Book store ‘Novel’ has opened from a cranny at the back of the Queen of the Suburbs in School Lane. The pink-loving cafe has given the space over to co-owners Katie and Joe for them to sell a curated selection of the pair’s favourite reads who want to help customers ‘treat your shelf’.
Check out our gallery below for a first look inside Novel and to help your plan a trip out to visit.
