It's still very quiet here at Fox Lane, and costs are far exceeding sales. Not a very good situation to be in, is it?
So, if you've been meaning to treat yourself to a new book, we'd really appreciate your support.
And don't forget, we also offer gift wrapping and book gift packages, perfect for birthdays, thank you gifts, or just because.
Every order helps a small independent bookshop

Can anyone recommend super comfy sandals with no toe posts? I love my DM sandals but not comfy enough for a full long day out (not for me anyway)…

RENT tickets booked with Gaten Matarazzo in the West End in December. All I need now is Djo to announce a UK tour and I will be both poor and happy.

A thriller that will stay with me for a long time, @JMSimpsonauthor new stand alone Mine To Keep is gripping, well paced and emotionally charged. Not to be missed! Thanks to @PublishingDavis for my early digital copy for review.

Next up, a crime review! Gillian McAllister @gillianmauthor is BACK with another brilliant read, one that had my heart in my throat and making me wonder the lengths I would go to, to protect my own child.
