"I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing." ~ Agatha Christie Summer (1911) 🎨 Nikolay Bogdanov-Belsky
Such a joy to be there!
What a complete JOY of an evening! 💜🩷 #MrBs in Bath is a magical shop - and its staff (especially Katrina, Becky and Rohan) are the loveliest of people. Thank you to everyone who came (including @HazelPriorBooks and @StonexEmma!). This was one to cherish xx #TheNightInQuestion

Out July 31st - The Book of Lost Stories is based on one of my early and very hard to get hold of novels, Lord Rayven's Revenge, with a lot of new material...and I hope you will love the Regency Gothic at it's heart.
Absolutely wonderful to meet one of my top favourite authors @sfletcherauthor yesterday and hear her talk about the gorgeous #TheNightInQuestion @mrbsemporium last night. #BookTwitter
