@vivacharity in Reading yesterday!
Such a great team of activists!
So many people to have positive conversations with! So rewarding when you can help people learn why they should be vegan.
I met a lovely couple who wanted to join us but one of them was struggling because they are coeliac! I recommended talking to @plantdietitianrosie
One lady started with ‘I’ve been thinking hard about this recently’ which as you can imagine went really well and she went away to learn all the reasons why and how from Viva! Resources - as well as promising to learn 3 good ways to cook tofu!
A man from Scotland who had not even thought about what he ate and made a rapid journey to veganism in front of my eyes!
Challenging religious conversations with 2 different people who both just refused to consider animals even when I just kept the conversation about kindness and compassion - it is possible to be a Christian vegan but neither of them could see what seemed so obvious to me! I recommended @compassionmovie film but doubt they will watch!
The Quiz to Win A Prize of a pack of Percy Pigs went down really well to create engagement as did the range of foods to taste and the blow up giant pig from @friendsnotfooduk

I really recommend this group to you if you live in the Berkshire area and want to make a difference in the world!

Got a first look inside @bookbarto and it’s exactly the kind of place Toronto needs right now. 📚🍸

Located at:

📍 600 Markham St., Toronto, Ontario

Book Bar is a new space dedicated to the connective power of books, hospitality, and conversation. Part bookstore, part bar, part gathering place, it’s designed for people who love to learn, discuss, discover, and connect.

One of my favourite parts of the evening was simply seeing people gather. Conversations flowing between bookshelves, new connections being made, and a room full of people brought together by a shared love of stories and ideas.

A huge thank you to @bookbarto for having me, and so lovely meeting @bookishbeti , @thisstoryaintover , @jaimefok , and @reading.things along the way. ✨

Grand opening is this weekend so be sure to check it out. Stay tuned for a special IN THE ROOM feature coming soon. 👀🎙️

📚 do you ever dream about opening an indie bookstore with your friends? 📚

i did not include it on my bookish resolutions for 2026, but i aim to intentionally read the books that i see my friends recommend on their accounts. after being included in @unlikableprotagonist’s list, i was inspired to create a reading list drawing from 20 content creators whose taste i trust completely. as i began organizing all of the books into the current spread, it reminded me of the staff picks section at the bookstore where i used to work and how meticulously my colleagues and i organized it. i let myself daydream for a bit, thinking about how cool it would be to work in a bookstore with all of the wonderful people featured in this post, just recommending and promoting books all day long. but, if you think about it, that’s already what we do together on bookstagram! what a wonderful forum to be part of!

some of the books featured were already on my 26 for 2026 reading list, so it’s great to see how much my friends enjoyed them. swipe through to see my bookish pals’ selections, and please follow their pages if you already don’t because they’re all awesome and their content inspires me regularly to read. thank you to everyone i reached out to again for sending me their staff pick!

which titles are you adding to your tbr?

“the main character and the hero, they are not the same” 😭❤️‍🩹😭❤️‍🩹😭❤️‍🩹😭❤️‍🩹

my first book of 2026 being a 5🌟 read has really set the tone for this year!

fredrik backman and I have a love/hate relationship. anxious people and beartown? didn’t like 😔 a man called ove? LOVED 🫶🏼 so I was very glad to have enjoyed this one as much as I did. regardless of my feelings towards some of backman’s work, he is a phenomenal writer and storyteller, there’s no denying that; however, sometimes the way his books are written and the plot just don’t do it for me. he has a very distinct writing style.

giving backman another shot, I knew I wanted to listen to his latest book. sometimes I find that audiobook narrators can bring a story and characters to life better than myself imagining every nuance, tone, and piece of dialogue. I’m so happy I did because the audiobook was great!

backman’s stories are always character driven and this one was no different. I grew to love these characters immensely. a telltale sign of an amazing novel is when you feel as if you know the characters personally, you feel apart of their story, you don’t want it to end, and you miss them when it’s over ❤️‍🩹 backman is a master at writing real, raw, and human stories. you are given no choice but to root for these people.

tagged are some of MY FRIENDS who convinced me, personally, or through their ratings and reviews to pick this one up and give it a try 💙
