Welcome To Notes From The Bookstore!

Hi!!! 

Welcome to Notes From The Bookstore! My name is Susanne Blumer. I'm an author, booklover and owner of two independent bookstores nestled in the magical mountains of North Carolina: Sassafras on Sutton in Black Mountain and Sassafras on Main in Waynesville. You can take a virtual tour of each store on the website. One floor is a bookstore and the other is a full toy store. We have a great time!

I'm so excited to start this new venture. I absolutely love talking about books, reading books, selling books... all things books! I can't wait to share some of my favorite books with you and some of my favorite authors.

We'll also be taking a peek behind the shelves of my two bookstores. If you've ever wondered what working in or owning a bookstore is like, I'll give you a glimpse into that part of my world. Spoiler alert: it's pretty amazing!

Look for episodes of the podcast to release each week on Tuesday. All of our new book releases come out on Tuesday, so I thought I keep that going. And I have no idea why Tuesday. I'll find out and let you know.

Know someone I should chat with (maybe even you!)? Fill out our Be A Guest form and apply. 

Our first season is launching soon and will be available everywhere. Stay tuned.

Thanks for coming along with me on this bookish trip. I appreciate you!

Susanne
