We stopped in while exploring the Great River Road and Driftless region. There are literally books everywhere, in the best possible way! The books are organized in sections with signs labeling the genres. There is an "antique" aroma, which adds to the cool ambience! I planned to just look around while my gf shopped, and I ended up buying four books, priced $5-$6! Make it a point to visit here whether you're a book person or not!

Immediately when you walk in the door you are met with the scent of thousands of books and an eclectic decor that your eyes just can't help but want to scan every inch of the place. We spent over 2 hours perusing all the books, and could have easily spent another 2 hours in the shop. It was completely worth the 3 hour drive. I can't wait until we can return!

I stayed past 7 pm, which is when the mall closes daily. However, this bookstore closes daily at 8 pm. Awesome! This B&N is at the food court. You can enter the store without going through the mall. I had just finished eating dinner at the food court, so I took the mall entrance. The selection of reduced books and other items is this store's strength. I picked up a Sip by S'well bottle for $10, which is unheard of. One of their bottles that keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for many hours normally goes for $20, at least. I needed one to fill up at the airport and loved the marble design that I got. I gravitated towards the Pusheen section. The plushies were adorable. I had some willpower and did not get any. There are a lot of plushies at this store, from BT21, to Harry Potter. I loved seeing them all. My favourite discovery was the music section. You can still listen to CDs here. I haven't seen that setup in a decade. I loved looking at the records (vinyl) and turntables. I was so happy. This store is huge. It has a full cafe with seating. I enjoyed my time browsing. I had to figure out where to pay. The payment area by the mall was unstaffed. There was an information desk smack in the middle of the store. Nearby was the second payment area. I had the nicest woman at the checkout. She found my name in the system after she got my phone number. If you sign up for a B&N membership, you get 15% off everything. I tend to shop here often that this membership has paid for itself and more. She placed my water bottle in a plastic bag and wished me a nice evening. I reciprocated and left the store, heading to my car through the mall. I love this store in my old stomping ground. I will definitely return and maybe stay a bit longer than an hour next time. (35)

Located in a tiny outpost on the Mississippi on the Wisconsin/Iowa border, a sweet little picturesque town of maybe 1,000 people. But this store would be a find in any big city with a reputation for having lots of book lovers. History - American, Iowan, Native American, wars, rare medical texts - literature, from Steven King to Basho's poetry. Kids' books of all kinds. Poetry, fiction, theology and religion. It was incredible to find something of this quality here. I bought a two volume set of Lincoln's speeches and writings, but if I lived in the area, this would become a favorite and frequent haunt. The owner was courteous and knowledgeable, too - a former airline pilot, if I recall, and he has wonderful taste. If you're a bibliophile who lives in or is passing through the area, it's worth a detour.
