If you visited the cafe at bookish recently and e’d really appreciate your reviews on Google! It’s been a bumpy ride these past 12 months as hospitality is HARD, but Mr Bookish has been cooking up a storm this month!

Last night I had a dream that we had a sell out event with Ben Fogle but on the night another writer/mathematician also called Ben Fogle turned up….chaos ensued. I have a cold, I blame the Lemsip.

Today from 10am I am driving the till in our Abergavenny shop. Small but perfectly formed 55a Frogmore Street has, in my opinion, the BEST book smell in the world.

Just a reminder that the books we call "children's books" are really books written for an audience that includes children, but excludes absolutely no-one at all. They are BOOKS FOR EVERYONE - and you can never, ever be too old to read them, and to love them!

You can still get Bloomsbury books from us or by supporting your local bookshop via Bookshop.org. If more publishers took this stance against greedy Jeff, I wonder what effect it would have on High Streets?! www.thebookseller.com/news/amazon-...
