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. 💕 sarahbethdurst.com/FarawayInn.htm #booksky

A photograph of a hardcover British copy of The Faraway Inn, by Sarah Beth Durs. The illustrated front cover shows a moss-covered old house surrounded by flowers and woodland, with a frame of more winding flowers around the title and picture.

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.

The dedication reads: For everyone who needs an escape, a refuge, a moment to breathe.
