Book Sales April - live and online

Not a real item. But, oh, imagine if it was. It is generated by ChatGPT AI, and I realise how problematic that is.

It won’t compare with March’s World Book Month sales, but I do what I can. Getting off to a poor start with my first classes being at a school that bought no books and my second (Phoenix Bordon) being cancelled, we got going by learning I have a new best seller: the colour edition of Richard, and also the Shakespeare Omnibus (NB my first sales day, in Guildford, may not be typical of every audience)
