📖 #OTD in the #History of #Literature 16 October 2012, #HilaryMantel won the #BookerPrize for BRING UP THE BODIES, the sequel to WOLF HALL. Mantel became the first woman and the first British author to win the prize twice. It is also the first sequel to ever win the award.
I found a copy! I’d been searching and searching and searching. #bookerprize
Impressive but VERY bleak. 😭 #bookerprize
👀👉🏼great fun on my books programme #LiteratureLive tonight on @resonancefm.bsky.social with two superb guests this time @judecook.bsky.social and #bookerprize shortlisted(!) @lukekennard.bsky.social — show repeats 10am Tues 13 October — don’t miss!
I'm reading and reviewing the 6 shortlisted Booker Prize novels. Here’s my lil look at 3/6: May We Feed the King. It's a puzzling and poetic novel that asks: how do we know anything about history?
I adore this part of the Booker Prize shortlist when they launch the short films of the books.

I’m sorry to Booker, but THE END OF EVERYTHING should have been shit listed not short listed.
#bookerprize I am working my way through the shortlist. I won't make it through by the time the prize is announced, but I crave writing at this level and the Booker is a place to find it.
#JohnofJohn I didn't like it as much as other people seem to. The plot revolved (annoyingly) on people just […]

May We Feed The King by Rachel Perry.
An exceptionally brave and confident debut novel. A properly literary book which is also easy to read and totally accessible. Genuinely hooked me throughout and I had to force myself not to read it all in one sitting. #booksky #bookrecommendations #bookerprize
I have just finished reading the 2020 novel The Discomfort of Evening, written by Lucas Rijneveld. #Books #Literature #BookerPrize #GillerPrize
I’m reading and reviewing the 6 novels shortlisted for the Booker Prize this year.
Here is 2/6: The Things We Never Say, a moving character drama by Elizabeth Strout.
Oh my heart. ❤️ (I’m easily touched though).

I read 163 novels and these are the six best: Mary Beard on judging the Booker Prize
Anyone else read / reading The End of Everything?

Author @lizstrout.bsky.social will be discussing her 2026 Booker Prize nominated novel, "The Things We Never Say" (published @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social) at the National Arts Club tonight at 6:30pm.
Copies will be available to purchase at the event this evening.
"The Things We Never Say" by Elizabeth Strout, shortlisted for #BookerPrize
It puts into words the inner turmoil I've been feeling, discussing mental health & living in today's unstable environment. I also thought of how it would piss off some. #BookSky #Books
