"Whoever receives one little child like this in My name receives Me." - Matthew 18:5
Today is Shelves Bookstore`s 7-year anniversary and my objectives are clear: 1) To magnify the Lord Jesus Christ without fear or compromise and 2) To serve our customers incredibly well.
Thanks for being on this journey with us. It means more than you know. ❤️

"Imagine being asked to ship books to a customer in Australia?! That`s it. That`s the caption." 📚 - Your Friendly Neighborhood Bookseller

"Before my career in bookselling, I was in human resources and my primary focus was employee engagement; hence, me learning how to make popcorn using a real popcorn maker because the staff at one of the companies that I used to work for loved the smell of fresh popcorn in the office. So, when I started Shelves, my hope was that my gift for effectively engaging employees would help me build a community of engaged customers and readers. I was right." 😊 - Your Friendly Neighborhood Bookseller

"We sold hundreds of our debut Reading Is Freedom apparel in summer of 2020 but I had no idea how to generate postage labels for the orders that we received. Thankfully, Tony offered to teach me as long as I was willing to come to @enderlycoffeeco roastery at 5:00am for a 1-on-1 tutorial with him. That was super early for me at the time but I went and I`ve been shipping books & apparel all over the USA ever since! It`s been a pleasure working with Tony and his team for the last 7 years and their coffee shop located at 2620 Tuckaseegee Rd is still one of my top 3 hang out spots in Charlotte. I recommend their coffee all the time because they`re legitimately focused on people first and adding value to our community." 🙂 ~ Your Friendly Neighborhood Bookseller

"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
