Sean’s choice for 23rd December is the perfect gift for fellow David Bowie fans - ‘Ricochet’ by Denis O’Regan. It’s a breathtaking, never-seen-before portrait of life on the Serious Moonlight tour in 1983 with the late singer by the official tour photographer. Stunning! 📚🎄🎼

Late to the party but so thrilled that The Boy in the Water won the William Hill. This book made me cry in public more times than I'd care to admit. Nostalgic in all the best ways, a bit Billy Elliott, a bit Nick Hornby... Congrats to @tomgregory11 @ParticularBooks
