The Bookseller
The best bits from the last decade of Do Books in one larger-than-usual volume. It's a great 'taster' that introduces what Do Books is all about and features some of the best insights and tips they've been sharing with the world since 2013. And, as ever, it's all beautifully designed and curated in a way that's easy to pick up and put down whenever you need a blast of inspiration.
