London pals! I'm looking for an indie bookshop I can go get Rhythm Of War from when the shops reopen. I've already read the kindle edition but want the hardback too for my @BrandSanderson collection 😂 Ideally in the Finchley/North London area which I still dont know well yet.

I don't know why I thought reading this sampler would help tide me over until Rhythm Of War comes out next month when all its actually done is made me very sad that I have to wait 4 weeks to continue reading 😭 Oh well, back to The Way Of Kings for my reread of the series so far!
And if you can't wait until 17th November, we have a little treat for you: check out this digital sampler for a sneak preview of the opening chapters from @BrandSanderson's epic #RhythmOfWar! 📖 Read at: bit.ly/RhythmOfWarSampler 🛒 Pre-order from: smarturl.it/RhythmOfWarUK

Rock Of Ages is the best Tom Cruise film and this is a hill I am willing to die on 😂
Absolutely lovely piece from @storytellersinc about falling in love with bookselling again over lockdown

Ok I know I'm rather late on this but I have just finished reading The Flat Share by Beth O'Leary and what a lovely, heartwarming book! I briefly considered some not disimilar rental situations when I first moved to London but I doubt I would have had quite the same ending 😂
I'm currently reading 84K by Claire North. The best dystopias are books where you could picture a way that it could become reality, and this is definitely one of those!

Teary eyed after watching Watership Down and also remembering why this was one of my favourite books

Ok so I loved the latest Brandon Sanderson novel! Totally different to his others but really great. Highly recommend : D amzn.to/2PPktdu

I wish social media sites had a "I've already bought this, show me something else" button on adverts. Facebook is very insistantly showing me adverts for Skyward by Brandon Sanderson. Which you know, is very relevent for me, other than the fact I bought it on release day.

Any sci-fi book suggestions? :)

This big time! I mainly know how to pronounce things now, but because my vocabulary was large through reading - I often made incorrect assumptions of pronunciation. In fact I still get Epitome wrong a lot because I said it in my head wrong so many times before hearing it spoken
