Amazon kindle unlimited deals - all 'Bookworm' novels available to read through Amazon today, The Secondhand Bookworm


I had fun imagining a reality where one of my bookworm novels was at the forefront of Amazon's kindle advertising campaign this Christmas. I thought it looked very fine and delighted in my fantasy for a bit. My 'bookshop' series of novels are all available to read for free to subscribers of Kindle Unlimited. I'm not actually a member myself because I actually don't get a chance to read very much, but I love having them a part of the Kindle Unlimited scheme as they have been reaching a large audience of readers. Currently I have six novels in my bookshop series. These are the titles:

 The Secondhand Bookworm
Nora and The Secondhand Bookworm
Christmas at The Secondhand Bookworm
Summer at The Secondhand Bookworm
Halloween at The Secondhand Bookworm
Black Friday at The Secondhand Bookworm

 The novels follow after one another but can be enjoyed alone. I am currently writing book 7 in the series 'Book Club at The Secondhand Bookworm' which I am so enjoying.

 How do I chose my titles?
I did have lots of original titles planned for the series but decided to go for themes and seasons in the end, just from a marketing point of view. As it is, Nora and The Secondhand Bookworm is the least popular and I thought about changing it to something more thematic such as 'November at The Secondhand Bookworm' or 'Autumn at The Secondhand Bookworm' or something similar since it is set during a week in November. I could actually even re-title it as 'Poppy Day at The Secondhand Bookworm' as the commemoration features throughout the week. But hopefully readers will continue the series with volume two and enjoy the hilarious adventure.


I also placed the cover of the first volume in my Catholic fiction novel 'House of Villains' in the Kindle Unlimited advert. I think it looks great! I struggled for years over this title but I think it captures the overall theme in a way.

It's so difficult to come up with something eye-catching and attention-grabbing, but House of Villains is also available to read on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited so hopefully there will be people who will take a chance on it and discover this epic, hefty read with its villains, heroes, twists, turns, tragedies, dramas, conversions and Jane-Austen style romance.

Coming 2019

In the New Year I hope to have 'Book Club at The Secondhand Bookworm' available and 'Valentine's Day at The Secondhand Bookworm' too. They are both underway and planned and I am eager to have them on my own shelf to admire and enjoy (author vanity).

I have several more planned so I shall see which one comes next in the series and hope to add to it throughout the year! 'Easter at The Secondhand Bookworm' will probably be Book 9 as Easter featured in many different ways at the bookshop where I worked for ten years and it will be the next season that will follow after Valentine's Day, so there will be more of a consumer/reader interest at its time of publication and release. Easter at the bookshop was often inspiring, fun and fascinating (with crazy situations and happenings too, of course) and I look forward to adding this one to the series!


The Secondhand Bookworm series of novels can be read through AMAZON on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited and in paperback worldwide!
Start the series today.

Get ready for the Apocalypse at The Secondhand Bookworm - new book coming soon!

Image
 GET READY FOR THE APOCALYPSE! The End Times Cult that arrived at the end of book 10 in The Secondhand Bookworm series of novels set in a quirky English bookshop in Castletown (featuring Nora Jolly, a Catholic Duke, plenty of customers, new faces, old faces, laughs, light romance and plenty of books!), is in crisis! After makings its (hilariously outrageous) presence known throughout the Winterland Festival (curses, predictions, doom and gloom and a worrying event looming on the bookshop's horizon) - the End Times Cult has disbanded. Nora and Georgina have arrived at the compound to buy the library of outlandish books for The Secondhand Bookworm, but this may well mark the descent into their very own Apocalypse. The Duke of Cole's brother is having a crisis, there are many new establishment now open in the town, too much weight is being added to the already creaking bookshop floors, the local Ghost Hunt Tour has employed the Grim Reaper, Georgina's purchased a library of Gh

THIS WEEKEND - Free KINDLE SUMMER book - Summer at the Secondhand Bookworm

Image
THIS WEEKEND I am making available my novel 'Summer at The Secondhand Bookworm' which is book 4 in my series of happy, funny novels set in an English bookshop FREE to download through Amazon Kindle. The novels are based upon my ten years experience running three antiquarian and secondhand bookshops in Sussex, England, primarily the branch in Arundel, West Sussex until 2012. 'Summer at The Secondhand Bookworm' naturally includes a wry look at running a bookshop during the summer season with plenty of mishaps and book-related sub-plots. Have you ever attended the Festival of Flowers? Have you been on the Gallery Trail in Arundel? Ever been up to the castle or, of course, into the bookshop in the town below? This book can be enjoyed as a stand alone novel and could serve as a taster for the series of which I currently have 6 in publication. The book will be available to download from free until Monday at midnight, worldwide through Amazon. Here's the blurb

A trip to Badgers Books, Worthing and some resources

Image
Today (Friday 20th December 2019) my sister had her eye test in Specsavers so afterwards we walked down to Badgers Books, a secondhand bookshop in Worthing just off of Montegue Street. I was interested in buying some cheap old books for mixed media collage canvases that I have been doing lately. I am now not immune to the smell of used books having not worked in a bookshop since 2012. I had become immune to it after ten years running a secondhand bookshop in Arundel (and Worthing and Chichester) but no, it was strong and familiar again like when I first started in my bookshop in 2002... Badgers Books is smaller than the bookshop I worked in and the one that features in my series of novels 'The Secondhand Bookworm'. It was easy to navigate and my sister said she loved the mess, with books piled up everywhere. I have to admit it would have driven me crazy, I like books really neat on shelves and none on the floor, but it was fun to have a look about. Being low on the
