Building a place of community in Pocatello—where books, ideas, and learning collide—has always been the driving force behind bringing the Hares & Hatters Bookshop to life. With years of books experience between them, Nicki and Jamie hope to share their love of reading with you! By supporting Hares & Hatters Bookshop you too can be part of growing the literature landscape in Pocatello.

Nicki Stanton believes that reading stories allows people to look through windows and step through doors into other lived experiences. The ability to understand another person’s experience is more important than ever. Nicki's bookshelf is filled with a lot of literary fiction, young adult fantasy, dystopian, and contemporary fiction. She spent eleven years helping people with disabilities get access to accommodations and now spends her time reading and writing, but mostly reading.
