Being a reader means constantly deciding between reading the books you already own or buying new ones you’ll also ignore

To get you in the mood for plenty of backstabbing election drama, may I recommend GAY CLUB! (Features all the kids the rancid Conservatives and right-wing press will throw under the bus during the campaign!) 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ It’s the race to be president of a school LGBTQ+ society…

Transphobes will always find a reason to be transphobic, even when it’s an appointment to find out if you had cancer or not.

I’ve been blown away by the kindness and support of wonderful authors who have given their thoughts on the importance of reading ☺️ I’ve started to put their thoughts onto posters for display around school 📚 Thanks @simonjamesgreen @KathrynFoxfield @el_kat @RavenaGuron ❤️

Ugh, the replies from the most repulsive trolls complaining that it’s all the fault of the parents, & ‘People who work for charities shouldn’t earn money’ & ‘But what if some of the books have LGBTQ+ rep?!’ @Booktrust are brilliant. Show them some love and donate if you can.
1 in 5 parents are worried they won't be able to afford a present for their children this Christmas. Will you help send 17,000 festive book parcels to children who need them most? Donate £10 today to share the magic of books this Christmas.

Merrily making every single kindle eBook I've ever published 99p at some point over the next two weeks in the hope someone will actually read it - so if anyone wants any Arcanium or Courts of Faerie eBooks (or pen name stuff) for cheap, keep an eye out!
