I was very impressed with the children's Halloween book selections here. And their displays were true visions that would make any child happy. I also like all the extras offered - like little ghost coin purses that look like the ones from the early 20s. You know what I'm talking about, little beaded coin purses with a little fringe Om the bottom. But with ghosts in them. lol! The people working there were happy, and that says a lot about a store to me. I asked a few questions and they were very knowledgeable and quickly answered my questions with confidence. It was a great experience and there were many people buying books early in the morning. It's a great way to start your day.

Sale discounts were posted everywhere. A chance to get the best bang for your dollar. You could spend hours upon hours going through the store and did I mention taking the escalator to the second floor? Found a cute area set up for the children's section. My granddaughter found several books to start off her summer reading. A nice gentleman checked us out. We were on our way and happened to notice the cafe. Just couldn't miss picking up a little treat :-)

It's not a big store, but it's filled with energy. The right kind of energy. The kind that makes you want to look at everything they have to offer. It's the week before Halloween and they have the most adorable Halloween woven bags for trick or treaters - or to fill the bags up with wonderful Halloween books for decorating your shelves. And while I was there I bought a stuffed tigger - yes, from Winnie-the-Pooh. I am a sucker for this story series. When I could t find the book I walked into this shop for, the employee was more than willing to help me, and did so efficiently. This bookstore has a great reputation in Dallas and when you walk into the shop, you know why they're loved.

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!

First of all, the Bishop Arts District itself is incredibly charming. Block after block of unique shops ranging from bookstores and bakeries to candle shops, candy stores, coffee spots, and little boutiques. It's exactly the kind of neighborhood I loveeeee exploring while traveling and if I lived in Dallas, I'd probably frequent this area often. As for The Wild Detectives, the concept alone immediately appealed to me...bookstore meets cafe meets bar meets restaurant. That combination will pretty much always grab my attention. I love to read, I love to eat. The space has a pretty relaxed, community oriented vibe, and during my Saturday morning/early afternoon visit, there were plenty of people working, reading, chatting, and hanging out both inside and on the patio. My one slight disappointment was that the bookstore side itself was smaller than I expected and didn't have quite as extensive a selection as I had imagined. That said, I still managed to leave with a few great additions for my ever growing TBR pile. Overall, this was a worthwhile stop and one I may revisit the next time I'm in Dallas.

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.

(I bought a True West magazine) Lots of Books, videos, DVD's, and other great stuff!! Ravenburgers Puzzles and music are still options for purchase too. Not necessarily in that order. I love any book store! This one has a nice discounted section. I think that's where I end up 99% of the time. I almost always find one affordable book I can't live without. The medical section is pretty pitiful. Books in this section are dated and honestly pretty crappy. I have noticed that the majority of the people sitting around reading magazines are over the age of 50. In years previous it was 30 something folks. I guess the demographics of readers hasn't changed, I aged with them! Lol Reading books feels like it's becoming a thing of the past. Many people today appear to read books either on their kindles or not at all. I've always been a reader and love turning the pages of a book. A Starbucks is located within B&N. Nice touch! They do close down an 1 hour before the book store I'm guessing for clean up. October 2025

I mentioned in one of my reviews how the Denton B&N store has fantastic displays, well, so does this store. I am coming to realize that I prefer the older stores, as they really create the kind of child wonder I want my grandchildren to experience. And that child wonder is truly the design and layout of the store. I needed some assistance and the staff working there was truly kind to me and patient, as I had many questions. I will skip past three B&N stores in my area to go to this store going forward.
