Description

'A bookworm's delight' Sara Collins'Funny, warm and charming' Marian Keyes'Like butter on toast: perfect' Caitlin MoranA love letter to all those who come alive when they pull a new treasure off the shelf, stay up late reading just one more page and pack their suitcases with clothes wedged between books instead of the other way around.From well-worn literary classics to steamy bonkbusters, gripping thrillers, young adult novels and other not-so-guilty pleasures Bookish brims with literary insights, wry observations and stellar recommendations. This is an ode to the bookish places - from local libraries to bookshops big and small - and the stories that make us who we are.'Comforting, funny and moving - Bookish is wonderful to curl up with on good days and bad' Sali Hughes 'An affectionate, warm guide on the healing power of reading' i News'Mangan makes for a wonderfully incisive critic and can pick apart a George Orwell with the same perspicacity with which she can, say, a Jack Reacher' ObserverREADER'S LOVE BOOKISH'A perfect read for all of us under the spellbinding influence of books!''I found myself laughing at her wit and nodding in agreement at the books she loves''Perfect book for bookworms and you'll feel as if you've found your tribe.''This is a book which will fill every bookworm's heart with joy!''A perfect read for all of us under the spellbinding influence of books!''Would again make a perfect gift for any bookish bookworm''If you love books - and I mean really, really, love them, you should buy this book.''I have never felt more seen.'
