    Kids books.

    Great place for books and goodies. They have a huge selection of books for all ages. The kids section is a good size with tons of books, and they have a huge section with toys, great if you're looking for a last minute gift!

    This Barnes & Noble has a nice layout. It's easy to find each section and they have a decent music selection with vinyl and CDs, too There are two floors and it's fun to browse through all of their journals and gift section. I went during the weekend and there were tons of people shopping- it looks like they get plenty of foot traffic. Was nice to see many kids and families- better than being on an iPad or phone all day.

    This one is located inside The Commons shopping center but connection is super spotty fyi! Beautiful store and one of the very few left. Happy this one still exists. This one has two floors and they have all the figures and toys upstairs. Kids section and anime stuff up there as well. The bottom floor has a gift section and all other books, etc. If you're a Harry Potter fan, they have a very nice selection upstairs that you can see as soon as you walk in since they have a header of the Hogwarts castle. Great/friendly staff, would definitely recommend checking this location out! IG: @ammysalamii

    It's a bit of a drive for me, but a good location in the sense that there's ample parking and other stores nearby. The store's selection is pretty good (especially on the 2nd floor), layout wasn't too cramped, and floor staff were attentive and offered to help us find books (we probably looked lost while browsing). Checkout was another thing. We were lucky there wasn't a queue that time, but the interaction with the cashier felt really rude. It's one thing to try to start a conversation and another thing to judge out loud each book a customer buys. Felt really snobby. I know I don't look like the usual demographic that shops in the area but I enjoy books and read from time to time

    My favorite B&N in SoCal. When I need to stop by a supercharger on the way up north I'll usually stop by here and grab a few books each visit. I was lucky enough to run into a fellow ARMY this most recent time to chat up how excited we are for Hobi's concert and for the entire team's return in June.

    It's a book store...and in The Commons at Calabasas. What's there not to like. The place is always pristine with large selections of every genre. There are plenty of people either roaming or behind the info desk to help you. Grab a book, order a drink or snack at the coffee shop inside, grab a table inside or outside and read your latest book. Great way to past time. Enjoy you are in Calabasas!

    Love shopping at Barnes and Noble. So happy to see this location open and working. Some locations closed and that breaks my heart. I love walking through the isles and looking for good reads. The selection here is amazing including the kids section. Lots of toys too. This store is big, always organized and fully stocked. There's also a cafe on the first floor. Grab yourself a cup of coffee and enjoy your time here, that's what I love to do. Great customer service and location. So much to do around the store.

    Is this spot open to read inside the bookstore or is it only pickup right now?

    Last time I was there it was open for browsing but I don't remember seeing any chairs to sit on to read

    I've always been saying what the village lacks are fun places to shop so that people have a reason…read moreto go there beyond just Costco and the various food locations. This store is exactly what I mean. I loved the open book in Northridge when it was on Tampa and still when it moved inside the mall. Was excited when this location opened. I am a sucker for old books and this place has ample with a really cool ambiance to it. Kinda like a nerdy library. I say that because they also have comics, collectibles and even have a section for banned books. As if you're buying something taboo. Staff is always friendly, place is organized so you know where to look, they always have some type of deal going on. So great value no matter what you buy. So if you're in the hunt for something to read, just skip Amazon for a change and support your local bookstore. Let's keep brick and mortar stores alive!

    Store was much larger than anticipated; amazing selection of classic literature, world history,…read moreancient philosophy, literary analysis, and contemporary fiction. All books, to my knowledge and memory, were sorted alphabetically by author last name. Prices were shockingly reasonable! It became too easy to rack up the total price; six books for fifty dollars! Perhaps it is an issue alone to compare, but one would not be able to get as many books of this quality at similar prices in bookstores like Barnes & Noble. I am unsure if the total price was altered by the "buy one, get one half off" sale that was active the day I purchased from The Open Book. I approached two staff members to see if they had a specific book available; the book was not in stock, but both staff members were very easy to approach, friendly, and genuinely helpful! I would recommend anyone to bear with the parking and traffic to check this shop out!

The store is very small, but it is completely filled with rare cool and amazing stuff. Great for gifts to someone and of course your self. I have been buying there for years. Chimes, incense, books, Buddhas, clothes, stones, jewelry, candles, and everything else you can think of. Everything that is related to being Zen and meditation. The ambulance is really cool because of the nature and Zenn feeling. The workers in the store are always very nice and polite. I strongly recommend you visiting this place for some very unique and rare gift for your loved ones.

It's clean, thoughtfully put together, and has a beautiful selection of books, crystals, oils, candles, incense, and jewelry. Definitely a great place to browse and take your time. The only thing that threw me off a bit was that the person at the front (near the spiral staircase entrance) was having a full dinner at the register when I walked in. I completely understand needing to eat, but it made the space feel a little less open for interaction. I noticed people, including myself, kind of just looked around quietly and moved on without asking questions or making purchases. I actually had a few things I was considering buying, but I didn't feel comfortable interrupting, so I ended up leaving without them. It might help to have someone cover the front or step away briefly during breaks so the space still feels welcoming and easy to engage with. Overall, it's a beautiful shop, just a small tweak in that area could really enhance the experience.
