Bookseller Laura thinks you should all read Fruit Fly this pride month!šŸ³ļøā€šŸŒˆ
"Go Gay Go Sad Go Dark"
Literary sensation Mallory Maddox is chasing inspiration for her next bestseller after 7 years of writer’s block and what better inspiration than a gay drug addict in his twenties??? Fruit Fly was camp, funny, sad and dark all at the same time with two incredible main characters that I loved so much. The plot was handled so well, it kept me entertained and wanting more. Please please please read this book - you will not regret it!šŸ“šā£ļø

Join bookseller Brooke in conversation with Jess Bacon on Monday 15th June to discuss 'I'm Just a Girl: how reclaiming girlhood can redefine womanhood.' Here's what Brooke has to say on the book:
'An accessible examination of the paradoxical nature of girlhood and the challenges facing modern women, reading it felt like receiving thoughtful advice from a big sister! I’m really looking forward to chairing this event - certainly one for the girlies.'
