We loved having Tess Burnett and Jo Durrant at Sturminster Newton Literary Festival yesterday. Such a brilliant discussion and a wonderful book.
Enjoyed a lovely first visit to Sturminster Newton to be in conversation with @tessburnett56 at @SturminsterF - a really warm and engaged audience, lovely to talk to Tess and a beautiful place to visit ☺️

Over 2000 reviews- and lit looks like 5 stars too. Come and see Tess at Stuminster Newton Literary Festival on June 11th.
The Hanging of Hettie Gale has just topped 2000 reviews in the UK. To say I’m gobsmacked is an understatement. Here’s just one of the most recent ones. It’s such a pleasure to read this, makes all the hard work worthwhile. Thank you! https://t.co/HnKStTgT1F
