Congratulations to "Operation Mincemeat" for their Tony nomination for "Best New Musical". We saw it in London in 2023 and were absolutely blown away! If you are in London or NYC, do NOT miss this show. #Broadway #theater @mincemeatbway.bsky.social @mincemeatlive.bsky.social operationbroadway.com

If you order through @portersqbooks.bsky.social or @silverunicornbooks.bsky.social, I can even personalize and sign copies for you! How neat is that? As for reviews, I don't have a great solution. Oh! Tell people you know you like the book! And encourage them to get a copy from an indie store! Yes.

This is the only bookstore I was able to get to in Stockholm, due to illness and weather! It's not an indie but it does have a great selection. The Akademibokandeln in Fältöversten mall.

Scandinavian Travel Reads: "Madly, Deeply: The Diairies of Alan Rickman": Splendid. Witty. Brutally honest. Heartbreaking. Great travel companion. "Lost Voices from the Titanic: The Definitive Oral History" by Nick Barratt. Uncovers new voices and stories from the time. Please buy from an indie!
