MEET THE STAFF
Lynnea Quintana (Owner/Founder/CEO):
She is the mastermind the entire business and runs the daily operations of anything and everything book related along with finding and lining up each vendor event and planning all the small details of each event. Lynnea is always on the hunt for making sure that there are books in stock that will target every individual from children’s books to the most popular books for adults which includes banned books, #booktok and the best area in the staff opinion of local authors and staff picks.
Matt Strosser (Vendor Assistant)
Matt has been a long time friend of Lynnea’s and during a discussion it was mentioned about needing help sometimes at vendor events. Over time it became a permanent spot within the staff of the book store. To say the least, this vendor position is vital in helping to relieve some pressure off the owners shoulders if busy with another customer to answer any questions from another customer, aid in helping with other various tasks at the event.
Whitney Crouse (Resident Story Time Individual)
Whitney is a retired reading teacher for the Donegal School District. She is always giving great book recommendations to the owner and has had several books that have been such great suggestions that they have ended up on the “Staff Picks” shelf of the store. Whitney has been our “resident” story time individual when she is in town and calls it “Story Time with Mrs. Crouse” and is always so excited about story time with the children and has developed a relationship with the children that come when she does story time.
Georgie Reardon (Resident Story Time Individual)
Georgie has recently retired from her “day job” and has agreed to stay on as our other resident story time individual. She always comes to our story times with a passion for reading and wanting to make sure that every child that comes to story time enjoys it. She enjoys being able to pick out a book and fun activity as well for the children and always looks to add to her library for her grandchildren as well.
