    WHO I AM
    Hello, my name's Jen. I'm an award-winning poet and short story writer. My debut short story collection 'The Beginning of the World in the Middle of the Night' is published by Two Roads, and my children's books 'Franklin's Flying Bookshop,’ ‘Franklin and Luna Go To The Moon’ and ‘Franklin and Luna and the Book of Fairy Tales’ are published by Thames and Hudson. I'm also the author of the Sunday Times bestselling 'Weird Things Customers Say in Bookshops' series, 'The Bookshop Book,' 'The Hungry Ghost Festival’ and ‘The Girl Aquarium.’ I run writing workshops, give talks at universities & book festivals on a variety of topics, judge literary prizes, and take on freelance writing and editing.

    OMG when you addressed me directly my face lit up! 😲🥰 I was like "How does she know I'm watching?!" and then I remembered that I always watch your videos, and of course this one particularly, because poetry ❤️
    You are a blessing!

    I kept searching for all of these in my library's catalogue in a different tab and I'm quite surprised by how many of these my library holds. I reckon Edinburgh libraries are doing quite well stock-wise

    Jen, your hair looks very nice. That bob is adorable on you! I can’t believe you cut it yourself.

    Hi Jen, I thought it was in this video, but maybe I missed it. Which poetry book has the verses you can cut out and place in a hat? Thank you very much in advance!!! 💜

    This gives me nostalgia for reorganising shelves as a bookseller. :) Always so satisfying in the end.

    Poetry! I'm glad all of the ones you read were good or much better. Especially Octopus Museum, I've been eager to read that one for a while. The man you describe in your incident sounds so obnoxious, though hilariously ironic. I feel like as soon as he started arguing about the author I would've just flipped to the title page in the book and turned it to face him and said nothing more. Though something tells me people like that would still somehow find a way to argue around something as definitive as that...

    This was amazing. I added so many to my TBR. I’m very interested in the pamphlets and will be researching those.

    Only just started the video and already two books added two my basket! One for my best friend. Who is training to be a linguist so I know will love “Poems from the edge of extinction” and “Beauty is a verb” and “stairs and whispers” for me :) thanks you I’m sure more will be added as I continue to watch.

    Have you read any Franny Choi? I recently read Death by Sex Machine and really enjoyed it, and thought it sounded like something you would like in terms of style and subject

    I ordered Poems on the Edge of Extinction when you got to it in the video. I’ve been meaning to order it for a long time. It’s such a beautiful/sad idea. I can’t wait to get it.

    Hi, Jen - I’m really enjoying trawling through you channel. It’s taken me a while to find a reviewer who isn’t reviewing YA almost exclusively or stuff I will never read. Good work.

    I loved this video! I read Earthlings by Sayaka Murata in one sitting today, and the ending was so disturbing, it really put me off haha. I've also recently read Revenge by Yoko Ogawa, and it really made me think of you and your work! I looked up your review and saw that you liked it too :)

    On books that seem to multiply when not on shelves: It's almost as if we've discovered through out the ages that bookshelves are the most efficient way to store books. Who would have thunk? :)

    For me, I only keep a collection if there is at least one poem in it I love but to be fair I don't have a massive collection (yet) 😊
