Five years ago today the boy @danielfridd and I did the official bit and had wedding number 1 of 2! You know us - Why have one party when you can have two? Its been a rollercoaster and an adventure and I wouldn't change a single moment. The keeper of my battered heart. The reason for it all. The Dragon to my Bookbug. Thank you 📖🐛🐉❤

What a lovely way to kick off a Saturday - reading stories under Dippy's tail @norwich_cathedral for #dippyontour 🦕 The children were AMAZING and roared their loudest roars! I had 10 minutes on my own with Dippy and it was truly awe inspiring. Can't wait to roar and read again 📖🐛🐉❤

HUGE delivery today after none for 2 days! If you are waiting for an order to be delivered, I suspect it will be in these boxes and will be on it's way to you this evening ❤ Sally is busily booking these in while I have the morning off. Was so looking forward to a lay in but my ridiculous dog thought that 6am was late enough! 📖🐛🐉❤

What do you do when you find yourself with a ton of packing paper and a new window about to go up? Create a #diplodocus of course! It's nearly impossible to write a bookseller job description - jack of all trades, master of none 😂📖🐛🐉❤

Making a start on our dinosaur windows 🦖 We have BIG plans to turn it into a Jurassic Jungle! Don't fret, Pride fans, we will be making sure that the dinosaurs let their Pride flags fly on 31st July 🏳️‍🌈. Looking forward to emails telling me I'm a disgrace for encouraging dinosaurs to be members of the LGBTQI+ community 🏳️‍🌈🦖📖🐛🐉❤

What a lovely surprise to get into the shop this morning and find this @gogodiscover21 dinosaur so close! AND its covered in dragonflies😊 - what you may or may not know is that the name of the shop comes from a story called Waterbugs and Dragonflies so this feels like a sign from the people whose memories live on through our little book haven 📖🐛🐉❤

So proud of the littlest Bookshop Babies Lily and Grace for taking their turn in the press! Unlike me and Dan, they are not enormous show offs who love attention, and despite being out of their comfort zone did an awesome job of talking about our #booktok to @eastern_daily_press. Read the article here https://www.edp24.co.uk/news/booktok-in-norwich-bookshops-8131360 📖🐛🐉❤

I love our Pride window and what I love about it m

I love our Pride window and what I love about it most is what it means. It means all are welcome. It means that there are books for young people which represent them. It means kindness and compassion. It means that people can feel free to be true to themselves.
So, to the man who quoted scripture at me and said I was 'promoting homosexuality', I say this. As the step mother of a gay daughter, we didn't read her books about being gay (there weren't any when she was small), she didn't wake up one morning and decide she didn't like boys, she didn't choose a life where, even now, holding her fiancee's hand in the street, draws attention. It's simply who she is. And we love her. And we will continue to be an ally to her and to others for always.
I did say all of this to the man and his wife (but a lot less eloquently).
The purpose of this post is just to say, we all have a duty to protect freedom, promote inclusivity and diversity and be a nice human. None of us are getting out of this alive, so live and let live. And buy books. About LGBTQI+ people. By LGBTQI+ people. They are unlikely to change your sexuality but they might change your mind 🏳️‍🌈📖🐛🐉❤

I do love a coincidental link between novels. Last book read was historical fiction Hamnet. Currently reading dystopian futuristic Station Eleven. Could not be more different but intrinsically linked. Reading during a pandemic creates the triangle #Shakespeare #Pandemic
