📙 PRE-ORDER NOW AVAILABLE 📙

It’s here! It’s happening! @janeclairebradley’s debut novel Dear Neighbour is available for pre-order and we’d love it if you could show the FBS founder some serious love by hitting the link in our bio to get yourself a copy 💌

“When the residents of Leodis Street are threatened with eviction, Alice knows that she needs to make a stand. As she reaches out to her neighbours and learns about their lives, she is surprised to discover that she might already live next door to the friends she has been yearning for. Perhaps together they can build a community to be proud of and discover the true meaning of home.”

Folks, we’ve read it. It’s really bloody good. It’s gritty but overflowing with compassion and you’re gonna fall in love with each of these characters so hard 💌
