Thank you so much to everybody who came to the event we had with Jacky Colliss Harvey for her book, Thoughtlands!

This is a wonderful collection of Suffolk walks and local history, landscape and literary links, all beautifully observed and fascinating in the telling!

We're so glad the event went well and everyone who attended got to meet the author behind the book, as well as Hans, the dog who went with her.

All of those in attendance had their books signed, but if you missed out, you still have a chance to grab signed copies!

Book of the Month Spotlight ✨

The English House by Dan Cruickshank 📕

A great piece on social history, based around the places we've all lived.

It is eminently readable and informative. Both an architectural history and social history, with fascinating anecdotes about the people who lived in the houses, and the architects who designed them.

Showing how English homes have evolved and changed over several hundred years. Cruickshank is, as ever, brilliantly researched and a great storyteller. Thoroughly enjoyable.

For fans of Annie Gray, Lucy Worsley, John O'Farrell, Neil Oliver, John Elledge.

Book of the Month Spotlight ✨

Best of all Worlds by Kenneth Oppel

Reminiscent of Michael Grant (Gone series), Maze Runner, and Pittacus Lore's I Am Number Four series, it is a thriller with both sci-fi and political themes, with threat and survival elements. There are phones, technology, discussions about climate change, 90s TV vibes, it leans more teen than other YA books.

Family and relationships is a big part of the novel, leaning into more of an older's teens book. There is an element of 'what would you do?' when stuck inside a finite enclosed space with another family. Blending the personal and the political, this book reads like a teenage thriller.

Explores the neurological effect that nature has on our mood, delivered in an easily digestible framework. This book is divided into different sections dependent on mood and gives you advice on where to go to feel reconnected.

It is one that can easily be dipped in and out of, the format really lending itself to people short on time, but also those who are wanting to step away from technology and spend more time in their surroundings, especially nature.
