In this episode of the Watchung Booksellers Podcast, booksellers Asia Jannah and Nicole Ban chronicle their respective bookselling experience and share insight on the daily operations of working at Watchung Booksellers.
Asia Jannah was born and raised in Montclair, and has worked at Watchung Booksellers for a total of 9 years. She is currently the gift buyer for the flagship location. Her favorite genres include dark fiction, short stories, essays and memoirs. When she’s not at the bookstore arranging displays or inquiring about customer’s current reads, she enjoys knitting, crafting, and of course, reading.
Nicole Ban is a lifelong New Jersey resident who began her bookstore career fresh out of high school at B. Dalton. After a long standing tenure at Montclair Book Center, Nicole made the leap to Watchung Booksellers in 2006. She quickly established herself as the store’s resident problem-solver and tech trouble shooter, titles she holds to this day. Her favorite fiction genre is mysteries. Nicole lives in Montclair with her wife, two school-aged daughters, dog, and cat.
