Sending my regards to any fellow Booksellers contemplating their engineering skills after spending an embarrassingly long time putting our World Book Day stand together πŸ˜‚ If only it took 15 seconds! #worldbookday2025

To be able to speak about bookshops and making a mark on our communities was a privilege, and Hillsborough is booming thanks to such a fab selection of indies reflecting the locals within it πŸ‘πŸΌ

I will always bang the drum about the power of spaces that offer more than a physical item for the community ❀️

Every Bookseller right now, trying not to be buried alive by an insane amount of cardboard whilst simultaneously bringing a ridiculous amount of festive cheer πŸŽ„βœ¨οΈ

"The power of stories will never get old, and being able to be a place that brings those stories to life and into the hands of the people in my community is pure magic."

Full colour, always 🌈

Nothing black, just a curated selection of colourful stories I think my community will love. (And you get me: your own personal shopper who knows exactly which book that annoying uncle will enjoy!)

Open 6 days in December, and I'd love to see you ❀️ πŸ“š

With reading for pleasure at its lowest, and writing for pleasure feeling like a chore for lots of children in school, it was brilliant fun to launch our Junior Writing Competition- and the entries have been full of joy, imagination and creativity ✏️ Writing workshops launching soon and I can't wait!

If you're Sheffield based and after a sneaky peek of the @tramlines.bsky.social 2025 line up, then pop into the shop tomorrow and shop local - we've got a saucy treat for you if you do! Open 10-5pm πŸ‘€

Shop small and local. Singing it loud always, but especially this week when the world turns black for a weekend. There's always colour here, 365 days a year. We have sales too, but we can also handpick the perfect book and show you something you'd never have chosen that has you swooning πŸ“š #booksky
