Cottage Book Shop celebrates 40 years with author signing
From staff reports
The Cottage Book Shop in Glen Arbor, which Jenny Puvogel acquired last year, will celebrate its 40th birthday with an author signing on Saturday, June 28, from 5-7 pm.
“We will have several local authors signing books under the tent outside—some new books, some older books—and some light refreshments,” said Puvogel. “We will be open in the shop and have fun promotions. In the store the current staff will be there talking about books they love this summer. There will be a 15% discount for everyone.”
The author lineup includes: Sue Boucher (Sleeping Bear Dunes Day), M Christine Byron (Perfect Omena Day), Bryan Gruley (Bitter Frost), Mark Lindsay (The Soul of Sleeping Bear), Tim Mulherin (This Magnetic North), Steve Reddicliffe (The New York Times Essential Book of Cocktails), Kit Robey (The Sleeping Bear Wakes Up), Barbara Siepker (Historic Cottages of Glen Lake) and more.
Puvogel bought the cozy book shop in a nearly 100-year-old log cabin in the heart of Glen Arbor from Boucher in April 2024 after working there for five years. Boucher bought the book shop 11 years ago from Siepker, who acquired it from founder Mollie Weeks in 1995 and then moved it across Lake Street to its current location between the Glen Arbor Gardens and Lake Street Studios.
