I have always loved reading. My earliest memories are those spending every Saturday morning in the town library, listening to ‘story-time’ and then being able to choose my three books to take home for the week. Once grown up, and various career paths later, I started working at Penguin Books and after eleven years with the company, as sales and marketing director, I decided to leave and open my own business, I Love Books. Not everyone has the time, or indeed the inclination, to browse in bookshops. A select few regularly visit bookshops, but that isn’t to say that everyone else is not interested in books – in fact, the opposite is true. My goal is to introduce the general public to authors, and authors to the general public.
