"When I launched Shelves 7 years ago, our slogan was `Where Great Stories Are Sold`. However, during our first year of business, I began to toy with the idea of changing it to something that aligns with my vision and goal of building an indie bookstore that encourages people to incorporate reading books into their digitally dependent lives. In 2020, we changed our slogan to `Where Reading Is a Lifestyle`, which has since become embedded in everything that we do and is also the name of our popular book subscription service too. Honestly, it`s one of the best changes we`ve ever made." 🙂 ~ Abby, Your Friendly Neighborhood Bookseller

"Oil and perfume make the heart glad, and the sweetness of a friend comes from his earnest counsel." - Proverbs 27:9
"While talking to @loveneki one day about my dream of opening a bookstore, she casually suggested that I should start out doing pop-ups. I hadn`t considered a pop-up prior to her mentioning it. Hosting a book fair, yes, but not a pop-up bookstore. Still, I didn`t let her brilliant idea go to waste; instead, I got to work on figuring out how to execute it. And on June 22, 2019, I officially launched Shelves as a pop-up bookstore in Uptown Charlotte." 😊 ~ Your Friendly Neighborhood Bookseller

"On May 9, 2018, your Friendly Neighborhood Bookseller wrote a journal entry expressing my desire to have `shelves of books` in my future bookstore. I knew then that Shelves would be the name of my bookstore, which unbeknownst to me at the time would launch the following year. God has authored Shelves story from the beginning and I`m thankful for every opportunity that we get to serve people, communities, and organizations." - Abby
