    The mural at the entrance of Copperfish Books is gorgeous! A must-see for any bookworm, selfie taker or not.

    I wanted to check this book store out for the longest time because my friend worked there, and was always raving about it. She's as serious about books as I am, so I had to see what this place was all about. I'm happy to report that the parking was easy. I found a spot right in front of the store. Coming from Miami where it can be a real pain, that was a relief. Before you walk in, the outside of the building has this beautiful mural along the walls and entrance. I'd have to say it was the prettiest book store I've seen so far. When I went, my friend was working, and she gave me an unofficial tour of the place. After nosing through the aisles, I'm happy to say that it has a fantastic selection of books, both new and used! In the back, they had two carts of used/discount books where I found a sweet hardcover copy of Alex Haley's "Roots." The used/discount books were super affordable. The other section that I enjoyed was the local author section. I ended up purchasing a copy of Scott Marlowe's "The Cryptid Creatures of Florida" because I love funky Florida stories. As a stationary nerd, I very much enjoyed the greeting card section. Whoever is picking the cards, keep doing what you're doing! I wish there was a Copperfish Books in Miami. It was super mellow, full of good stuff, and a great place to find your next good read. If you live nearby or are passing by like I was, I highly recommend you take advantage and visit. I'd say it's FL's little literary jewel.

    This is probably one of the most beautiful B&N's I've seen. It's huge and it set up so nicely, so…read moreclean and neat and well-kept. They have a whole Starbucks cafe off to the side, which is always a lovely combo. Coffee & books? Yep, I'm there. Along with a wide sprawl of book genres, they have a lego section, puzzles and other board games, toys and fun things for the kiddos, and so much more. We spent probably close to an hour just walking around in here and enjoying it all, and it could've been even longer. The prices are still a little higher than is reasonable in my mind, but you have to expect that coming to a Barnes & Noble. They did have a few sales here when I came, though, and one was on some collector Harry Potter books which I couldn't resist. This is a great addition to the University Town Center area.

    Dude. I have written this review out numerous times since their grand opening, but nothing ever…read moregets posted. Fingers crossed this will stick. As a new model B&N, the set up is nice. It seems small, but it has a good layout with a decent selection for all age groups I am shopping for. I grew up on the stores that had stages in the kid space, multiple lounge areas to "test out" the book, and no WiFi so students couldn't use the the tables in the cafe for hours at a time. With this set up, unfortunately, it isn't as inviting as they used to be. Never had a bad trip, but never wanted to take my time perusing the shelves. If I do not see something immediately, back into the car we go. 08.06.2025

    Tried to find this place armed with the address and having read the two reviews showing…read more Unfortunately, I hadn't read the blurb given with the page, as it does show and address the fact that it is/was within the Fleamasters Flea Market. We went ahead and parked when we realized. However, after considerable walking and asking many different individuals, we never found this bookseller. We did have a few people tell us the only place they knew that had books was in the pavilion and we tried there too but only found another stall (different name) with very few books. It looks like this business may be closed. I would call a number to check but do not see one listed.

    A true gem of SW Florida. I can't believe it's not flowing with positive reviews…read more I've been living in SW Florida for almost a decade now, and I can say for sure this is THE BEST place to buy books around here, period. It has an abundant variety of titles for all tastes and ages, and you can't beat the prices (the owner will usually reduce the total price if you buy multiple books). The place is a little tight when it comes to space, but to me that only adds to its charm. Also, expect some dust on the books and, well, generally everywhere. Whether you're a local or just visiting, if you want to get away from the artificiality of online algorithms when it comes to recommendations about what to read next, give this great bookstore a chance. You won't regret it!
