Sara Mann

Bookstore Waif / Co-Owner

It has been a dream of mine to open a bookshop and have been making plans for a few years now. So, when I lost my job I thought what better time then now. I have been working in bookstores for about 15 years and I am very passionate about books and reading. I love to read Horror, Comedy, and Speculative Fiction. The weirder the better.

Leah Mann

Bookstore Domovoi / Co-Owner

My reading journey started in Middle School with the American Girl and Goosebumps series’. I don’t read as much as I would like and I spend far too much time creating RPG campaign content that my players will never see. I will try any genre at least once and I love discovering new authors.


Ink Drinker [ingk dring-ker]

noun

French term for a person who loves to read.


As soon as we heard this term we loved it and we could not get it out of our heads so we had to use it for our store. What is better to have with you when you curl up with a good book then a good drink? Maybe a cat?


Meet our Shop Cats

Edgar Alan Purr

Office Admin

Edgar is actually not a cat, she is in fact a full-bodied apparition in the shape of a cat. Her attempts to frighten others only ever result in frightening herself. She is always the first one to join a meeting… when it’s catered. She is always on the look out for her next favorite food/cookbook.

Silvia Meowreno-Garcia

Inventory Manager

Silvia is not afraid of anything and she is rarely surprised. She is very curious and wants to know everything that is going on. The idiom “Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back” was her senior quote. Her favorite thing to read is non-fiction.
