Another brilliant book for 2025 and it’s arriving 06/02. Preorder it with us right here rocketshipbookshop.co.uk/product/mart...
Marty Moose: First Class Mischief by Claire Powell is going to be a BIG hit here. A chapter book for younger readers, it’s lively, exciting and adorably absurd. Wonderful!
And to you! Thank you X
Oooo! I spy @tigertalesbooks.bsky.social @florisbooks.bsky.social #CicadaBooks and more delights! Be right over!
Four customers today. At one stage, I really did think it was going to be the first day in 29 years with no one through the door. I know it's the cold weather etc etc, but it's hard to stay upbeat when it's quiet. Want to buy a book and keep me busy wrapping tomorrow?

Nighttime illustration of a boy wearing green, blue, and white striped pyjamas sitting on a desk and holding the head of teddy bear who is sat next to him. There is a book about space on the desk next to them, as well as a toy rocket and a cup filled with pens, brushes, and pencils. They are sitting in front of a large window, through which we can see the night sky and the Ursa Major constellation.

I stopped by The Rocketship Bookshop in Salisbury to sign a few copies of my book, The Dark Friars.
I may have indulged in a cider or two at lunch, so hopefully, my signature turned out okay! ✍️ 🥴
It still blows my mind to see my book on the shelves of a real bookshop 🤯

Dear Customers, We are so grateful to everyone who has been shopping with us and placing orders. Normally, we are able to get your books for you for the next day, however our wholesaler is currently unable to provide this service due to what they describe as unprecedented level of orders. We haven't received any orders this week and it doesn't look like we will receive anything tomorrow. We are emailing and contacting customers who are expecting our normal level of excellent customer service to explain that this is a situation out of our control and we sincerely hope our wholesaler will be able to swiftly resolve their issues. We are confident that things will return to normal next week and we hope you will continue to place your orders with us. We are looking a little sparse for the weekend but we still have a lot of lovely books for you to choose from. Please accept our apologies and we would like to thank our customers for their patience, understanding and continuing support. Jo

A reminder that you can request free gift wrapping when you order online, and you can request it in person at the shop too!
Here's your daily reminder that bookstores keep the love of reading alive — but they also keep neighborhoods beautiful. They are places to gather, to celebrate stories, to find community.
Please do your holiday shopping at your local independent bookstore, if you are lucky enough to still have one.
It’s a brilliant book!
