They immediately split, my little two took a left to the young adult and youth room and my teen took a right for non-fiction. They offer a great selection of all books! We loved the sitting areas with big windows that overlook Glover Park. We purchased two books and the gentleman working had great conversation with my teen and I as he rang up our purchases. We look forward to many return visits!

Nestled in the heart of Marietta Square, The Reading Attic offers a delightful escape for…read morebibliophiles. While parking can be a bit of a challenge during peak hours, the effort is well worth it. Upon entering, visitors are greeted by an inviting space, with separate rooms dedicated to various genres, allowing for easy browsing. There's a cozy couch positioned by a giant bay window which offers not only a comfortable reading nook but also a picturesque view of the square, adding to the overall charm of the bookstore. The selection of books is commendable, catering to a diverse range of tastes and interests. However, it's worth noting that the staff, though friendly, could benefit from more diversity. Nonetheless, their warmth and willingness to assist customers enhance the shopping experience. Also the bathroom was clean! Overall, The Reading Attic exudes a welcoming atmosphere, making it a must-visit destination for book lovers.

This place seemed a little sketchy from the outside; there was a messy cart of "free books" that…read moreseemed abandoned. Upon entry the place was well lit and buzzing with excitement for the author who was doing a signing. I wasn't paying close attention and didn't realize what it was at first, but there was so much animated conversation that I assumed it was a book club that was really enjoying themselves. It made the recovery from the free book cart mess easy to recover from. The staff was all super friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to search for titles and authors I was looking for and were happy to add more books to my pile (*wink). The only downer was that the shelves had no obvious organization and it was hard to shop on your own. Nothing is labeled consistently and I couldn't tell where one section ended and another began. One section even had a pink sticky note with a hand-written label. The staff also didn't keep a proper inventory and half of books the computer said they had were no where to be found. Bottom line is that this place was welcoming and had good prices. They do not buy books but will offer in-store credit for books you no longer want. Check this place out.

It is also a little hard to shop here -- it's not always clear what is new and what is used. There were new-looking books in with clearly used books but not everything had a price on it so it was hard to know what I was finding. Otherwise, the sections were clearly labeled and the books were in almost perfect alphabetical order. I can see how this place can establish itself as a local hangout for bibliophiles, attending all the hosted book club meetings. It just isn't a place I will seek out to go shopping at again.

Overall the layout makes sense and it's easier for me to bring the kids here than pay full price at B&N down the street and the experience is pretty comparable. I also like that you can call them and ask that they hold a book for you- great for Moms running low on time who need to get a book for their kids school project or required reading (speaking from experience here). The only con I will mention is what others have mentioned as well. Don't come here with books to sell assuming you'll get a lot of money for them. Come here with the books you were going to donate anyways. I do wish they had a better trade in program.

I really didn't expect much. However, I left my items and they gave me a receipt, and promised to text me when the evaluation was done. My ID was checked many times So they did text me. Since I wanted cash and no store credit I earned $1.97 instead of $3.54. What I learned from this is, that bartering might work for some people, if they are trading in things. This is not for me. Store was clean and well organized. Next time I will donate things.

The amount of books in this store was unbelievable, and the variety was great. They have some bookmarks and trinkets for sale as well. At the back of the store was two little boys reading books. That was a nice sight for a sore eye. Seems like this is a very busy and popular gem in the middle of downtown Acworth. They host events like game nights, so check their website. This store is really worth the visit. I had the pleasure of talking to Stasey, the owner, she was super nice while answering my questions about what books I could sell or trade. This store is worth a visit. Maybe on my next visit, I will be introduced to the cat.

Nice bookstore. I…read morebelieve all (or at least most) of the books are used. The books that I have bought have been in wonderful condition. You can negotiate the price but so far when they've thrown a price at me I was happy to pay what they asked. They sell comic books, games, puzzles, DVDs and more. The shop is off Allatoona Gateway (used to be Glade Road) - behind Taco Bell, Pizza Hut & KFC. Plenty of parking - the shopping center is not usually busy. The owners are friendly, fun and helpful.

Yes Amazon sells it for a lot less and the sections on Amazon can be better...but not always... For example if you're looking for hardcore literature Like Ann Radcliffe or Horace Walpole then Barnes and Noble is the place to go. Amazon has it as well but their selection is sketchy...they may not offer you the best edition out there. If you're looking for Business books then Amazon is a better option because I don't think this particular Barnes & Noble's business books selection is as good as it could be. On the other hand they have a pretty good manga and young adult selection....I imagine those books are more popular than say Originals by Adam Grant.....They had signed copies of John Green's latest Turtles All the Way Down....and even though I said I wasn't going to buy anything... I ended up taking home Haruki Murakami's book Absolutely on Music: Conversation with Seiji Ozawa. (Ozawa is my favorite living conductor so I couldn't resist even though Amazon has it for $4 dollars cheaper but I figured heck I want this and I want it now...) Anyway now a days when people chose books over all other forms of activities such as the internet, Facebook or even Yelp....it's always a good thing....

TL;DR - Abhorrent customer service, avoid if you can…read more Went this morning, and the following happened: 1.) Customer service lady at the check out area greeted folks behind me but ignored me. 2.) I was looking for a book and happened to ask another employee for help at the exact time that another elderly lady asked for help. I mentioned she could go first and was ignored by both. 3.) I went to the check out area for help, and while she was checking out, she was also speaking to another employee about random things like the Knick's game, being from New York, etc. etc. while I stood waiting to be helped. I walked around to waste time before returning after the cashier employee was finally free. She asked if I was ready to check out and I replied that I needed help with finding a book. She motioned towards the first employee I had asked help from, and I told her that he had been helping (and still was) an elderly lady for a while. She then told me that the other employee who was still talking to the customer about the Knicks could help. I stood around awkwardly while they continued to talk as it was obvious I was waiting for them to finish so I could ask a question (we were all standing about 5 feet from eachother). After standing for a few minutes, I was done. I returned the books I was ready to purchase back where they came from and proceeded towards the exit. At that point, the customer who had been talking to the employee about the Knicks was leaving, and the cashier lady grabbed the employee's attention by stating, "This young lady needed help with finding a book." I responded, "No, I don't need help, I'm done." and forcibly opened the door, walking out. I overheard the Knicks-obsesssed employee say "Oh my!" or something to that effect as I left. There are too many stores around here for me to pay money for being ignored. Go elsewhere, preferably independent.
