“Where do I begin? I came here all the way here from New York...
and was not disappointed!
Kimmy (the associate who assisted me in store today) was phenomenal! Kind, engaging, attentive and wonderful in both her recommendations and demeanor. She answered all my questions and even helped me leave with a gift for my best friend! Steamy Lit is a must visit! Definitely will be coming back. Thank you so much for your help, Kimmy!”
“Amazing 10000000/10 If i could give them 20stars i would! I'm in love everything was hands down amazing! This was a wonderful way to kick off my husband's 39th birthday weekend <3 Jordan is an amazing waitress, she made our experience too notch!”
“An excellent resource for anyone taking on the responsibility of educating their children. This location is full of resources thoughtfully displayed to make well reasoned choices about curriculum. There are also well informed staff who graciously offers information to help in the decision making process.”
“Went there with my kiddo to shop for some vinyl. They had a great selection to choose from. The entire staff was very helpful. They even showed my son how to clean his vinyl.”
“When theres a Barnes and noble theres a Starbucks and who doesnt like books you can learn alot by reading it clears your mind and the jails and prison really appreciate them”
“I was so happy to find a place in Tampa that I was able to buy, sell and trade books, movies and music. What I don't like is the price of their vinyls are a little too high for my liking. They are higher than most regular stores that sell records (Walmart, Barnes and Noble). All in all it has great vibes.”
“Awesome book store and really nothing like it in the immediate area. The owner is friendly, knowledgeable of his stock and will work with you on price. I will be back more than once in the future!”
“Great place to get all your UTampa gear. They have a ton of selections and a lot of discounted items out in front. Always a friendly staff. There is a bigger selection online as well.”
“AALBC, is a reliable company. If been ordering from them for years. The service has always been great, and the information they share with there newsletter are very informative. Thank you AALBC, keep up the great work.”
“I enjoy walking on campus visiting the book store. People helpful and a good choice and variety of books. While there I had a blueberry scone, still warm, and a cup of coffee.”
“Alex, the owner, is ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!! My family and I walked by the store and some EPIC 1/4th scale Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles models and a stunning Freddy Krueger model from Nightmare on Elm Street 3 were on display. 1 of the turtles was missing from the set but he guaranteed he could get it for me by the next day. We went back and he had everything ready for me and the transaction ready to go. What an AWESOME way to do business and make customers happy!! We will absolutely be back.”
“I am so happy! Been hunting for specific, hard-to-find comic back issues for almost a year with no luck elsewhere. I decided to call this shop, and the staff went above and beyond. The employee who answered was kind enough to manually dig through their longboxes to check their stock for me, and once he confirmed they had them, I pulled up immediately and left with one of the absolute best hauls of my life. The customer service is great, I really appreciate the kindness. They have a massive selection of options that really enticed me, but I'll have to save those for another day.I highly recommend this shop, especially if you are hunting rare/hard to find issues! Will definitely be back :)”
