    We stopped by BAM! to look for mugs and Disney items. They are located next to Neiman Marcus Last Call. They have a pretty good selection of Disney backpacks as well as Marvel Lounge Fly items. The prices are very reasonable too. There are also lots of stuffed animals, clothing, books, cards, toys. It is a large, well--laid-out store with nice decor. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. It will remind you of a smaller Barnes and Noble bookstore but newer with more variety. We look forward to going back there again!

    This is a huge bookstore located inside the Sawgrass Mill Outlet mall. I have been to many other Books-A-Million stores since many of my friends are avid book readers. The company was founded in 1917 as a street corner newsstand in Florence, Alabama. Today, Books-A-Million has grown to become a familiar bookstore chain in the Southeastern United States, and the second largest book retailer in the nation. Based in Birmingham, Alabama, the company currently operates more than 260 stores in 32 states and the District of Columbia. Books-A-Million stores like this one in Sunrise, range from 4,000 to 30,000 square feet and provide an expansive selection of books, magazines, bargain books, collectible supplies, toys, technology and gift departments, as well as special category shops within the store. It's such a pleasure to shop here...the amount of options for gifts, books and records is amazing and the employees are always walking around to see if you need any help.

    A strong competition with Barnes and Nobles I guess. This is a smaller version but packed with books from every genre. Lots of scary and best seller books on the racks. Plenty of plush toys and books in the Kids section. Huge magazine wall too. T- shirt area to the left and a good size check out area to the right. Book prices are decent.

    Plenty of magazines here.

    I am in Florida every few weeks and usually wind up in Sawgrass Mills Mall for a shopping trip and a fun lunch at the food court. I really like my perusing experience through 'Books a Million.' I have been here many times and never know what new item (or book) I am going to find. This shop is big...really big and very bright. It's an inviting atmosphere. Their team members are also very friendly and helpful. They sell a lot more than books. The front of the store is filled with a plethora of plushies, knick knacks, posters, and memorabilia stuff. There are the standard tables of best sellers, but most of the books are towards the back. It is a surprisingly big store. I think of it as a Barnes and Noble on one level without the coffee cafe. Prices are pretty much same in most book stores. They have their deals if you join their club or buy multiple items. They also have quite the magaize collection. I always wonder if they have every magazine published. It's a hug display of everything about everything. The store is well maintained and there always seems to be a team member close by. Always a fun stop at this location. KUDOs to the team at Books-A-Million in the Sawgrass Mills Mall.

    Books-A-Million it is basically the younger version of Barnes & Noble. While both of them sell a lot of the same things Books-A-Million always seems to be more current when it comes to the items they sell. Not only do they sell books, hence the name, but they sell action figures, trinkets, comic books and vinyl records. The very front of the store is loaded with pop culture items such as Funko Pops, shirts with cool and funny designs on them, even plushies that are based around horror movie characters that are quite adorable. The layout is easy to navigate and if you need anything you can ask anything wonderful staff members here who will go out of their way to find an item you need. The variety of comic books they have here is surprisingly fast and what is cool is they are collections of a multitude of issues so you don't have to buy each issues separately you can buy one book that will come with 6 or 7 issues depending on what you were looking for! The prices here for some of the items are a little ridiculous though and that is the reason why I'm knocking off the star. For the exact same item that you can find on Amazon or a warehouse store such as Walmart the items they have here are five to six dollars more. Other than that one little issue I always love coming in here and just walking around because I always have new items that are funny and cool to look at! They also have all the new release books and a variety of candy and knickknacks to look at

    Anytime I'm at the Sawgrass mall I need to stop here so I can see all of the fun little Trinkets and goodies they have as well as pick up a new book to read! The location is very large and everything is laid out perfectly and easy to find. All of the pop culture items such as Funko Pops, t-shirts, plush items and even fun candles and candy are located in the very front of the store. They also have comics as well as vinyl records and calendars....oh yeah and books lol! The prices here are very understandable and sometimes even being a little bit cheaper than Barnes & Noble which is a good plus because it is also closer to me than Barnes & Noble. The staff here is very friendly and we'll go out of the way if you are looking for an item in particular and will even help you look for it online in case you need to order it from there. They always have all of the hot new books that have just been released and they are always having some amazing deals such as up to half off best seller books that they leave near the front of the store on a few parts for infants in the center.

    I was in Sawgrass Mills Mall and saw Book a Million. I have seen it a thousand times, but never had the time to go in a browse. This place reminds me of a Borden's books I used to shop at when I worked in New Jersey forever ago, so nostalgia factor was high. They sell a lot more than books. The front of the store is a cacophony of plushies, knick knacks, posters, and memorabilia stuff. There are tables with best sellers, bit most of the books are towards the back. It is a surprisingly big store. Prices are the same in pretty much every book store, they had a few percentage off books and merch, but all the stuff at front are a little pricey for my liking. Still I got me a polemon plush. The store is somewhat neat, the front is chaos, but where books are is well organized. Unfortunately we see less and less of these stores thanks to the era of digital everything, but it is still nice to hold an actual book in hand once in a while. This store is a great stop for that.

    This store was very clean and had a good stock on books. It wasn't too crowded so you could walk easily.

    As far as a comic store goes, this place pretty much checks off all the boxes you want. They carry…read morecomic books, graphic novels, action figures, artwork, collectibles & the list goes on. They have a huge amount of space inside their store & they utilize every inch. I like how their sections are relatively organized by category, although it can get a bit overwhelming with just how much they have. Everywhere you look there's display cases loaded with figures & bookshelves filled out. They have the best selection of comic books in south Florida, by far. When it comes to quantity & variety they have a great offering. Horror, superheroes, sci-fi, anime; they have some of everything. They keep a nice stock in their weekly release section & carry a lot of sought-after series. While they don't carry every cover variant, they do a good job at having at least a couple for most issues. The workers are usually pretty friendly. They offer help looking for items in their massive store & will point you in the right direction if you have any questions. I've never once had a bad experience in all the years I've been visiting. As good as they are, I have 2 complaints. First off, they're sometimes a bit overpriced. Whether it be an action figure or certain comic, there's been times where I've found them pricing things $2-$15 over market value. While get it's a business, I hate finding something here only to realize I can get it online cheaper. I'm ALWAYS for supporting local businesses but unfortunately it dissuades that. Lastly, sometimes I'll look for a series to start & they'll only have issues #2 & on. While it's not that big of a problem, I always grab issue #1 before any others so this'll cause me to skip out. Usually, however, this doesn't happen often. Overall, Tate's is the place for all your comic & collectible needs. There's not much more to ask for considering their good service, up-to-date selections & large variety. Also, be sure to check out their art gallery upstairs. They carry tons of stickers, prints, originals & crafts from local artists!

    From a tiny shop to an Eisner Award-winning giant, Tate's Comics is Florida's comic book cathedral…read more Walking into Tate's Comics for the first time is one of those life-altering, jaw-to-the-floor moments -- and for me, that was over 20 years ago. I still remember "Old Man Tate" greeting people with that mix of humor, knowledge, and genuine warmth that made you feel like you weren't just walking into a comic shop, you were walking into a community. He was a real gem of a man, an educator in his own right, and the heartbeat of the place. I still miss him. But here's the beauty: his son has carried the mantle and turned Tate's into nothing less than a comic book Mecca. What started as a small neighborhood shop has exploded into what is hands-down the best comic book store in the state of Florida -- and yes, I'd put it up against most in the country too. Don't just take my word for it: Tate's won the Will Eisner Spirit of Comics Retailer Award, basically the Oscar for comic shops. That's how legendary this place is. The store itself is massive, sprawling, and beautifully curated. Comics, graphic novels, manga, collectibles, action figures, statues, vinyl toys, rare finds -- it's like a nerd's cathedral, filled with treasures in every aisle. You could spend hours here and still miss something. The staff? Friendly, helpful, and never gatekeep-y. Whether you're a hardcore collector, a casual reader, or just holiday shopping for that "special geek in your life," they make you feel welcome. When it comes to value, Tate's is unbeatable. Sure, you can buy comics or toys online, but here you get fair prices, expert advice, and the thrill of discovering something new on the shelves. From single-issue comics to high-end collectibles, they strike that perfect balance of competitive pricing and curated quality. The fact that you can walk in with twenty bucks and leave happy -- or drop a couple hundred on a rare statue -- shows the range they cover. It's proof that value isn't just about price; it's about the experience of shopping in a place where every dollar feels well spent. It's also a great spot for holiday shopping. Where else can you grab a signed graphic novel, a rare toy, and a quirky enamel pin all in one place? It's basically Santa's workshop if Santa was obsessed with Batman, Funko Pops, and Gundam models. If I had one wish, it'd be for them to host more events -- comic signings, meetups, gaming nights. That sense of community was always the soul of Tate's, and while the shop is still thriving, those moments made it magical. Tate's Comics is more than a store. It's history, it's family, it's a legacy. Old Man Tate laid the foundation, his son built the empire, and the rest of us are lucky enough to shop there. Come for the comics, stay for the legacy, and leave knowing you just visited a place where heroes don't just live on the page -- they built the shop.
