It has been one of those days where you just feel genuinely touched by the kindness of others. Didn’t think it could get much better until I checked in an hour ago to see how Justin’s book was doing on Amazon. The day has peaked. I’m turning in x

Tom Robbins, comic novelist of US counterculture, dies aged 92 Author of books including Even Cowgirls Get the Blues and Another Roadside Attraction, was known for his outlandish tales of sex, drugs and mysticism

Sad to hear of the passing of Tom Robbins. Safe travels in the great beyond, big guy.

“What I try to do, among other things, is to mix fantasy and spirituality, sexuality, humor and poetry in combinations that have never quite been seen before in literature.”

‘1984: The Year Pop Went Queer’ and ‘Street Level Superstar’ both feature in the Guardian’s Five Music Books of 2024. Huge love and congrats to @wadeywade.bsky.social and @willhodgkinson.bsky.social

With additional love and respect to Alexis Petridis who was a great friend to Nine Eight Books

The best part of this 'orcas wearing dead salmon as hats' story is the quote from the orca scientist "honestly, your guess is as good as mine"

Me too!

Poor foot - sounds bloomin' painful but good to hear getting bit better.

Lovely piece by @pamhutch.bsky.social you might enjoy too - bsky.app/profile/pamh...

Hope your foot is fully mended now. If still in need of cheering stuff did anyone recommend Jury Duty? On Amazon Prime.

where is S3??!!!

Going in - this sounds great!

More Books of the Year goodness for Will&Lawrence and @mrsimonraymonde.bsky.social from the mighty Resident in Brighton. And the spoils from never being able to leave a record shop empty handed.
A huge thank you to James, Georgia, Jon, Nat and everyone at the shop for their love and support

Perfect

Will have to read it again now too. Denholm Elliott has gently terrified me.

Screen Two - Series 8: 8. Hotel Du Lac Romantic novelist Edith Hope so horrifies her friends that they banish her to the solitude of a Swiss hotel. She decides to work out her exile by observing her fellow guests.

A conversation I had elsewhere reminded me that this excellent adaptation of Anita Brookner's novel HOTEL DU LAC is on the iPlayer. #BookSky

Anna Massey is *perfect* as Edith, and other cast members (e.g. Googie Withers, Patricia Hodge, Denholm Eliot) are superb too!
