Nikki (pictured) said: “This is a national initiative to try to encourage people to read more and is giving away one million books to the general public.

People were invited to apply to be one of 20,000 givers of free books, so I applied.

“C-side has been selected which is brilliant.

“I am very pleased. I just thought it is a really nice initiative to be able to read more. One of my customers recommended this book to me so I feel it has come full circle and it is nice to have the opportunity to give that book away free.”
