Given the growing number of reviewers and discussions we have on the site, we’ve decided to run a reading group.

As this will be our first book, we thought that a debut author would be appropriate, and so we have chosen Poppy Adams’ The Behaviour of Moths

For a full synopsis and to view Poppy’s video see

Poppy has been likened to both Ian McEwan and Julie Myerson, and the book was recently selected for the BBC’s Book At Bedtime.

It has been described as:

‘ an intricately crafted story, told with just the right balance of claustrophobia and compassion ‘ - Psychologies

‘ this is a dark book … a brilliantly paced debut ‘ - The Daily Mail

We are proposing that we discuss the book on the site from Monday 23rd June. This will run for up to two weeks, depending on how long people want to carry on the discussions for.

This should give those of you interested enough time to finish what you are currently reading, and to order a copy of The Behaviour of Moths

Don’t worry, you don’t need to be on the site at any particular time - you can just dip in and out of the discussion as and when you want to.

It would be great for us to gauge the interest in the idea, and to know what you think of our choice of book - so please let us know.

P.S - We also have some Signed First Editions of this title available

Here goes. I’ve been given the chance to take on the best people I can find, make a bug list of all the things that ‘bugged me’ about the book industry and then attempt to solve them with a new site.

This started in September and we’re powering towards publishing the site on the 19th March, at least to the trade in a closed beta.

The site is in effect a result of my and the team’s collective experience, which covers pretty much every chain, and some independent, booksellers in the country.

We’re now four weeks off launch.
