Well this is just grim. The old chestnut of people being too frightened to say want they think, just admit you want to spread hate.
Instant block for anyone following this page, I’m sick of the acceptance of transphobic views just because people like some author’s books 🏳️⚧️❤️
Everything feels hard at the moment but here’s a picture of my Acer tree which always looks it’s best just before the leaves fall off.

Really shocked and angry at Tilly’s treatment here. How can standing up against a transphobic author be a sackable offence!
Full solidarity with Tilly and the independent bookstores in Brighton should snap her up 🏳️⚧️❤️
Hey
#BookTwitter
. I think you hopefully all know I generally try to keep this a positive space, but I can’t really put a positive spin on how I feel right now.
My heart is broken, and I’m so disappointed in a company who won’t forgive a single mistake like this.
Just finished a book that I didn’t enjoy, which leaves me conflicted as a book reviewer. Is it the right thing to only post positive reviews? I’d never tag an author in a negative review but I’m conscious they often end up seeing twitter posts anyway! What do you do?
🎁Thank you so much to everyone who helped me choose 18 books for my daughter’s 18th birthday! I took lots of inspiration from your suggestions as well as a few I know she’ll love. Can’t believe I’ll have an 18 year old tomorrow!
Let me know if I picked your recommendation! 🎁
If you were a 17 year old boy with an interest in history, travel, and gaming what would you want for your birthday?
Please don’t say driving lessons or you’ll tip me over the edge!
To celebrate reaching 2000 followers I’m gifting one of you lucky lot a book from your wish list up to the value of £15!

All of these authors were new to me in 2023 and I will definitely be reading whatever they write next - they’re all fantastic books!
Let me know if there’s one here that you loved or that you’re planning to read in 2024!
I’m completely overwhelmed by all the responses to this tweet yesterday, needless to say there’s enough books here to keep her going for years!
I’ll definitely do an update post once I’ve chosen 📚❤️
My daughter is turning 18 soon and I’d like to buy her 18 classic books (she will like this I promise!) Any suggestions? I’d like a mix of older and modern stories 📚
Thanks for everyone’s input, these are the lucky 5 heading off to Portugal tomorrow! Also planning a couple of airport purchases!
Now which one do I read first?
Wow, I can’t believe there’s now over 5000 of you tuning in for my bookish chat and occasional rants! Thank you so much and I promise to keep buying more books than I’ll ever be able to read ❤️❤️❤️

The

long list is out and it’s got me thinking. I’ve only read one of these books and only heard of two of the authors - has
#BookTwitter
become an echo chamber?
Off to Google all the books and follow the authors!
How much does the ending of a book impact the rating you give it?
I’ve had a few books recently where I’ve dropped a star in the last 30-50 pages because the ending hasn’t been as strong as the rest of the book 📚
My TBR pile is out of control - there’s over 150 books waiting to be read! I’ve decided I’m putting myself on a book buying ban until my birthday in June 😬with the exception of Looking Glass Sound which I must have asap! Wish me luck 🍀
