Welcome Lynne Hinton, author of Wedding Cake, to Hillsborough. See EVENTS: June 5th Book Signing.

Several people asked why I chose the name. Purple is associated with both nobility and spirituality.The crow is a symbol for strength for the turn in the road, and signifying an advent of change.

I’m very excited about opening this neighborhood bookstore in the lovely historic town of Hillsborough. Because I feel compelled to do this and it is a new road I am walking, the purple crow seems a most appropriate name.
