Oklahoma! Our @BackstoryLdn books magazine went on sale in @BNbuzz across USA this week. Wild to see copies have already sold in branches from Tulsa (OK) to San Antonio (TX) & of course New York (NY). Very exciting!

Fabulous debut novel. I bought it after @tomjrowley & @BackstoryLdn raved about it. And as they had recommended my favourite novel of 2023 – Alice Winn’s ‘In Memoriam’ – I thought I’d give it a go.
It turns out they have impeccable taste…

I haven’t been able to put down this gorgeous books mag from @BackstoryLdn all evening. Among other things, it has taught me a lot about BookTok. Congratulations @tomjrowley
