Hi! Thanks a bunch! Yeah, actually it's a paperback but it's thick actually. Thanks again!
No worries, if it's paperback, you may want to pop a bit of card either side of it to prevent the cover from getting damaged on the corners, or wrap the book inside the jiffy envelope. Good luck with your request, happy to help.
