OUR
TEAM

Briars & Brambles Books is a dream come true for owner & part-time Windham resident, Jen Schwartz. Jen has combined her love of books (BA in English and MA in school administration) - she’s a former English teacher and school dean - with her experience as a long-time library volunteer and past library board president to create an inviting, knowledgeable and professional atmosphere.

​

Jen’s hand-picked team includes:

  • A retiree who adores golfing and is a rare-book aficionado

  • A self-trained animal rescuer and chicken farmer, who is also a new mom

  • A home-school mother and teacher

  • A nature lover and aspiring photographer

​

The Briars & Brambles team understands that being a bookseller involves so much more than simply “selling books” and is committed to providing unparalleled personal attention.

​

The Briars & Brambles team takes pride in offering personal suggestions and regularly updates the Staff Picks section of the store.
