Whatever you are looking for, your local has It all
Looking for drama? Romance? Personal Development? Business skills? Inspiring people?
Whatever you are looking for in a book, Homebru – Your Local – has it all.
Exclusive Books’ Homebru is a carefully curated collection of 39 trending, unputdownable books – all written by local writers or set on home ground.
The campaign ‘Your Local Has It All’ cheekily reminds customers that not only does their local Exclusive Books store (and we all have a local!) have every kind of book to suit any reading taste, but also, and particularly, a range of local books to suit every kind of reader.
Making way for the readers of romance and light fiction that BookTok has brought through our doors, we are excited that books like Jo Watson’s The Ex Effect, Kelly L Clarke’s Sunshine Kisses and Lindsay Norman’s Khaki Fever Have been included.
For a fun read, but something a little more substantial, pick up a copy of Paige Nick’s The Book People and Tom Eaton’s An Act of Murder. A book like Elizabeth Wasserman’s Mevrou Smit se reels vir goeie gedrag taps into the cozy crime wave, and Eleanor Baker’s Die Vyf Susters, Juliette Mnqeta’s If the Dead Could Talk and Hell Run Tobruk, by Justin Fox offer nail-biting page-turning escapism.
Tipping the scale of the heavyweights is Penny’s Haw’s Follow Me to Africa, and of course, Antjie Krog’s new book, in English and Afrikaans.
Homebru’s non-fiction offering is just as meaty and varied. Rich offerings are showcased in business, current affairs, African spirituality, history and psychology, with biography particularly exciting, from Khaya Dlanga honest but funny reflections in Life is like that sometimes, the story of icon Sol Kerzner and Mpoomy Ledwaba’s bestselling How Did We Get Here? to fresh and brave personal stories like Tshiamo Modisane’s searing autobiog I am Tshiamo, and in a landmark publishing story – Led by Shephard’s An Initiate’s Memoir by Jeffrey Rakabe.
Exclusive Books offers double Fanatics points on all purchases of Homebru books during May. If you are not yet a member, ask your friendly bookseller to sign you up in less than two minutes.
