24.01.2022 The PM’s Literary Awards short lists have been announced!

23.01.2022 Broadcaster Jacinta Parsons was in her twenties when she first began to feel unwell. Doctors couldn’t explain why, and Jacinta wondered if it might be in her he...ad until eventually receiving a diagnosis of Crohn’s disease. With compelling honesty, Jacinta trains a microscope on the unique challenges of living with an invisible condition that we will be all too familiar to those living with an ‘unseen’ chronic illness.

21.01.2022 Hi everyone. We have had an outage of internet and phones this morning. Getting back to normal now but we have a backlog of everything so please be patient!! We will get back to you when we can!! Thanks for your patience.

20.01.2022 From the chef at @smithanddaughters @shannon_martinez has a new book that both vegans and non-vegans can enjoy!! @hardiegrantbooks @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

20.01.2022 Do your Christmas book buying early this year the book supply chain is under pressure due to that pesky global pandemic, so #shopearly and #shoplocal this holiday season.

19.01.2022 The advice from everybody is to shop early for Xmas if you have specific needs as Covid has and will continue to cause huge disruptions in supply. There won’t be time for reprints on any titles with colour printing in particular. So, you’ve been warned!!

19.01.2022 A new Shaun Tan!! In store now. @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

19.01.2022 The new Jimmy Barnes is out of the box and we have signed copies!! (Limited numbers) @harpercollinsaustralia @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal

19.01.2022 The fabulous @freyablackwood has written and illustrated this one which has just hit the shelves. Jules and her identical twin George the pig have a lovely day together, even though George is sometimes unwilling. I love how Freya conveys family life in such a warm and realistic way. A winner for sure. @harperkidsau @harpercollinsaustralia @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

19.01.2022 Here at Fairfield Books we are currently BURSTING at the seams with new releases as October 2020 is proving to be a bonanza of great reading. In between the heavy hitters (with new books from Trent Dalton, Craig Silvey, Jane Harper, Robert Gailbraith (a.k.a. J.K. Rowling) and Richard Flanagan) and an eclectic Booker shortlist chockful of new authors, there are lots of other books coming out that you should know about.

17.01.2022 After the rave review from @natashajb74 of the lamb and green bean dish from #ayearofsimplefamilyfood by @juliaostro I cooked it and it well and truly lived up to the review!! Delicious!! @plumbooks @macmillanaus @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

17.01.2022 A quote from the CEO of the Australian Booksellers’s Association, Robbie Egan. Bear this in mind when planning your Xmas shopping!! The moral of the story is, if you want particular titles under your Xmas tree, don’t leave it until the last minute to shop!

17.01.2022 As is often the case I forgot to take a photo of my finished dish but my version did look good too!! On the recommendation of my @simonschusterau rep Liz I cooked this One-pan chicken curry rice last night and it lived up to the description given. Basically, Yum!! From #goodfoodnewclassics Love a one pan dish of goodness. @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

15.01.2022 We are staring on the annual staff favourites of the year display. Top shelf only so far. Quite a bit of arm wrestling this year as at least six of the titles were on more than one staff members picks! @fairfieldvictoria

15.01.2022 Welcome back everyone - https://mailchi.mp/8ad4fc574000/welcome-back-everyone

15.01.2022 I need to print this title out and gave it as a reminder because I so often forget the squeeze of lemon before serving!! Lots of lovely dished in here. Trialling one tonight I think. @hardiegrantbooks @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

15.01.2022 I cooked a lot from the first collection from Good Food last year. It was called Favourite recipes and the recipes were great. This year, and just arrived is New Classics. They are the recipes from @theageaustralia newspaper and magazine columns, all in one spot!! One is coming home with me tonight!! @simonschusterau #goodfood #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas @fairfieldvictoria

14.01.2022 Sofie Laguna’s latest book has just arrived and today you can actually come into the shop and buy it!!! We are very happy to be welcoming people back for personal shopping. There are just a few things to bear in mind: sanitise your hands, wear a mask, keep your distance, minimise the handling of stock and keep your visit to 15 minutes. And we will be restricting the number of people in store at any one time. Stay safe everyone and HELLO again!! And thank you for sticking with us during this long winter of lockdown. We are open 9.30-5.30 weekdays, 9.30-5 Saturday & 10-5 Sunday. 11-3 on Cup Day. @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

06.01.2022 Honeybee by Craig Silvey has been racing out the door. The long awaited book from the author of Jasper Jones will not disappoint. This morning (Saturday) we have had internet and phone outages which has meant we haven’t been able to respond to any of your messages etc. The issue has been sorted now but there is a lot of catching up to do. Sorry for the delays!! Please be patient while we get on top of things. Staff are working doing their best. @fairfieldvictoria

06.01.2022 The new Oliver Jeffers has just arrived! @harpercollinsaustralia @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal

06.01.2022 Shopping early for Christmas will mean you have the best chance of getting what you want and also avoid problems of crowding. Shops need to be careful with the numbers of customer in their shops so avoid the hassle and shop early!!

05.01.2022 In store now!! Not the man himself unfortunately but his book!! @penguinbooksaus @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

05.01.2022 Back in stock at last!! @juliaostro @plumbooks @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

04.01.2022 Warren Kirk continues his suburban series of books with our locale!! Northside, full of images and stories of our side of town. @scribepub @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal

04.01.2022 Back to @dianahenryfood with a chicken, orange and olive gremolata dish from her book #Simple It was beautifully balanced with a freshness about it. We will have it again for sure. @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

04.01.2022 Even though March only feels like five minutes ago, it is Christmas in a month. Though we would all like to have 2020 finished as soon as possible, it is a slightly daunting thought of how much needs to be organised before then. This is the year not to leave things to the last minute as Christmas shopping will require a bit more patience than normal so that we continue to operate in a Covid safe manner with restrictions on numbers in store.... https://fairfieldbooksonstation.wordpress.com//the-perfec/

04.01.2022 Out of box now!! @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal

03.01.2022 It doesn’t look much like the picture really but I did my best. Lovely fresh and crunchy fennel and apple with wilted spinach and pistachio butter. It went very well with our bbq’d lamb. From #justaddlemon by @daniellemariealvarez @hardiegrantbooks A new cookbook for some summer inspiration @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

03.01.2022 Goodnight shop!! Lots of people are already doing some Xmas shopping , making sure they can get what they want before supply issues kick in. This is the smart thing to do this year with Covid disruption. See you tomorrow at 9.30am. @fairfieldvictoria @shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

03.01.2022 The big box opening today is J K Rowling’s Ickabog New books just keep rolling in!! @hachetteaus @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

03.01.2022 We can show you the box but can’t open it. The (ex) President is in the house!! Available from when we open the doors tomorrow (Wednesday)at 9.30am. @penguinrandomhouse @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas

01.01.2022 This book might break your heart but along the way you will love the writing, the description of a country childhood, a wonderful sense of place and a meditation on what it is to be an artist. A young boy is traumatised and goes on to live an insular and lonely life but eventually rediscovers his love of drawing and painting. @sofielagunabooks builds the tension at various times to an almost unbearable level as you hope Lawrence doesn’t go down a certain path. Sad, beautiful and in my top 5 of the year. @allenandunwin @fairfieldvictoria #shoplocal #shopearlyforchristmas
