OUR AUGUST BOOK OF THE MONTH

 

The Other Hand by Chris Cleave

'..a very funny book about brave, funny people who the reader quickly grows to love… But the heart of the book is Little Bee; naïve yet insightful and sophisticated, damaged yet capable of great courage and humour, she is an unforgettable character. I finished THE OTHER HAND in tears, and I still can't get it out of my head. Just read it.' -- The Gloss

Clio Advert

Many of you will remember the huge Renault Clio advertising campaign last year, which featured the Forest Bookshop in almost every glossy magazine and weekend supplement in the UK. It was a complete surprise to us, but we decided it was harmless and flattering, so we made no fuss. However, Renault did send us a gift. Not a free car, but a nicely framed print of the original artwork. How pleasing to be chosen as an icon for independent shops.
