2024’s almost over and it’s 100% over at the shop !
First of all, I wanted to THANK YOU ALL for coming to Damn Fine Bookstore to buy your books, to talk about books, to drink coffee while you read your book, to smell candles while thinking about books. I love this silly little bookshop of mine most of all when you’re all there to love it with me ! So THANK YOU ! I can’t wait for 2025 and for all the silly things I planned already *chut*
Here are the big winners of 2024, for you and for me !
For you, first of all, the 6 best-sellers of the year are Intermezzo, Babel, Everything I Know About Love, Blue Sisters, The Pumpkin Spice Cafe & Funny Story.
Sally Rooney is no surprise but she still managed to sell more than everyone else while her book came out in September, insane ! R. F. Kuang, Blue Sisters & Funny Story are three fave of mine, very happy to see them here. Dolly Alderton is here with a book that’s 6 years old, isn’t she a queen ? And what’s that, a lil fall-spice-romance ?! Of course !
Now for me, swipe to see my 6 favorite reads of 2024 are Our Share of Night (750 pages of pure perfection), Big Swiss (a bookclub pick, yay !), Death Valley (Melissa Broder owns my heart), The Wedding People (what a NICE surprise, AMAZING book), I Hope this Finds you Well (this is everything I love in a book) and Perfume & Pain (now THIS is also everything I love in a book)
What’s your big 6 of 2024 ? Let me know !!
Happy holidays, I hope you’ll read plenty of books until 2025, and I’ll see you on January 3 to talk about them, around a coffee of course !!
