Had the BEST evening out at last night to see LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS. Fantastic staging and performances. Was incredibly restrained & managed not to sing all the way through, but treated Jon and Sam to a lovely rendition in the car instead 🤣 Last performance is 29/11 🎶

Are you a young reader? It's Banned Books Week. Seek out a banned book. Find out what they're afraid of you knowing. Reading is revolutionary. Don't let anyone take it from you.

Happy International Coffee Day! A while ago we replaced our coffee machine for something a little smaller and more suited to the bookshop. You can still browse with an americano, cappuccino, latte or good old-fashioned cup of tea. Perfect for cosy autumn browsing 🍂☕

Broken Biscuits was an August bestseller at @bforbutterflybooks.bsky.social in Sale, which is heartwarming to hear about a book that’s been out for 18 months, is a testament to the power of indie book shops and also a relief because I’ve just put a £499 vets bill on my credit card. #booksky

Anyone else stay up late to watch Artemis II launch last night? If you fancy immersing yourself in an epic novel set against the backdrop of the 1980s space shuttle program you definitely need to grab a copy of ATMOSPHERE. Available in paperback from 9th April. @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social

A very happy BLACK BOOKS FRIDAY to all who celebrate. Pop in for general drunkenness, some swearing and the occasional throwing of books This may be a joke, but no more so than throwing money at guys who send themselves into space. Thank you to our friends at The Bookhouse for the inspiration. 😁
