A good selection of books and misc things throughout the store, all organized. To the back are their clearance options (which are super low priced) and a childrens section. Theyve got thriller/horror sections, CD/music sections, fiction section, YA/Fantasy sections, and more throughout the store.Staff are friendly and seem open to any questions you may have. Prices overall are as the brand says..prices are very good especially compared to Barnes & Nobles.

I love coming here every time! Could spend all day. The staff is very nice and super helpful. Especially Shaun, he made sure to check that the book I needed was on the shelf before I drive all the way over. I needed a specific anniversary edition and revised version and he went above and beyond to check that for me. Thank you!

This place is great! I recommend going there for DVDs; they always have a good collection, and every time I visit, they have something new. The prices are reasonable.

I came here today to search for a specific book. The gentleman there behind the counter helped me and made it very easy. The book I wanted was at a different location. He helped me order it to ship to my home. He was kind and helpful. I appreciate it. He made my day. I found some great deals and I loved shopping used books to help save our earth by recycling. It was a win win today for me with this trip. I'll definitely be back.

Great place to find cheap books and a few other things. If you can't find it at their store they will look at their other stores and ship it to them for you to buy. I have to say this is a great store to try out.
