@melissarchaplin: It’s officially autumn, which means it’s The Secret History season. With a guest appearance from the hands of @Tom Ayling - this signed copy of The Secret History was my gift to myself for getting the job as Head of Archives and I’m still delighted it’s in my collection. So many colleagues were invested in me getting this! The Secret History is one of my absolute favourite books, and I love a signed edition. Thanks again Tom, for sourcing this for me! #thesecrethistory #donnatartt #darkacademia #darkacademiabooks #BookTok
