This is not that…read more This Barnes & Noble is at Harrisonburg Crossing and is typically overpriced like every other one of these stores. It's a nice place to hang out and read books - especially looking through the travel books, but anything from here is not easy on the wallet, including the girls you meet in the cafe.

This is probably the closest book store to Bryce Resort! While in Harrisonburg for some shopping -…read morepicked up a few books and other reading material for the week at Bryce Resort.

They have a large parking lot with food trucks during the week. It's super easy to find just off the interstate and just off campus by the ISAT/Festival side past the Basketball complex. I was able to find loads of goodies today for myself and friends and family. They have hats, t-shirts, sweaters, yard flags, mugs, cups, bottles, jerseys, jewelry, pet stuff, baby stuff, alumni stuff, sports stuff.... you get it. I saw a lot of Greek stuff in the back section in a side room laid out on sale (and only there) so maybe they're getting out of that business... It's locally owned and run by a JMU family (goooooo Dukes) and has a great vibe and some awesome items you can't find at the bookstore. Make sure to stop in before you head out of town to get some purple and gold goodies.

Buy all your JMU attire here. The prices are a few dollars cheaper than on JM University.read more

I love this place. I haven't been in a few years since I avoid Harrisonburg, but when I was in high…read moreschool (and almost completely broke) I would walk to Downtown Books some days after school. The owner was always friendly and didn't seem to mind when I took an hour or more to pick out ten books that cost less than $3. He had an entire wall of used books that started at ten cents. I still have a ton of the books I bought from him; they all have the price stamped on the pages at the top. He also puts neat free posters, books, and postcards outside his store on a card table and rack. A friend of mine still has a picture of a fish in a gumball machine that we got in middle school--and we're 25 now! Go here. Buy books. It's a small store, but it's totally worth the trip.

The guy who runs this is a quiet but friendly type and there's a huge range of stuff here to peruse. Don't miss the hilarious and sometimes risque mixed postcard collection! Wish they'd have a Facebook presence and keep fans updated about what they have in stock, etc. Bring a checkbook!

When you walk in, the first thing you see, is long boxes of back issues. To your right is current issues, trades and Youth Comics.

It's a Comicbook Shop that sells roll playing items and figures plus they have tournaments. Check their website or contact them for details.
