Fantastic to see this great THESE SHATTERED SPIRES backdrop at the @bloomsburybooksuk.bsky.social stand at #YALC this past weekend!

@cesalter.com’s novel is due out in March 2026!

A photo of two tote bags, one pink with the logo of ‘the locked library’ and one black with ‘30 years of voyager’. In-between the bags are eight books - Sky in the Deep, Moon Stone, The Last Tiger, Summer Wars, The River Drags her Down, The Book That Wouldn’t Burn, Morgan is my Name and To Steal a Throne. There are also four bookmarks and a number of stickers scattered between the books.

So here’s the final haul from #Yalc. I managed to restrain myself to just 8 (😅) incredible looking books, so expect to see them cropping up in the #bookjourney from now on (though I will try to mix it up with some tougher genres / non-fiction) #BookHaul #BookWorm

Immense fun playing Werewolf, led by @ajclack.bsky.social at #YALC, even if I was wrongfully accused of being a werewolf! It all got very Celeb Traitors by the end.

Guess who won a free proof! (It’s not the book in the pic, I just needed somewhere to balance my victory rock) #YALC #Books #BlueskyBooks #BookWorm

Coming February 2026, The Boy From Elsewhere by @kestr.al is a book filled with queer joy, Strong role models, and a gripping story that transcends reality itself.

You can find Kestral this weekend at #YALC #YALCuk to find out more!

If anyone else is at YALC this weekend, you might see me having an internal battle with myself as I fight the urge—need, it’s a need!—to buy new books. 📚

It’s #Yalc day so I apologize I’m advance for how obnoxious I’m presumably about to become.

Home after setting up ready for #LondonComicConWinter this weekend! Extra excited for this as will be seeing lots of lovely people and writer friends who will be there for #YALC 🥳

If you’re attending, please come say hi, and check out my #books. I’ve got some bundle offers happening this time 😁

As if #YALC wasn’t about to put enough strain on my bank account (and my bookcases) one of my coworkers just figured out how we access the 50% staff discount on books @ work. My life is about to become so rich (in books) and so poor (in the money I need to live) #Booksky #LifeOfABookworm

Is anyone else counting down the days til #YALC because it is less than a week now and I am buzzing! (The no new books oath will be suspended day of for all the beautiful, beautiful fantasy I expect to find there)

So, confession, I’m a little embarrassed by how long it took to get to #JackOfThorns. I met the author at #Yalc a couple of years ago and they were really nice, we had a good chat and they were kind enough to sign my copy. I went home super stoked to read it….

Well, #BookSky, this was excellent! One of my #YALC purchases last year, because everyone was raving about it – and they were right. Think 'Shaun of the Dead' with mutant animals instead of zombies, laugh-out-loud writing, and a F/F end-of-the-world romance. Five shiny stars from me! 😀

My free spoils from a brilliant #YALC rather belatedly. With thanks to Usborne and @bloomsburybooks.bsky.social! I'm particularly excited about #NeedyLittleThings.

It's my #YALC book pile! I wasn't joking about taking a wheelie case to carry my #books, and this one was the perfect size! 16 books in the photo, plus two more bought as gifts (shhhhh!). I think I did OK! 😊

My #TBR pile is officially a skyscraper, but look at all my lovely new reading choices!📚

This weekend marked my first #YALC as a published author. I had the best time on the 10 Years of YALC panel, and hosting a full friendship bracelet making workshop! Thank you to everyone who came to get a book signed too, and brought me Eras themed gifts and more bracelets! Adore you! 💜🐍

It’s the day after #LondonComicConWinter and #YALC. I travelled away to a writing retreat last night (so needed a morning to catch up on myself) but a big thank you to the amazing book community and readers, writing friends etc. It was fab to see so many of you over the weekend! I am so grateful.
