About the Author
Carla Runner began her career in property management at just 20-years-old, working her way up from a maintenance clerk to managing properties with over 700 apartments. After dedicating 36 years to the industry, she retired at 56 and pursued her passion for baking, launching a successful pie and cookie business.
In 1990, Carla married Mark, and together they balanced demanding careers while raising their three children—Angela, Jordan, and Jesse. Throughout the years, their faith remained a central part of their lives, as they regularly attended church and sang on the worship team for three decades.
Now enjoying retirement in the beautiful Sequatchie Valley of Tennessee, Carla and Mark spend their days hiking and taking scenic motorcycle rides. They share their home with Mark’s mother, Bonnie, and have always had a soft spot for Sheltie rescue dogs.

Store Description

We first started out as ?The Paperback Exchange,? a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become ?PBShop.? This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book.
