Maple City resident Jenny Puvogel, a longtime employee at the Cottage Book Shop in Glen Arbor, is now the new owner of the charming small business as of April 1.
Since taking the reins, Puvogel has had help with learning how to manage the bookstore from her good friend and former shop owner, Sue Boucher. In the process, Boucher is staying on as the book buyer and as a mentor to Puvogel while she adjusts to her role amid a busy season.
So far, Puvogel said it’s been smooth sailing though, especially with the help of other longtime staff that have been employed at the shop since Barbara and Frank Siepker first operated the business more than two decades ago.
