My tiny bookshop reached 10,000 followers on Instagram!!

If you would have told me a month ago, that Austen’s Shelf would be celebrating 10,000 book loving friends just one month after opening, I would have cried. (Spoiler alert, I just did again!) To think that a cancer scare turned allowed for a chance to chase this dream that has been in my heart for the longest time. I’ve had the wonderful pleasure of meeting so many amazing friends in South Jersey and beyond through Austen’s Shelf. I’ve watched the sunrise over flower fields, I’ve dealt with highs and lows with our electronics, I’ve gotten to host a grand opening at my childhood mall, and most of all…I’ve got to be surrounded by what I love the most. BOOKS!

Thank you for the love!! Can’t wait to continue seeing how this story unfolds! 💖📚 #booktok #books #tinybookshop #njbookstore NJ Bookstore New Jersey TBR Romantasy
