Our SIGNED Exclusive edition of Gill Hornby's The Elopement is a thing of beauty. Not only does its stencilled edge and bespoke endpapers, but look on the reverse of the dust jacket and you'll see the other side of the stitching that adorns the cover šŸ˜šŸ‘Œ waterstones.com/book/the-elope…

A walk around lovely Crail this afternoon, then fish and chips at the Tailend in St Andrews, followed by a fabulous Gill Hornby book event at Topping & Company Booksellers of St Andrews and Scottish tablet ice-cream at Janetta’s. Pretty sure that’s the perfect day.
