Synopsis

Welcome to No Page Unturned, the downtown used bookshop that has just what you’re looking for. The cats? They’re up for adoption through the local shelter, making a temporary home here where all the friendly book people hang out. You can read 𝑆ℎ𝑒𝑙𝑣𝑒 𝑈𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟 𝐶 to find out all about the O’Malleys, who run the shop, and Kris, a boy who’s being fostered and who ends up being a big part of the bookstore, too. The people here are kind, funny, and warm, just like they are in the novel. We think you’ll love browsing and visiting, so grab a book, invite one of the cats to curl up next to you on the big red sofa, and enjoy!

“This novel is uplifting and cozy. The sentiments are deep and genuine; there is no cheesy greeting card pathos here. It has an impact on your emotions.”

“I thoroughly enjoyed this book and found myself very conscious of a smile on my face as I read it. The themes make you feel good, and a fun and wholesome tale unfolds at a pleasing pace. It's not a thriller to leave you on the edge of your seat, but it always leaves you curious about what happens next. If you want to escape for a while from the sad realities of the day and read something light and fun, treat yourself to this happy tale of cats, kids, and good folk. You won't be disappointed.”

À propos de l'auteur

Jenny Kalahar was born in the state of Washington and she and her four older brothers were raised in Grass Lake, Michigan. She married Patrick, a used and rare bookseller, and they had open bookshops in Michigan and Ohio until moving to live and work in an old Indiana schoolhouse. They now sell books online and Patrick restores and repairs the tattered and torn volumes sent to him from around the country. They are both members of Last Stanza Poetry Association. Jenny is the author of two novels in her Turning Pages series - Shelve Under C: A Tale of Used Books and Cats, and its sequel, The Find of a Lifetime: Another Tale of Used Books and Cats. Both are based on their experiences in Ohio where they fostered cats from the local shelter in their bookshop, finding new homes for more than fifty cats over the years. When not selling books or writing, Jenny avoids doing housework; plays her piano moderately well; reads; walks their terrier, Weegee; pets their cats; plays the bells and xylophone in a community band; and explores dusty flea markets and interesting antique shops.
