunday launches a Support Our Libraries campaign. Here is my longread on the ones that remain closed and the disconnect between the national strategy, which places them at the heart of the post-Covid recovery, and the reality on the ground. https://t.co/RNetxNCKEr

[Back2thebook2 @back2thebook2]

This! See article below.

Finally people in Cathcart can get free books at The Couper, but only thanks to @CouperSave and @SaveGlasgowLibs. About time we could get books again from our historic library!

[Save Maryhill Library @SaveMaryhill]

Another strong showing outside the library this morning 📖 Maryhill wants its library back now @SusaninLangside

[Back2thebook2 @back2thebook2]

Update: Finished! Fantastic book and found myself reading at any free moment to find out what happened next. Didn’t see the ending coming either! And ending set up for the next book 😀 @AnthonyHorowitz

AW: 🙌🙌🙌 @AnthonyHorowitz 3 chapters in before bedtime / your voice as the narrator is so distinctive in the book, really enjoying it and my name is also a palindrome 👍😎 #hawthorne #anna #needtogotobed
