Their greeting card selection is really cute. The friendly staff is always ready to help me find a book or offer a reading suggestion. If you haven't been in the past few years, B&N started a loyalty program in 2023 to make its prices more competitive. For free, you can earn "stamps" that result in discounts (currently $5 off for every 10 stamps earned), and for a reasonable yearly fee you can upgrade to be a Premium member and earn 10% off everything every day. As an avid reader with a family of readers, it is totally worth it, and (do the math!) usually cheaper than competitors (*always* cheaper when I'm reading more obscure stuff). If you enjoy earning free stamps, it is worth signing up for the B&N newsletter to keep an eye out for double/triple points days. They always have deals on bestsellers and daily BOGO 50% tables, so you have a new selection of deals to hunt through each time you visit.

Thanks for staring us down creepily as we proceeded outside the store with DAGGERS coming out of your eyes.

Discovering new bookstores during my travels has become a new passion of mine, so when I checked…read morefor indie bookstores in the DFW area, Talking Animals Books was one of the first to pop up. From the few photos and the name, I thought it would be more of a children's bookstore but I was so wrong. As soon as you enter, the amazing staff welcomes you and is eager to help you find any books you are looking for. Right at the entrance they had the fantasy and romance section which is a personal favorite, and I immediately found a couple of books that have been on my list. I absolutely LOVED that they had self published books from indie authors, which is so rare to find at any local bookstore (you usually have to wait for them to be re-published by a publisher to find them anywhere besides Amazon). They also have a children's section which is super cute, and I found a couple of things for my little one. On the top floor they have a couple of couches for you to hang out and a section of used books. Frankly, this was one of the best bookstores I found in the DFW area, and I can't wait to come back and support them!

Spoiler Alert: Don't come to this place expecting to pull up to a house that has books in it!…read more That was exactly what I did and was shocked when I pulled up to a leased corner spot of a large building. Not to be disappointed or discouraged, I forged ahead inside, only to be completely delighted! Inside it really did feel like a house with books. The ambiance was fun, thoughtful and creative, and actually brought pages of the books within to life. The service here was friendly and warm. The young lady at the counter greeted us warmly and was helpful answering the many questions we had. If you are into bookstores, this is a "don't miss it!".

Personally, I love stores with personality. You know the place, where there are little built ins for sitting, and slanted walls, and a wall of vintage books designed as art that make you stop and just want to take it in. Thats this place.... Just charming. The kids section is pure magic! Whomever designed it did it thoughtfully. There's a top shelf that really paints the picture. It has an umbrella with clouds on it, along with crowns and swords. It just makes you want to hang out in this room all day. And this room is filled with stories waiting to be told. Books waiting to be read. Chairs waiting for children to sit in them. Just lovely!

It's obviously a bit smaller than a standalone store but it was still quite large for a mall store. I guess the malls in Texas just have a lot of space. There was a pretty impressive bargain book section in the back. I saw the usual standalone sections but I was pleasantly surprised to see a wall of sale fiction books, and there were a ton of titles. I didn't have a lot of time to browse, otherwise I might have grabbed a book or two! There is also a lot of miscellaneous fun gifts here like journals, mugs, toys, etc.

I called to see about getting my grandson's Bible repaired. It looked like he had played a few…read moregames of basketball with it. The back was off, but the inside Bible itself was intact. The price quoted was a lot with a 10 week wait! But after they explained what repair entailed and what to look for when purchasing a BIble that lasts, I understood. I didn't get the name of the person that spoke to me, but she had excellent customer service skills and she used them, taking time to explain the process so very kindly. I decided to just buy the kid a new Bible (one not glued, but sown together, her recommendation) but if I ever need a book repair service, they will surely get my business. And, I'll be sure to pass on their info. Customer service is a lost art, but not at The Book Doctor!

If you want a quick-and-dirty commercial fix, this is not your place. But if you are looking for a European time machine that will take a beloved book back to what it was or even better, this is the spot for you. We came to the Book Doctor with a small devotional, quite honestly a lost cause with no cover or binding and several severely damaged pages. We were hoping for some sort of cover and binding to preserve it since it is of great sentimental value and over 90 years old. What we received back was a gorgeous gem, a true made-to-order family heirloom. Not only was the cover beautiful, the binding is a work of art and pages we thought were lost forever were delicately and expertly restored. We stand amazed. Again, if you expect to do it on the cheap and have it by next week, forget it. But if the book in question matters to you and you budget for time and money, plan in advance, make an appointment with one of their experts, then expect the best. These are artisans who will pour all their skill and experience into your valued piece and devote entire days solely to its restoration.

When I presented this for return just two weeks later, the store refused the return.

I was quoted store policy which, in this case, was not an option. I am stuck with a $30 piece of junk. AVOID THIS CHAIN.
