Is anyone else finding the festive feeling overtaking them a little earlier than usual this year? We’re not quite ready to switch the playlist over yet, but we’re definitely on the way… 🎄🎄🎄 🖊INSPIRATIONAL XMAS GIFT🖊 Chief among humanity’s greatest feelings at the start of a new week: November sunlight on books 🌞 Don’t be a 5. 🐅MAGGIE CAME TO BRISTOL🐅 Good morning from Roy. 🦆BOOKSELLER’S DOUBLE🦆 Stunning week for the following areas of interest: Dark and cold outside, light and warm inside. Also books inside. And coffee. Very good playlist. Go inside basically. Getting extremely good at consolidating and shuffling the book stacks so that we can make room for the NEW STUFF that simply WILL NOT STOP ARRIVING. If you’re an avid follower of all things relating to the publishing industry you’ll find talk of a ‘meh’ offering for festive purchasers this year. Please allow us to DISAVOW you of this notion, because there are incessant treasures hitting the tables with such incredible regularity - any commentators who complain of paucity are merely NOT LOOKING with their OWN STUPID EYES. ⛪️CRYPT-LIT⛪️ have you yet discovered a more perfect sunday combination than books and coffee BZZZZ wrong no you haven’t 💙CALL YOUR BOY FRIENDS💙 🎃SPOOKY BOOKS🎃 💫IT’S #BOOKSHOPDAY!💫 Lots of cool stuff arrived this week! 🐠 NEW WINDOW 🐠
