Piling in on this fest bc this book is SO BEYOND BRILLIANT. I cried, I laughed, I read it in total awe of this author's talents
Bit of a love-fest in @thebookseller for Meg Mason’s #SorrowAndBliss:
- Editor’s Choice last week (‘Simply brilliant... A must read’)
- Great in-depth interview with Meg today (‘Extraordinary: fiercely funny, acerbic, sharp and quietly devastating’)
Thank you @aliceokbooks!
Look I know it's book fair season and I absolutely don't have time to read it atm, but who do I have to speak to around here to get my hands on a copy of Rachel Kushner's essay collection?! And who wants to join a Kushner-specific book club with me to dissect it at length?

RIYL: drinking pale rosé on sun-drenched terraces/ arguing with boomer dads/ crumbling milky feta into salads with your bare hands/ chatting with the clientele of Bar Italia (who doesn't enjoy all of these things?!) @FrancescaReece & @amyperky have your summer reading covered 😎
We're very excited to introduce @FrancescaReece's 'unsettling, addictive and razor-sharp' debut novel VOYEUR. Now available to pre-order from @bookshop_org_UK. smarturl.it/VoyeurBook
Won't somebody, plz, think of the scouts 🙆♀️🕵️♀️👀 lol
Concern of "submission fatigue" as editors deal with an onslaught of submissions, due to cancelled book fairs, and new dates for this year. Find out more here: bit.ly/3spv0vL (£)
While I'm here (infrequent tweeter that I am) adding to the Memorial love since it published in the UK last week. This was a true favourite read last year: a beautiful novel about formative relationships, evasive father’s + their damaged sons, loving, leaving, healing & grieving.
sending the stunning UK edition of @brywashing's MEMORIAL to press 🛋️🛋️🛋️
hit up James Roxburgh @theotherkirsty @JamieDForrest @sofeeeee or me for copies
