Hi! I’m Olivia-Savannah. I’m Campaigns and Sales Assistant at Canongate, an independent book publisher. I studied English Literature and Creative Writing at university.

Nice to meet you x

I loved all of Maya Angelou's memoirs, there is a tiny void in my life now that I've finished them! Hope you end up enjoying it too 😊 This is such a fab selection of books! So pleased to hear you're loving your job and I hope you're enjoying your new place as well 😊

[Bibliofilth]

Monstress has such beautiful art, it's so stunning to look at.

[AReaderinTime]

I’m super excited to read defy the night! It sounds so fun and I just adore Brigid Kemmerer! Awesome book haul!

[sophiecarbone]

The book of form and emptiness sounds so good!!

[horror-sickness]

Every time I have been in the UK I wanted to buy ALL the things so I feel you 😅 I really want to get the Before the coffee gets cold books. Under the Whispering Door also sounds fantastic. Love stories about things you regret, you would change and reflecting in general about your life choices.

[HasabeMizurukara]

Monstress is so good!! I need to read The Fifth Season. I own it. I really need to read Becky Chamber's works. I'm so excited to do so. What a cool video!

[ConnorStompanato]

long way to a small angry planet is definitely one i want to get to!! so many great books here 💖

[christinacampbellbooks]

I absolutely adored The Midnight Library. One of my favourite books of the year. Definitely interested in reading Mrs Death Misses Death. Very much looking forward to hearing your thoughts on them both ☺

[GunpowderFictionPlot]

I keep seeing Ruth Ozeki everywhere lately, I loved My Year of Meats, I might have to figure out the quickest way to haul that book too.

I Survived sounds horrible, but really interesting.

So great to hear that you're enjoying your new job still. 🙂

[kseniasadovnikova]

i found the midnight library a bit meh, but i adore the long way to a small angry planet, you're gonna love it!!

[meltedbooks]

Wow, you have so many books that I want to read! Rise to the Sun, Defy the Night, The Startup Wife, and a bunch of others! I’m so curious to hear your thoughts on The Midnight Library. Happy reading!😄

[rasaslase]

Great book haul.
The last books I got are the ones I don’t have with me yet, because I got them second hand and will hopefully pick them up on Saturday. Two of them are Penguin Little Black classics.

[BreakevenBooks]

I've only read the first volume of Monstress but loved it so I'm looking forward to more.

[frannieforthoughts]

Oh, I've never seen anyone show Objects of desire but I randomly came across it on Goodreads and it just caught my eye! I have a feeling it'll be a very interesting read, I'm definitely looking forward to reading it! :D

[LeanneRose]

So many amazing books! Intrigued to hear what you think of I Am Thunder - I thought it was really powerful

[Pixiewithpens]

some of these i also wanna read already, and i added the coward to my tbr! i own fifth season and the long way to a small angry planet, so ill definitely read them at some point - v excited for both! mrs death misses death sounds so interesting, i really hope to get my hands on it one day

[dompishere]

I need to read Monstress and When the Coffee Gets Cold 🤔 I need to pick up a TJ Klune book too!! I have yet to see a bad review about his books. I loved Gather in My Name! I vaguely remember seeing the story of I Survive in a documentary. All these books have such vastly different types of topics but all seem so interesting!

[KierTheScrivener]

Congratulations on moving to the UK.

I have read A Psalm For The Wild Built so now I am excited to read more of Becky Chambers.

The Wild Fox of Yemen sounds amazing. Ohh Prism also sounds really important and good! And Mrs Death and Miss Death. I will look forward to seeing your reviews/wrap ups.

Jude The Obscure by Thomas Hardy📚

[booksandbargains]

Lots of books here that are on my TBR! Not to brag (ok maybe to brag a little) but I found the opposite of always for 10p! i am hoping to finish Defy the Night today and I am LOVING it so far. Once again I have added too many books from my TBR from this!

[OnlyIfForAPage]

Yess, Rise to the Sun! After really liking it, I'm looking forward to You Should See Me in a Crown, too :- ) Currently reading Before the Coffee Gets Cold, I keep forgetting there's a sequel :- )
