SIGNED!L.A. Baby! by Tim Key
£16.00Key jetted off to Los Angeles in the fall of 2024 and stayed sane by writing poems and talking to Emily Juniper on the phone. She then did the honourable thing and designed this stuff, lovingly filling the pages of a beautifully-sized green book. Amongst the glitz and glamour of twenty-first century Hollywood, we can view Key’s crazy adventures and infinitesimal moments of loneliness. A hymn to laundrettes and dive bars, a come-and-get-me plea to Audrey Hepburn or frankly any of the greats. This is Key and Juniper’s fourth book and, judging by how emotionally and creatively reliant they are on one another these days, there will be another four coming down the tracks…

SIGNED!Normally Weird and Weirdly Normal : My Adventures in Neurodiversity by Robin Ince
£20.00‘Authentic, heartbreakingly wonderful and refreshingly grounded — this book captures the internal neurodivergent experience with rare grace and warmth’ – Camilla Pang’Tingles with the joy of being different. This book made me so happy’ – Chris Packham, naturalist and author of Fingers in the Sparkle JarA powerful, personal exploration of anxiety, ADHD and neurodiversity, Normally Weird and Weirdly Normal reminds us all – no matter how weird we feel – that it’s okay to be a little different. We all are.
What if being a bit weird is actually entirely normal? What if sharing our internal struggles wasn’t a sign of weakness, but strength?For over thirty years, award-winning broadcaster and comedian Robin Ince has entertained thousands in person and on air. But underneath the surface, a whirlwind was at play – a struggle with sadness, concentration, self-doubt and near-constant anxiety. But then he discovered he had all the hallmarks of ADHD and his stumbling blocks became stepping stones.
In Normally Weird and Weirdly Normal, Robin uses his own experiences to explore the neurodivergent experience and to ask what the point of ‘being normal’ really is. Packed with personal insights, intimate anecdotes and interviews with psychologists, neuroscientists and many neurodivergent people he has met along the way, this is a quirky and witty dive into the world of human behaviour. ‘This is a comforting hug of a book.
Insightful, warm, funny and compassionate, it will make readers, whether neurotypical or neurodivergent, feel less alone’ – Laura Bates, bestselling author of Everyday Sexism’Weirdness is inescapable, and no one does it better than Robin Ince. A superb book, celebrating the needed weirdness in us all’ – Chris Hadfield, astronaut and five-time bestselling author

SIGNED!Bibliomaniac : An Obsessive’s Tour of the Bookshops of Britain by Robin Ince
£10.99A unique, funny picture of Britain… A love letter to bookshops and the vagaries of public transport.’ Richard Osman’Ince’s love of books is infectious.’ ‘Books of the Year’, IndependentWhy play to 12,000 people when you can play to 12? In Autumn 2021, Robin Ince’s stadium tour with Professor Brian Cox was postponed due to the pandemic. Rather than do nothing, he decided instead to go on a tour of over a hundred bookshops in the UK, from Wigtown to Penzance; from Swansea to Margate.
Packed with witty anecdotes and tall tales, Bibliomaniac takes the reader on a journey across Britain as Robin explores his lifelong love of bookshops and books – and also tries to find out just why he can never have enough of them. It is the story of an addiction and a romance, and also of an occasional points failure just outside Oxenholme.

SIGNED!The Importance of Being Interested
£10.99Perfect for fans of Radio 4’s The Infinite Monkey Cage and Professor Brian Cox. ‘A delightful and scintillating hymn to science.’ Professor Carlo RovelliComedian Robin Ince quickly abandoned science at school, bored by a fog of dull lessons and intimidated by the barrage of equations. But, twenty years later, he fell in love and he now presents one of the world’s most popular science podcasts.
Every year he meets hundreds of the world’s greatest thinkers. In this erudite and witty book, Robin reveals why scientific wonder isn’t just for the professionals. Filled with interviews featuring astronauts, comedians, teachers, quantum physicists, neuroscientists and more – as well as charting Robin’s own journey with science – The Importance of Being Interested explores why many wrongly think of the discipline as distant and difficult.
From the glorious appeal of the stars above to why scientific curiosity can encourage much needed intellectual humility, this optimistic and profound book will leave you filled with a thirst for intellectual adventure.

SIGNED!Signed Special Edition – The Waterfall by Gareth Rubin
£18.99***PREORDER NOW TO RESERVE YOUR SIGNED SPECIAL EDITION COPY!!!***
A story about stories within stories, as four interconnected mysteries take the reader through the ages, from Shakespeare’s day to a 19th-century Gothic former Priory, to 1920s Venice, and finally to 1940s California, from the internationally bestselling author of The Turnglass. We begin with the last testament of William Shakespeare as he investigates the real-life murder mystery of his friend, playwright Christopher Marlowe. The second story is a 19th-century Gothic tale about the discovery of Shakespeare’s manuscript, set in an isolated former Priory, now a clinic for those who cannot sleep.
The third is a lighter Golden Age detective tale set in Venice, where private investigator Honora Feldman looks into a baffling case of theft and murder in the British expat community, with the Gothic story at its heart. And finally, a 1940s American Noir, as Ken Kourian finds that a serial killer is recreating all the murders in The Waterfall, the companion book to his friend Oliver Tooke’s The Turnglass. The Waterfall is a beguiling and intricate mystery that cements Gareth Rubin’s position as one of the most original authors writing today.
PRAISE FOR THE TURNGLASS, THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER: ‘This is a story about stories and their perspectives, the passage of time and the slow march of the inevitable. Vivid, resonant, melancholy and beautiful’ JANICE HALLETT ‘Rubin has pulled off the difficult trick of writing an ambitious novel that is also an easy, enjoyable read’ THE TIMES, CRIME BOOK OF THE MONTH‘A bold, breathtaking piece of writing that absolutely nails its two books in one conceit. I doubt I’ll ever read anything like it again, which is the highest compliment I can offer’ STUART TURTON‘A stunning, ingenious, truly immersive mystery… a thrilling delight’ CHRIS WHITAKER‘An intricate and thoroughly mesmerising tale of family plots and schemes across several generations’ GUARDIAN, THRILLER OF THE YEAR‘Your initial amazement at his ingenuity comes to sit alongside an appreciation for the heart and depth he brings to his stories.
