There is plenty of seating available, including study books and a large table area for puzzles. Snacks and drinks are available.

One thing that struck me as amazing was the membership you can get! It's $10/mo or $99/yr and you get 40% off all of their bestselling books (rotates weekly), 20% off everything else, and free drip coffee! If you're a big book buyer, that is soooo worth it! Or if you just love visiting coffee shops, the coffee would be worth it! They have several little tables and chairs around where you can perch to do some work. I just love how local everything is in here. Some art gifts, coffee table books, non-fiction, etc. They have a great website, too!

Thank goodness, MK quickly recommended two books and I'm currently reading the first with great interest. If you're new to the area, or in Birmingham for business travel, please stop by the Little Professor Bookshop - you won't be disappointed. Also, there's plenty of free parking and fun places to eat in Homewood where the bookshop is located.

5+ if I could, I only wish I lived closer to Jim Reed Books, they have a fantastic collection of…read morebooks, and I have been able to find some authors that are difficult to find in the U.S. even on Amazon. Mr. Reed is a fantastic resource for books and movies, he recommended a movie from an author I was looking for, I watched the whole movie straight through, the next time I was in he had a couple novels by that author. Highly recommended...

This book store is jammed packed with books, collectibles, nostalgia, and love tucked away in ever corner! There were books I read as a child that brought back many great memories when I saw them. The owner is such a lovely guy and very helpful! I could have spent a whole day and too much money lol because when it comes to books I have no self control. I was able to escape with spending only a little over $100 on some great books. Will definitely return!

[Out-of-Towner Review]…read more The name had me swooning before I even arrived. This independent bookstore is nestled in a non-descript shopping center with a variety of restaurants and shops. As I pulled into the parking lot, I didn't have many expectations. However, when I walked through the door, I was quickly proven incorrect! TYB is a cute, quaint bookstore that is filled with a great amount of books by genre and for a variety of readers. The staffer that was there was extremely helpful and happy to share some ideas for the book for me to purchase. I was in need of a book for my work travel, since I'd accidentally read my book too fast and did not bring up a backup book (rookie mistake). I perused the romance section, new releases, sale section, staff picks, and every nook and cranny of the bookstore. I finally settled on a new release, which was actually a signed copy -- bonus for me! I also snagged a really cute book for me (soon to be) nephew, as I've been building out his library as I've been building out mine with my independent book store visits! Overall, this is a great store for Birmingham, as they don't have a huge local bookstore options. If I'm back in the area, I'll definitely stop by and grab a book...or three! Exactly what you'd want out of a local, quaint independent bookstore.

Just yesterday I was informed that the item was not available and that the order would not be fulfilled. Now I have tons of spam mail from this company.

Unfortunately in addition to all of the new email spam I now have to scramble to get my 5 year old a present. Thanks a-0 books-a-million, what a garbage company.

So much more to offer and they rotate stock (and or just sell it really quickly). If you're into comics, this store needs to be on your list of places to check out. Variants you will only be able to find online (maybe ebay) are displayed in a few different areas. Well worth a trip in to check them out. Always pop in here for a few minutes when we are in the area.
