This store is a nostalgic place for me. So many bookstores have gone away, but this one endures…read more I went there recently with my sister and found that they have a lot of toys at a child's level. I would like it if the store didn't do that. We had my nephew along with us, and he wanted to tear open the toys. It felt a bit predatory. I would like it more if it were just a bookstore, but I understand they needed to diversify to keep the doors open. It was very stressful and made the experience worse. If you are going with a child, you have to keep an eye on them the entire time because of the toys I mentioned in the kids' section. And I think if the kids were with us again, I would avoid this store until they're both older than 5. Young kids aren't going to understand why they can't just play with the toys. Otherwise, it's a good store to find books and get some pretty okay coffee along the way. The coffee is just okay. It's not terrible, The person at the Joes was very nice and patient with me. I like the manga section, but it seems a lot smaller than I remember. As someone who has gone to this store multiple times : If you don't know where to find what you are looking for, this might not be a good store for you. You will have to go on an adventure and hunt the book down yourself. Be brave. It's probably there. It will take some time. Please be patient with the employees. They might not know exactly where everything is. It's a huge store. Also, please have some self-awareness and don't come into a store right before closing expecting a warm welcome. It's inconsiderate to the people working there.

I received a damaged book in the mail. Rather than ask me to return it for a refund, seller…read moreinsisted I keep the book, then involved me in an insurance claim which involved taking several photos, filling out a form, then waiting who knows how long. The damaged book, in my opinion was not eligible for a claim because it was poorly packed, ie, not boxed. Seller asked me on multiple occasions to send additional photos of packing materials. I'm not sure how many pictures one can take of a bag. No offer to return book, no apology for my inconvenience, no offer of a refund was forthcoming. I eventually got tired of the whole procedure which I believe is what the seller intended.

Time to go get some books! And where do I go? Barnes & Noble of course! Here is my experience:…read more When I walk in, I see tons of books, bigger than a regular library (a local one). The service greeted me in, and very nice people, they give out recommendations to people on what books to read. I have read the whole Wings Of Fire Set in 4 months (lol) . They have a large variety of books. Fiction, nonfiction, novels, cookbooks, fantasy, mystery, any genre you can think of, will be at Barnes & Noble. A place to get some coffee as well, at their Starbuck's in Barnes & Noble. Like I said, the people are very nice, they give you discounts on paying on specific for Starbucks in Barnes & Noble for a whole month to use it on for. Like a school calming corner.... Their worth and values are great! The books are great. Everything's great!

I'm literally writing my review for Barnes & Noble while sitting at the cafe inside this very…read moreBarnes & Noble. It's actually why I'm here today. My husband works in Beaumont and while he's out making the big bucks, I'm enjoying bucks of my own - Starbucks. I decided to bring my laptop today to get a little writing done and get caught up on some of my Yelp reviews. Two days ago I walked into this Barnes & Noble for the first time. I noticed a sign out front that they were hosting a book club on Wednesday night (that's TONIGHT!). The book was unfamiliar to me or I'd have been here tonight discussing this book (it looks like a good one too!). My Barnes & Noble doesn't have a book club, so I was really impressed to see that here. The store is clean and looks like any other Barnes & Noble. The layout actually looks a lot like the one near my house in Buffalo. It feels like home. There aren't a ton of customer service people, which could be because I'm here at a slow time or on a slow day. Or maybe they're understaffed. But I will say the store is organized in a way that makes sense, so if you're a book-lover, you probably can figure that part out. If you're shopping for a friend and aren't much of a book person yourself, you may want to get some help. But that shouldn't be a problem. I'd like to think that if someone is working here, it's because he/she loves books. Book lovers are really nice people. :) One of the benefits of shopping at Barnes & Noble is that when you check out, your receipt comes with some book suggestions on it based on what you just purchased. Those can be some great recommendations! And if you're a member, there are great savings there as well, which also transfer to the online store. Plus, you can use your membership card to save in the cafe, which is good because it does not take your Starbucks card/app. The cafe here is staffed by really friendly people and there are plenty of seats in here on a Wednesday afternoon. I don't see a ton of outlets, but there is one in the back corner by the garbage can where the threshold joins the cafe to the puzzles & games. My experience both times I've been here has been positive. I'll probably be spending a good bit of time here for the next couple of weeks while I'm in town, and when I come back again in November.
