Was not given a solution to purchase online or any other directive just that they can not do it at this location. Would have rather put the books back than process transactions. Just the week prior I was able to do a purchase with a different Barnes and Noble with the same stipend card. Management at other location was pleasant and customer service centered while the Sarasota location and its management and staff did nothing to try to be helpful. Being a Barnes and Noble customer and member holder; I was extremely disappointed with the lack of service and attention and repeat customer. Won't be using this location even though it's more convenient than other locations.

I asked the young lady if they had it and she directed me to the Notable Non fiction section which I thought was strange since it is fiction. Of course it wasn't there and I returned to the cash register where she got a little short with me and kept repeating " I told you it's in the Notable non fiction section!" After I kept telling her that it wasn't and why, she not very happily opened her computer and retrieved the book for me. It's a nice store with good inventory. Customer service could use some work though.

The older books that were published years prior were beautiful to look through, however, if you're not in the market for it, I don't think this bookshop will work. The few books I came across that were newer, were priced as if you were purchasing from Amazon. I might as well buy from a new bookstore if I'm going to pay those prices. I'd get a brand new book. Nice concept though.

We went ahead and parked when we realized. However, after considerable walking and asking many different individuals, we never found this bookseller. We did have a few people tell us the only place they knew that had books was in the pavilion and we tried there too but only found another stall (different name) with very few books. It looks like this business may be closed. I would call a number to check but do not see one listed.

It has an abundant variety of titles for all tastes and ages, and you can't beat the prices (the owner will usually reduce the total price if you buy multiple books). The place is a little tight when it comes to space, but to me that only adds to its charm. Also, expect some dust on the books and, well, generally everywhere. Whether you're a local or just visiting, if you want to get away from the artificiality of online algorithms when it comes to recommendations about what to read next, give this great bookstore a chance. You won't regret it!

But it's hard to say no when you keep finding so many fun things! I absolutely love how they integrated little fun supplies in almost all areas of the bookstore. I found stationary by classics and romance. There were thank yous & note cards over by nonfiction and mystery. And that's just for starters! The selection here was absolutely incredible. As for beverages, there's a cute little coffee shop that also has gelato within walking distance. Unfortunately, I didn't have time to stop there, but since I have every intention of going back to visit this book store again, I will make a point to visit that little shop as well!!
