We know that it’s difficult for some of you to get to the shops at the moment, but also that many of you will be in need of a new book! Whether it be a cookery book to try out as many home-cooked recipes as you can, a yoga book to dedicate some time to indoor exercise, or a guide to mindfulness to help you relax, we’ll have the perfect title for you. With this in mind, we’ve spoken with some of the indie bookshops that stock our books and are still delivering, and have collated a list of them here for you.
