A Novel Idea Bookstore

Established in 1991, A Novel Idea Bookstore in downtown Lincoln Nebraska has been a haven for generations of readers. The bi-level shop is full of used, rare and out-of-print books - everything from paperback mysteries to leather bound books signed by presidents. Tops of the custom-made shelves are carved to look like leaves. Eddy & Charlie, the resident felines, often sleep in the front windows but love to snuggle and play with customers. Owner Cinnamon Dokken and manager Katherine Bergstrom realize that the cats are the most popular staffers - but the humans are better at recommending books!
