Good morning everyone and happy Wednesday! I had a really exciting day yesterday as the bookshop I work at opened early to celebrate the release of Intermezzo by Sally Rooney.
I was very nervous the night before as I was worried about setting everything up so arrived far earlier than I was meant to. It all went smoothly though and we actually had people waiting outside the shop which was great to see.
It was so fun to talk to the Sally Rooney fans and share some pastries with them all. I might have bought a few too many pastries in my excitement but having sampled some of them myself I can confirm they were very yummy!
We actually sold 11 copies of Intermezzo yesterday and won the fun competition we had going between the stores as to who would sell the most.
I was lucky enough to receive an early copy of Intermezzo and thought it was a great read. Do check my profile for the review I posted on Monday.
The pictures below are my morning set up and the window display I did later that day.
Q: Do you play Chess?
A: No, I actually had to Google how to set up the chest board in the window as I didn’t know….




It all looks great looks great Jo! xx

This looks adorable – wish I lived nearer as I’d definitely have popped in (new Sally Rooney and pastries – what’s not to love?).

Sounds like fun! I can play chess but not very well. I can never think more than a couple of moves ahead!
