NEW GRAPHIC NOVELS!!!
🌈
PILES AND PILES of delicious NEW BOOKS are now on the shelves! Why not pop in and have a browse…!?

Random Ramble warning…

A rather dapper older gentleman (epic hipster-style beard, chocolate brown felt trilby - you get the picture) sitting astride a mobility scooter has just zipped by the shop with his lovely lady friend (emerald green cardi, shimmering silver hair - the devil is in the detail my friends) zipping along behind him. They were dutifully admiring our window when the dapper gentleman drew breath and mused aloud (presumably to his lovely lady or perhaps he is by nature a vocal muser whether in company or alone, I cannot be sure), “I just don’t know how these little shops survive…”
And it took, dear reader, all my will power not to shout out “Nor do I Sir, nor do I!!!”
But I didn’t.
As I am by nature a shy, retiring kind of lady-bookshop-owner. Plus I was humming along to George Ezra at the time, and had a mouthful of raspberries.
But seriously, what is a bookseller to do? We’ve had only one (utterly charming) customer today, and two (equally charming and most amusing) customers yesterday. In my heart I know our little book haven is loved, and we have so many fiercely loyal customers and friends. But on days like today I do find myself wondering how much longer we can keep this little bookshop dream afloat…
🌈
*sigh* I always get the mean reds when I read Breakfast at Tiffany’s - will I ever learn…?

NAME THAT SLOTH…!
🦥
Some of you might remember that ages and ages and ages ago we asked you for suggestion for naming our newly acquired Seasonal Sloth!
🦥
You guys made loads of brilliant suggestions - thank you to everyone who took part - and we have finally made a decision…
🦥
DRUM ROLL PLEASE…
🦥
INTRODUCING…Beatrice (Bea) Sydney Sid Bowie Max Gerald Aussie Ozzie George Mathilda Katie Sammie Sam Slopper Sheila Bacca Alan Betty Stanley Gorgeous Gordon Ginormous Seasonal Sloth - a sloth of many many names, but his friends all call him SPEEDY!!!
🦥
Thank you to everyone for your help in giving our sloth such a long and distinguished set of names - and thank you to Stella for coming up with ‘Speedy’, we think it suits him perfectly!

Speedy the Seasonal Sloth has now settled very comfortably into our front window 💜 All suggestions on seasonal outfits are very welcome as Speedy does love a bit of dressing up!
