@vanjchan @WomensPrize @JessGeorge_ @ka_bradley @HodderBooks @HodderFiction Loved attending your talk! Thanks for a fabulous hour and I can’t wait to read your book when it comes out. 😊

@WomensPrize @louiseminchin @LalinePaull @b_kingsolver @Luidas @KennedyLoulou @FaberBooks @BloomsburyBooks @TinderPress @vintagebooks @Duckbooks They all did! Incredible readings, but I was the most loved by Barbara Kingsolver reading the incredible opening to Demon Copperhead. All of the authors were absolutely amazing!

Trying to use my phone less in January to be more productive so I will be taking a one month break from Twitter. I’ll still be on Instagram- you can find me there @ aliceandthegiantbookshelf
Wishing everyone a great start to 2023! Happy New Year. 🥳

@sophiehannahCB1 Yay for more Poirot!

@sophiehannahCB1 Will be excited whatever it is but would love it if it was more Charlie and Simon!

@cox_tom Just sat and read and loved this, much as I love your books so far! It pushed Villager to the very top of my need to read list (it’s staring at me from my shelf), and made me want to read Stet. I love finding weird looking books, but usually buy them for myself, not Joan.

@cox_tom I saw Villager looking awesome on the new books shelf in a local library yesterday and found myself saying very loudly to my Mum “look it’s Tom Cox’s book!”
