Word of the day: "nefelibata" –– literally a "cloud-walker"; that is, a daydreamer, one who wanders lost in thought or wonder (Portuguese; poetic. From the Ancient Greek νεφελοβάτης, nephelobátēs, "one who walks the clouds"). Also–– esp. in art or literature––a rule-breaker.

Sad days at Book Island are when the Daily Sales Report arrives and EVERY SINGLE SALE has gone through the biggest online giant. If you can help stop this trend, please do. I can't let them destroy my company and the indie bookshops. #buyfromyourindie #buydirect

The lovely people at Fifth Frame Films made this for us. We are still here, still doing what we love - getting books out, spreading a love of reading, and drinking tea with a side of biscuits. #supportlocal #shoplocal #choosebookshops #UnitedByBooks #stayhomeandread

A tale of displacement & the meaning of home. #ahomethatmeanstheworld by Victoria Turnbull is a carefully crafted story of the Weavers who are forced to leave their house in search of a new home. They encounter adversity but also great kindness. A hopeful read to be shared far & wide

Let's bring LOVE with us into 2025. The brilliant Joseph Coelho has poured his heart into his second Ten-Word Tiny Tales book. It is a masterpiece filled with twenty tales of love in its many forms, each illustrated by a different artist, and a cover by Jarvis. What a gift ♥️
