Got a huge feeling the signing may take longer than an hour with so many guests but lovely lineup.

I assume Arion will have a stand as well so you can buy AFF books in English? Not sure how many people will need the French ones!

Agree with James though, with over 150 attendees the signing queue will take much longer than an hour unless it's only 2 books per person max.
