Oh my days, @thebobpalmer I’ve just finished Main Characters and I am stunned by its beauty and originality.

A huge thanks to the person who DM'd me today telling me in no uncertain terms that "The Secret" in @Pilcrow_Books 13 Deadly Intentions was "a fucking masterpiece" & needed to be made into a book at my earliest convenience. Thank you. It's on the list to write.
Meanwhile...

Happy publication day to @JoannaCannon for the glorious An Unlikely Visitor.

@bertsbooks I finished An Unlikely Visitor yesterday (totally gorgeous book, featuring your very own shop 😊) and started Main Characters.

[Joanna Cannon @JoannaCannon]

I am so touched (and very appreciative!) when people take the time, not only to read my books, but to write such beautiful, thoughtful reviews. This is wonderful, thank you so much, Marianne ❤️

[Kerry Young @ke33er]

@JoannaCannon I’m 40% through it and am falling more and more in love with your characters. I can’t wait to finish it over the weekend 😍

[Kerry Young @ke33er]

@Laurahallissey Hope you enjoy it, I thought it was great

[Charlotte Edwardes @chedwardes]

My debut novel Trouble Was will be published by @BloomsburyBooks on July 2nd.
It's set in 1976, has heat, danger, feral kids and filthy old houses. Writers who I admire hugely have said lovely things about it. I hope you enjoy it.

@margaritapoet @ScribnerBooks Thank you 😊

[Kerry Young @ke33er]

I’ve had a rubbish week personally and professionally so I’m more than ready for 4 days in the garden reading in the sun. That prospect was made even better when this arrived.
Thanks to Amy at @ScribnerBooks for sending me a copy of Frida Slattery as Herself by Ana Kinsella

[Kerry Young @ke33er]

@OttavioMCMLXI @ScribnerBooks Thanks, it’s much needed

Maybe we’d build a healthier reading culture if people spent more time championing books they love rather than publicly humiliating the ones they don’t.

Not every book is written for every reader. That’s fine. But the constant sneering around “bad” books or mocking people for what they enjoy reading creates an atmosphere where readers feel judged instead of welcomed.

Reading for pleasure should never feel like a test.

In the National Year of Reading 2026 and the message to GO ALL IN, this matters more than ever. If we want more people to read, discover bookshops, take chances on stories and build lifelong reading habits, then enthusiasm will always achieve more than literary snobbery.

@BexBookaholic Don’t forget us low folk now you’re hobnobbing with the hoi-polloi 😂
