Thrilled to have picked up my copy of #YoungMungo Douglas Stuart ‘a deeply moving story of masculinity, the push and pull of family, the violence faced by so many queer people and the dangers of loving someone too much’ Really looking forward to reading this 😊📚🎉
I finished #YoungMungo at 1 o’clock this morning - bawling!! Between that and #Strictly I’m an emotional wreck. Keep it up Douglas Stuart - hope you are working on the next one!

A great experience meeting Douglas Stuart today at Waterstones Glasgow.
He was very king in signing a book for Scottish Families Affected by Alcohol and Drugs. #shuggiebain
❤️
Thanks to Camilla Elworthy for chatting to me about SFAD’s #BoundTogether project.
Looking forward to ‘meeting the lads’

Only a few pages left of #YoungMungo . I don’t really know how to express my feelings. It’s harsh & it hurts me to read it at times. I actually put my hand on the page to hide the words at one point. But the writing is beautiful & sublime & the lighter moments are treasures 💛
Celebrate Pride Month with these great reads from some of our favorite Queer Authors!

Thank you so much Camilla Elworthy Douglas Stuart Picador Books for my copy of #YoungMungo - absolutely ecstatic to get to read this book and look forward to blogging!
Why have I not read #ShuggieBain earlier. Such a book and one of my favourites read this year. Can’t wait for #YoungMungo Douglas Stuart #BeatTheBacklog
Shuggie Bain was one of the best books I read in 2020 and Douglas Stuart has done it again with the devastating and stunningly written #YoungMungo .
So grateful to Douglas Stuart for an incredibly moving and thought provoking chat with our AdvH! Exceptionally proud of our pupils for their insightful discussions about his fantastic novels #ShuggieBain #YoungMungo
Had to refrain from weeping when Douglas Stuart came into the office so we could all congratulate the HUGE success of #YoungMungo being a Sunday Times Bestseller! 💙🕊 Douglas, you are truly a diamond and it’s been such an honour to work on your books ✨ Picador Books
Another fantastic Manchester Literature Festival event this evening, a fantastic conversation between hilarious and lovely Douglas Stuart & Jackie Kay at Contact. I can’t wait to read #YoungMungo ! #MLF
