Recently the Bookseller's Association ran a prize draw and we were lucky enough to have one of our customers win.
I'll rephrase that. Not just one of our customers but one of our FAVOURITE customers. All three of us agreed that the £100 book token couldn't have gone to a nicer person.
Jean Barlow is one of our regulars and it is typical of her that she spent the whole hundred pounds on presents for some of her friends.
Here she is receiving the £100.00 book token from David. As you can see, she is a fan of The Fight for Fordhill Farm by Ben and Charlotte Hollins and Nicky Ross. The other book she wanted in great numbers was The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows.
Narrow fronted but surprisingly large shop in Moreton-in-Marsh High Street with comprehensive stock of (mostly) remainders and other reasonably priced books. Friendly, relaxed atmosphere with a little eccentricity. Two old duffers, Tony and David, who have a remarkable similarity to Minnie Bannister and Henry Crun, own it. Nina does her best to run it - despite their hindrance. Child, dog and gorilla friendly - we'll even put up with adults. Tel.01608 652666 / mail. cotsbookstore@tiscali.co.uk
