This chapter sees Claire and Rebecca sit down with fellow Corkonian and indie bookshop owner Fiona from Leaf and Bower.
In their first in-person interview, Claire and Rebecca found a special kind of magic in this, where the tea is flowing, laughs are had, and so many books are discussed. The insight into the background of owning a bookshop is so interesting, and Fiona's recommendations are fantastic.
We hope you enjoy this chat with Fiona. If you're ever in the vicinity, be sure to check out her shop in Ballincollig, Cork. We can assure you that you won’t be disappointed!
