Posted Tuesday, the tweet has amassed more than 19,000 likes and over 2,200 retweets.

“I would love to support this kind of brilliant marketing. Do you ship to the US?” a user asked. The bookstore responded, “We do! We ship all over the world, apart from the EU, because boy, the paperwork is a headache and a half.” When a user asked if the memoir was “signed”, Bert’s Books replied, “Not by him, but I can sign it if you like.”

In another tweet, the bookstore mentioned that the novel ‘How to Kill Your Family’ was the bestselling book in the shop in 2022.

How to Kill Your Family was the bestselling book in the shop in 2022, by the way.

If you’re seeing it for the first time because of this tweet, definitely a fun novel to check out. https://t.co/GRdXFZZsIs
