Meet our staff:

Owner:  Gayle Harris

Gayle and her husband, Ron, have owned Books and Crannies for 13 years.  Gayle has a full time job, and is in the store on Monday and Tuesday from 4 to 6, and on Saturdays.  Her favorite author is Shirley Rousseau Murphy, followed by Dean Koontz, Brian Jacques, Richard Bach, Michael Connelley, and John Dunning. 

Ruth

Ruth began working for Ron and Gayle shortly after they opened Books & Crannies.  Ruth and her husband, Michael raise Haflingers on their place outside Terrell.  She is available on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday to help you find what you want to read.  Ruth has a memory that is nothing short of awesome, and her memory banks are filled with information about authors and books! 

Lucy

Lucy enjoys talking with our customers, and “Books and Crannies” gives her a break from her very successful sewing business that she does in her home!  Lucy is available on Tuesday.

Jennifer

Jennifer is the newest member of our team, but is an avid reader and booklover!  She can definitely help you pick out books and authors to entertain you.  Also, check out her line of hand crafter gourd products on sale exclusively at Books and Crannies!

Maddie

Maddie is the love of the bookstore!  She has the customers, and most especially “our mailman”, Jonathan, wrapped around her little paw!  Maddie is in the store every day to keep an eye on us and visit with our customers! If you are feeling down, a visit with Maddie will perk up your spirits.  She is glad to help!
