It's a London Thing

Fred Butler has lived in London for over a decade, yet every day she still finds something new and interesting about the city, whether she’s cycling to catch a fashion show, DJ-ing a party, or going on training runs with the Run Dem Crew.

Now, in her first book, the popular blogger invites readers to come along on her London travels. Fred recommends the best each neighborhood has to offer in the way of bars, nightclubs, museums, stores, parks, and more. Her tips come with personal anecdotes and photos, and each chapter features a detailed map. Interspersed throughout the book are “Top 5” lists from a variety of notable personalities, for example the poet James Massiah’s favorite spoken word events; NTS Radio founder Femi Adeyemi’s best record shops; and fashion designer Zandra Rhodes’s most loved colorful locales. As vibrant and animated as Fred herself, this delightfully original take on one of the world’s coolest cities is brimming with its author’s personality and style.
