A huge thank you to Caroline Roberts for visiting us at The Accidental Bookshop yesterday to sign copies of her books, including her newest novel The Seaside Supper Club 🌊🐚

Perfect cosy feel-good reading with the added bonus of recipes at the end based on food and drink mentioned in the stories themselves, Caroline's books would make an ideal bookish treat. We've got signed copies to spare!
