    I’m in a dither since both you and Louise posted at the same time today. It’s all too much excitement for me. I shall retire now to my fainting chaise.😆

    I would really recommend checking out Caper when you are in Oxford, they are a relatively new independant bookshop and I just love it in there. It's a little out of the city centre on Magdalen Rd just off Iffley road. Gutted I can't make the event tomorrow at Daunt as it sounds super interesting!

    Amazingly although I make a point to visit several bookshops whenever I am in London I have never been to any of those three (however I have read Monica Ali’s novel). What fun! And what a great haul. One day I must get to the West Kirby Book Shop!

    I like the sound of But the Girl (hope that’s the right title 😬)
    As you mentioned Anne Enright, I have to say - wasn’t she a fabulous presence at the WP ‘live shortlisted readings’ event? I’ve got a copy of The Gathering which I want to get to soon (stupidly 🙄 I forgot to take it with me to the above mentioned event to get AE’s signature); plus I’ve Megan Nolan’s Ordinary Human Failings on library loan to read AND (!!) I want to read another by Claire Kilroy ☺️📚

    • @SavidgeReads
      @SavidgeReads  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Anne's introduction to the book, reading from it and interview were fabulous at the shortlist event, she was hilarious. I will not be reading anymore Claire Kilroy, what she said about single parents and same sex parents at the shortlist readings were awful, Mum and I were fuming. I had the pleasure of meeting Megan Nolan last week at the Encore Awards and she was wonderful!

    @susprime7018 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Thanks, that was fun, sadly, no independent bookshops near me, only chain bookstores. There is an antique shop that has some old books, maybe I'll venture there, they had a lesser known Forester there from the thirties, but rough shape, so I did not buy it and it was a first American, so not the one a future collector would want. My husband is reading The Fourth Part of the World by Toby Lester, which I read several years ago and bought the hardback because the cover and jacket is so beautiful. I told him to be careful, as I will be keeping it. He gets a warning because he dropped one of my books while reading in the tub years ago.😂

    • @SavidgeReads
      @SavidgeReads  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      You know if there isn’t an indie near you… I would say why not start one 😉 That’s a dream of mine one day. I only read proofs or paperbacks in the bath. I’ve learnt my lessons. Lol.

      ​@SavidgeReads Too old for that, I'm enjoying John Dunning's Bookman's Promise, the last Cliff Janeway novel, about buying a Burton collection, amongst other things. I wish I had been able to visit their shop when they had one, may he rest in peace. Plus, I can't spell, Forster, I must have been thinking about Sean Connery's Forester movie. I'll go to the antique shop and do some scouting in Dunning's memory.
