    Good selection of book, helpful staff and organized. Love the location being at Smithfield crossing…read morefor convenience with all the shops/places to eat around. They have a Starbucks on site too. Plenty of parking. Bathroom was gross tho. Amazon pricing can be competitive as well but I like being able to walk in and flip thru the books before I decide to buy. Can be hard to track down staff if they are helping others. Love the kids area, good place to take the kiddos for some interactive fun.

    Barnes & Noble Booksellers is the largest retail bookseller in the United States. The Company has…read moreapproximately 600 bookstores across the United States, as well as its online bookstore at BN.com, the NOOK Digital business which offers both eBooks and an audio book subscriptions service, the SparkNotes educational service, and stationery and gift retailer Paper Source. This Barnes & Noble Booksellers is located in The Crossing at Smithfield. The Crossing at Smithfield is home to an exciting combination of nationally-known retailers. There is also plenty of parking. The store is very organized and you can spend hours here looking at everything. I reserved an item online for pick up at the store. There was an option to pay now online or pay later in store. Within 10 minutes of submitting the order, I received an email that the item I reserved online is now ready for pick up in store and I had 3 days to pick it up. If it is not picked up by this date, then it will be returned to the shelf for other customers to purchase. The next day, I headed to the store. I went to the check out counter and told the staff member that I had reserved an item online for pick up. She asked me for my name and located the item on the shelf behind the counter. After purchasing the item, she also handed me a coupon for $1 off any Starbucks handcrafted beverage grande or larger at the Barnes & Noble Café during the month of October. The Barnes & Noble Café is located on the right of the entrance of the store. The staff member who took my order was friendly and accepted the coupon. The iced Pumpkin Cream Chai was very good.

    I first came across Twenty Stories after going to Aleppo Sweets right next door on Ives Street. I…read morecame back to Twenty Stories on Thursday, July 25th. When I walked in, Alexa was packing books and told me she was getting their teal vintage bookmobile (love the color) ready for Newport Folk Fest. I informed her I only wanted to take a look at the cards and Shorthand notebooks. She said as long as I didn't mind the mess, I can take a look. The store is spacious. By the front (cash register) is the card wall and the notebooks section (LEUCHTTURM1917 notebooks, Moleskine notebooks, and Shorthand notebooks.) I was so excited to see that Twenty Stories carried Shorthand products when I had first popped into the store. I have a few items from Shorthand and their quality is superb. Shorthand is a stationary company in Los Angeles specializing in creating tools for productivity and creativity - notebooks and office supplies that strike a balance between being functional and aesthetically pleasing. I purchased a lavender reporter (a compact notebook). The cover is letterpressed with Title and Date lines. At checkout, I was given a free Twenty Stories bookmark. Also don't forget to check-in on Yelp to get the offer - 10% off your purchase. I didn't use it this time, but will definitely use it next time. I learned that every month, the two owners, Alexa Trembly and Emory Harkins, hand-select twenty titles to feature in their store. They sift through hundreds of titles to find the most inspiring, innovative, and thought-provoking books out there, and at the center of the curation is a diverse list of authors, themes, and publishers. They also bring their bookmobile to different events. If you are in the area, you should check out Twenty Stories if you are a bookworm or a stationary aficionado.

    I could not find the location. First I tried this location on Ives, and then I went to the stores…read morewebsite and used that to find a location a few doors down. Another business was firmly there. It was like an incredibly cold and disappointing scavenger hunt that I also lost.
