Artemis I know I'm not spelling her name right. She is the manger I come from Muncie & I go to…read moreBarnes & Nobles because of the atmosphere that they have given me since I was a child. I have a lot of criterion's ordered & she is of course making sure that I get them all. Because they all come in at different times. & they work with you here & make sure you get the stuff you want. I'm always so happy in this store. I drive far to just spend time here still. Barnes & Nobles one of the only true safe places in this state for EVERYONE! That is a hard thing to achieve! The criterion sales I spend so much money but worth every penny! & I want to support Barnes & Nobles before Anyone else! When you have a great manager. They make sure to hire people that are kind & patient! Because they are happy there! Everyone is great in this store I have met but Artemis has an energy no one can deny. She could pull ANYONE out of a bad mood! Great SERVICE!!

My daughter sent me a second electronic gift card to spend on a book. So this trip was not my first…read morerodeo. I decided to go by the Noblesville, IN, location since I live nearby and browse the books. I found one that was really good. I take it to the front desk and walk to the first guy available. He rudely says I need to go to the other cashier who was already busy with another customer. I'm like OK. So when the other cashier was done and I told her that I wanted to purchase this book with a gift card; that's when I was forced into Barnes & Noble hell. The cashier apparently knew nothing about B&N policies, their gift card program, or even good customer service! Rather than go into specifics, this cashier tells me I could not use the gift card IN the store but had to use it ONLINE! I'm like what? You mean to tell me I have the book I want in my hand but I've got to go online to order it and pay shipping fees? She says yes and I thought she was absolutely nuts! It didn't make sense. So I press on telling this cashier I've done it before! She insists I couldn't use it in-store! I thought instantly my poor daughter who sent me the card was doing something nice for her dad and look at this stupidity! The cashier then consults the other rude cashier and he says thee same thing and I slam the book down and tell them I will NEVER shop at Barnes & Nobles again! The I call customer service for B&N and who do I get? Some Filipino 8000 miles away! I go home and do my research and nowhere on the B&N website does it say a customer can only use a gift card online. My experience at B&N changed my entire day! But while I'm on the subject of negative impressions of B&N, this new location is much smaller and there is a serious lack of place to sit and peruse the books! The chairs that are available are like those at the airport. Don't get up for a moment because someone is waiting and will take your seat since they are a hot commodity there! Also why is there a lack of technology magazines like the ones B&N used to carry? The magazine selection looks like the ones that used to be at CVS and other pharmacies! I will most certainly go ONLINE in the future to get my books. There are choices like Thriftbooks and Amazon available for my book buying rather than subject myself to the tyranny and very poor customer service of B&N.

Although there seems to have been some harsh reviews in the past, I found this bookstore to be very…read moresimilar to the competitors that are found in the Indy area (Borders). Very similar line of merchandise: Novels, music, toys, graphic novels, and a cafe/coffee shop. There were plenty of staff on the floor to assist if needed and the condition of the store was clean and well stocked. I didn't have any trouble finding what I was looking for. If you like reading actual books and owning them, then stop by the Muncie Mall if you are in the area. This store is large enough to have its own outside entrance on the east side of the mall.

Poor Books a Million, how do you hang on?…read more When I first moved to Florida, I shopped at Books a Million because it was almost everywhere and Borders and Barnes & Noble weren't. The trouble was that they never seemed to discount anything and their savings card didn't seem to help, but cost me to have it. It seemed to be more for the Joe Muggs coffee shop inside the store and the trinkets at the cash register. This store is no different from the others. They have the magazines ("news stand") on one wall toward the outside of the store (the restrooms are near there) and Joe Muggs is at the mall entrance. The books and games, etc. are in-between the two. It's a compact store, but probably sufficient given the population and the likelihood that someone will actually buy. While I saw a few people working, no one bothered to say anything. The coffee shop was a lonely place, also, with only two customers. If it was Starbucks, they'd be having knock-down-drag-outs for seats. Nothing out of place for Books a Million. How do they stay in business?

They have the cutest little children's section with new and used books (including many I haven't…read moreheard of) and toys. Whenever we need a gift for a kid, this is always the place I head to first. You can also buy books online and they will deliver them to you (locally) for free. I also appreciate their concern for safety during the pandemic. They're the only local business I know of that kept their mask mandate in place after the CDC guidance in May 2021 that vaccinated people didn't need to wear masks. Since many people in Indiana aren't fully vaccinated and most no longer where masks except where required, I don't really feel comfortable taking my unvaccinated child many places and I appreciate Second Flight Books' concern for children under 12 (and high risk adults). I know they've taken some heat for this policy, so I just want them to know how much it was and still is appreciated by our family.

Surprisingly neat book nook with a massive selection, my buddy and I didn't quite find what he…read morewanted, a hardcover of The Screwtape Letters, but still an inviting and easy spot to recommend. Well organized for a small space, do not forget the basement! They have a sister store downtown too. Value is typical for a small store. The prices are of course not eBay however directly supporting a local business is goals these days. Staff was relaxed, everything was clean, and I will be back!

I love Indy Reads! You can donate used books on the first Friday of every month. It's a great way…read moreto clear out your bookshelf and feel better about purchasing a book on your way out. Not only is it a non-profit bookstore that will have you walking out with at least one book in hand, but it also has English literacy and other educational classes and opportunities! There is also a book club, author events, and children reading events. A true gem within the Fountain Square Community.

There were alot of books to choose from. we were all able to find something . After which we went in to take a look around. They had a wonderful selection of childrens books, rare books as well. Its a medium sized spot but they fit a childrens corner in. I was pleased to find vintage Richie Rich and Sugar and Spike comic books for 1.00. This was certainly a wonderful place to stumble upon which had alot of gems inside. The vintage type writers were a really cool touch as well. Everything about this place was inviting and warm. At the cash register I came across an assortment of stickers and if you know me, you know I love stickers..Of course I grabbed a couple to complete my purchase. There is a space right by the door that has a sitting area, the leather chair was so comfortable but it was thw huge leather ottoman for me and the chess set that makes you wanna learn to play, if you do t already no how too. I could spend hours sitting and reading. Finally it was time to go but I will most certainly be back to see what other treasures I can find. Until next time Indy reads!!!
