I have MORE #buyastrangerabook day action!

Bike fans!

@mrstevious.bsky.social is offering to buy someone a copy of Potholes and Pavements : A Bumpy Ride on Britain’s National Cycle Network by Laura Laker.

It looks ace.

If you'd like a copy, just get in touch.

UK only
Front cover of the book. Blurb for the book. A unique journey around the UK’s National Cycle Network and one journalist’s quest to investigate the state of our country’s cycling. What if we were less reliant on our cars? What if there were safe cycling paths to take us places instead? What if those paths led to the next town, the next village and the countryside beyond?This was the dream of a group of Bristolian idealists in the 1970s when they founded Britain’s National Cycle Network, which now runs to nearly 13,000 miles across the country. Journalist Laura Laker sets off on an odyssey around the UK to see where the NCN began, and where it is now. What has gone right – and wrong – with this piece of national infrastructure? Why is it run by a charity whose CEO once admitted ‘we’ve had enough of it being crap, we need to fix it’? Laura lifts the lid on this maddening, patchy, and at times dangerous network, and the similarly precarious politics and financing that make it what it is. She discovers beauty, friendship and adventure along the way, from the Cairngorms to Cornwall, from the Pennines to the South Wales coast. On her mission to pin down what the NCN is and what it means to those who use it, she also meets up with high-profile travelling companions, including Chris Boardman and Ned Boulting. In a country where 71% of trips are less than five miles, two thirds of Britons say they want to cycle more and doing so could help our climate, health and wellbeing. Laura is on a mission to see if we can make that dream a reality.

Here's another AMAZING #buyastrangerabook day offer.

@spacedlaw.bsky.social is offering to buy FIVE lucky people a copy each of Justin Myers new novel The Glorious Dead.

Check out the blurb, and let us know if you'd like a FREE copy!

UK only.
Front cover of The Glorious Dead by Justin Myers. Blurb for Justin's book. Laurie Blount, enfant terrible of the West End, the voice of a generation, a shining star. Also: dead. Very, very dead. Killed in a car crash in the middle of the night, Laurie exited this world the way he lived his life - dramatically and dangerously. Laurie 's husband Jo, best friend Vivi and goddaughter Rosy must step out from grief 's shadow and face life without him. Until rumours of Laurie 's unpublished memoir begin to haunt the group. Waspish, wicked and witty, these confessions reveal a side to Laurie nobody really knew . . . or would admit to knowing. But can the words of a dead man be trusted? Laurie 's grieving loved ones are about to discover that comedy and tragedy are the same mistakes, made under different lighting. If Jo, Vivi and Rosy are ever to find peace in the future, they might need to lift the curtain on Laurie 's past - as well as their own. Can a dead man shatter your life one chapter at a time?'

I have a #buyastrangerabook day offer to tell you about.

@humanaqvi.bsky.social will buy one lucky person a copy of Chris McCausland's new memoir, "Keep Laughing".

(blurb in 2nd pic).

If you've not benefitted from #buyastrangerabook before & would like it, get in touch!

UK only.
Front cover of Chris's book. Blurb for the book. The perfect feel-good gift for fans of comedy and Strictly alike. 'Oh my God, so funny, so nostalgic.I loved it!’ ALAN CARR Already one of the country's best loved comedians, Chris McCausland's participation on Strictly was a phenomenon. But how did the boy from Liverpool end up winning the hearts of the nation?This is his remarkable story, of a twenty-five-year journey through sight loss to blindness. Of the highs, the lows and the downright hilarious along the way. From being a lowlife conker dealer, and running his very own bootlegging empire (kind of) . . .to almost becoming a spy for MI5 (really). And of how he dared himself to try stand-up comedy, and ended up being brilliant on all your favourite TV shows. Before, of course, he surprised himself, as well as everybody else, when he tried dancing on live TV in front of millions. Warm, honest, insightful and laugh-out-loud funny, this is the most likeable, cheering and uplifting book of the year!
