SOPH!!! I'm so incredibly thrilled this book is out in the world. It's terrifying and creepy in all the right ways, original and cool and unlike anything out there.

I'm wishing it the best of luck and championing it from afar. Go you x x

My children are playing bookshops together. They are selling books, and writing books to sell.
