Thanks - what a read. I agree, think hugely underreported - stigma, fear, shame, lack of a name

Amazing, thank you

The link no longer works unfortunately

I’m reading Pop Scars by Anthony Kavanagh. It’s a memoir of 90s pop - fame and addiction. A change of pace for me after a series of good novels, but came recommended.

😂😂

I'm reading Perfection by Vincenzo Latronico. It's really very good indeed - looking forward to getting back to it at some point today

Thanks to everyone who has come to the show so far. It’s been a blast. There’s about 11 or 12 to go, with tix remaining in a couple of places inc Hull, Bradford and Stoke. And a few in Richmond. Fane.co.uk/jon-ronson

Saw @jonronson.bsky.social talking brilliantly about psychopathy on stage tonight with two fascinating guests. Not sure how many dates left on the tour, but if you can go, do.

Heart the Lover by Lily King. It’s one to devour, am speeding through it. So good.

Blue Lights is SO good. Rare for TV series to start well and get better series by series but Blue Lights does. Brilliant acting, characters to invest in, gripping stories. Loved it. Roll on season 4.

Just did this - amazing!! Thanks!

I went to the cinema twice in the last week. I used to go so often and fell out of the habit. It really is such a fab thing to do - and to focus on the film, not be distracted by all the other things that need doing

Ah, the forlorn look of the book waiting to be read!

YES

Ooh how is it? I LOVED Boy Swallows Universe so much but haven’t read anything else by him

There is one person with a v similar gmail address to me and I have a weird and remarkable insight into their purchasing life

Pure joy

In anyone in a position of power - and also interesting to see whether they notice the change

Yes, exactly this. Expectation setting so vital and so often misunderstood by companies. I just want to know what’s likely, not what might happen under a blue moon

YES!!

A map!!!!

Fab, thanks - will add it to my list!

The Wren, The Wren - what do you recommend I read next??

The Wren, The Wren - where should I go next?

Reading my first Anne Enright - only 20 pages in, but, my God, it’s SO good. How did she pass me by for so long?

Ooh I have never heard of these…

Marquis Cornwallis in Bloomsbury - upstairs bar room. Need to guarantee £1000 spend on food and drink to have the room. Easy to get to
