Hi! My name is Autumn. I’m an avid reader, podcast listener, and native Michigander. You’ll usually find me reading literary fiction or nonfiction to help me be a better human. My love of working at Bay Books is twofold: 1) I get to be surrounded by books! I’m always adding titles to my tbr list. 2) Our customers are so supportive and have such great recommendations. I always learn something from my conversations with people who come into the shop. I am always happy to listen and learn from customers, as well as recommend something for their next read. 

When I’m not in the shop, you can find me working on grad school coursework, thrifting, and always drinking coffee.

Hi, my name is Robin and I moved to Suttons Bay after visiting a dear friend for extended visits for a couple of years. I grew up surrounded by books. My parents met while performing a play, they were professional actors and avid readers. Bay Books reminds me every day of them. I love languages and I  studied French and Italian. During the 1980’s I had the good fortune to live in France. Presently I am attempting Welsh. I enjoy many genres, fiction and non fiction but I find myself most drawn to other world fantasy and I adore a well written mystery. Sometimes I  have to remind myself that sleep is necessary and that reading til dawn is not always the best idea! 

Hello! My name is Amanda. I am currently a senior attending Suttons Bay high school and am very enthused to work in our very sweet community. While I am active in our community through various mediums, I thoroughly enjoy a different perspective of Suttons Bay that Bay Books offers. An interwoven family of individuals that are enthusiastic of literature and are ever-so welcoming and warm. Moreso, I am granted the privilege to work alongside many respectable and strong characters. Although, I can be a bit subdued, I enjoy learning and harnessing new experiences. As I gain more confidence and understanding of my community each time I work, a corresponding gratitude enhances. That stated, I am usually found outside of work, easily starting multitudes of projects and activities that I can never seem to finish!
