Author Karen Piacentini, Owner, Fenton’s Open Book

Karen Piacentini has dedicated her life to books, making it a natural choice to open her own bookstore. For the past 15 years, she has been a proud part of the Fenton community, sharing her love of literature and bringing authors to the area. As a woman-owned business, the journey hasn’t always been easy, but with the support of a great staff, she has built a welcoming space for readers. A devoted mother of three grown children, Karen enjoys camping with her family and cruising the Caribbean. She has a lifelong passion for Dalmatians, having once shown them, and her daughter’s Dalmatian, Dovah, is a familiar presence at the bookstore. Beyond books, she serves on the City of Fenton’s Beautification Commission and plays an active role in community events like Witches Night.
