"There are as many way to collect books as there are books to collect." #finderskeepers #nicholasroyle

One of the best things for a reader is when a favourite author produces a new book (or at least I think so!) I was therefore very excited to discover that Salt Publishing were bringing out a new non-fiction title by Nicholas Royle, the third in his series of books about book hunting, book collecting and book obsessing – “Finders, Keepers: The Secret Life of Second-hand Books”. I’ve read and loved…

Shadow Lines (Nyrkki) (2019-)

In 1950s Helsinki, a secret intelligence team defends Finland's independence as global powers and their agencies converge on the neutral country amid the Cold War.

A random but excellent find about a secret service working to protect the interests and safety of Finland during the Cold War. It is really enjoyable with a little mystery in the middle. This was my first Finnish production, and I really enjoyed it. It has a little bit of 'The Americans' vibe about it, but it was obviously shot on a smaller budget, so don't expect a like-for-like type of show. If you enjoy spy shows with a touch of Cold War, then you will love it. Check it out.

"I got into the habit of reading while walking..." #shadowlines @nicholasroyle

Back in 2021 (is it *really* that long ago??) I had the great pleasure of reading a wonderful book: “White Spines” by Nicholas Royle. The latter is an author and editor, as well as publisher of marvellous little chapbooks under the Nightjar imprint. He’s also a book obsessive and “Spines” explored his search for those books published by Picador which had a distinctive white-spined design. As…
