Independent bookshop based in Brooklands, Sale, Greater Manchester.

Hello lovely people of Bluesky! My name's Michelle and I'm the owner of B For Butterfly Books, a small independent bookshop based in Sale, Greater Manchester. I'm hoping this will be my 'forever-social-media-home' after lots of channel-hopping 😁
A very happy BLACK BOOKS FRIDAY to all who celebrate. Pop in for general drunkenness, some swearing and the occasional throwing of books
This may be a joke, but no more so than throwing money at guys who send themselves into space.
Thank you to our friends at The Bookhouse for the inspiration. 😁

Also picked up the signed indie bookshop edition of @vaseemkhanuk.bsky.social's fabulous Quantum of Menace from @bforbutterflybooks.bsky.social . Q is out of MI6, but has his own mystery to solve. A must for any #JamesBond fan!

Great event last week with @adamjfarrer.bsky.social @robparkerauthor.bsky.social & Chris McDonald
Here’s one. @bforbutterflybooks.bsky.social is a perfect little bookshop shop right near Brooklands tram stop in Sale. It also, and I cannot stress this enough, smells great.
