More illustrated flowers frame a snippet on the back cover: "There was one word that explained every oddity she'd encountered since arriving at the inn. But no. She was not going to even think the word 'magic.'" A blurb from Axie Oh, below, reads "The perfect cosy read."

The edges of the book show another gorgeous illustration of vividly colorful flowers against a dark background.

I was so happy to pick up my preordered copy of @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social 's The Faraway Inn from my local bookshop today - and check out how beautiful it is! The dedication couldn't be any more perfectly timed, too. ๐Ÿ’•

Last Tuesday was so much fun, celebrating the launch of @sarahbethdurst.bsky.social's #FarawayInn at @booksofwonder.bsky.social! I dressed up as Kiela from #TheSpellshop" to celebrate, complete with jars of jam (and the best facsimile of a talking plant that I had at home). The event was a blast!
