This one is for the writers. I need a new laptop. Any advice would be greatly appreciated because I haven't bought a laptop in six years. Many thanks.

Delivered some bookish cupcakes to @waterstonesashford today and was given a lovely tour of the new bookshop. I'll post a video of the shop over the weekend once the locals have had a chance to visit. Well done to Alfie and the Ashford team. You've done an amazing job. The shop looks beautiful! 📚✨️

I agree. A lot of parents tell their kids what to read. This never works. As a bookseller and a mother of three, I suggest showing kids every type of book and then allowing them to CHOOSE. Works like a charm. 😊

When you ask people about the books that changed their lives, they almost always mention a children's book. They're the books that make us readers, shape us at the deepest levels, and stay with us FOREVER. That's why I think children's books are the most important books of all! #kidlit #books

When you're trying to work but the cat is making this face at something behind the bookcase that you can't see! 👀👻

I've been at Canterbury Waterstones for a year (five years as a bookseller and three years running events) and what a year it has been! Transferring to a bigger bookshop was a little bit scary but it was the best decision. Thank you to all the authors who came to visit. You are awesome! 🎉

For the Canterbury Waterstones advent calendar, I chose two books that I adored and that I know customers won't have heard of. The gorgeously gothic Welcome to Dead Town Raven Mckay 👻 by @eibhliscarcione.bsky.social and the wonderfully weird Walking Practise 👽 by @dolkimin @EveryWithWords

Day out at the Tenterden Christmas Market. It was lovely to see my nan (even if I did almost tip her out of her wheelchair, which made her laugh) and my aunt, uncle, and cousins. The Christmas season has officially begun! 🎄🎁🎅
