Whoop! Won a free book, notebook and tote bag at my local @dublincitylibs.bsky.social library for #IrelandReads day! Appropriately, this book is about reading! ‘Cloud Cuckoo Land’ by Anthony Doerr. #MyDublinLibrary @jackielynam.bsky.social

It's #IrelandReads day tomorrow! Lovely to be an ambassador for it again this year, check out www.irelandreads.ie to see what it's all about, and tomorrow's @independent.ie column has some suggestions for the person in your life who wants to read a bit more. One or two of them a smidge radical...

‘Hacks’ Season 3 is just as good as Season 1 & 2! A TV comedy about TV comedy writers. Can’t think of another show about intergenerational female friendship. (Not family.) Thanks @elaineburke.bsky.social for the tip-off! Streaming on NowTV now.

Also, if anyone has preordered this with us, I will pick a name randomly off the list & you will receive your copy for free - preorders help us logistically to plan, but they really help & support the writers - this is something we will be doing more of.

It’s Valentine’s Day and I’m feeling under the weather, so what better to read than a funny book about a breakup? Really enjoying this so far! ‘Good Material’ by Dolly Alderton, borrowed from my local library. #booksky

Today I have emailed a woman called Anne and a woman called Zoe, and I really feel like I should earn some kind of certificate for having completed the internet or something.
