Book Stores in Columbus, GA

“this place is WONDERFUL. i stopped by with my equally nerdy dad and we had a blast just looking at everything. i do wish they had a lot more things considering they are really the only higher end hobbyist shop in columbus' immediate area, but im not complaining whatsoever. staring at dice for 10 minutes was totally enough for me. if you want D&D, moxie has it. i really appreciated the gundam models, and the price wasnt entirely bad either. the books look really cool. the entire back half of the shop is dedicated solely for D&D tables, which youre allowed to play at for free, and use decor for it for free as well. the staff are also really nice as well, as far as i can tell :] thanks for helping us out! im really looking forward to swinging by again some time”

“Walking into Judy bugs books is like stepping back in time but being in the future at the same time. I was very surprised at the array of books and the many different categories that they carry. If you're looking for any type of antique books they've got it, any kind of comic books they got it, or even memorabilia from those books, they've got it.
The owner is there all the time and is very knowledgeable if you're looking for a certain item. If he doesn't carry it, I'm sure he knows where to find it for you.”

“I love the Bo Bartlett Center. They put on such incredible shows and draw amazing artists and their work to Georgia allowing me to see some of my absolute favorite contemporary paintings that I never thought I would get a chance to see. ? We are talking phenomenal art, here! You don't even have to go to New York!
You can leisurely walk down Columbus River walk and see Bo Bartlett's world renown work any time they are open, for free! You might even get lucky and catch a day when Betsy Eby is playing her piano in the gallery, perhaps next to one of her beautiful encaustic paintings. You could go to one of their monthly figure drawing classes... Also free! ( Thank goodness! Because the first time I was there I had $0 and was about to be homeless myself... but I got to see work from artistic superstars, who I had longed to see in person for years and it was an absolute light in my life)
Bo Bartlett Center provides support and art supplies/classes to the homeless, as well as local school children.
I am so excited to see what they do next!”

“What a super nice bookstore run by just the nicest lady ever! We purchased a small Bible for my son who graduated from Army BCT at Ft. Benning, I could have spent hours just having such a nice conversation with the owner. Prices are SUPER econmical, you will pay 3-4 times that at the larger chain stores, shop local and enjoy the conversation. Just Blessed for stopping here.”

“Came by a few days ago, great place! Friendly staff and full selection of what I needed 🤤 Wyatt was awesome! Helped me off the top of his head without any hesitation and I really appreciate that in workers (especially in Columbus)! Haha, great time again. 💯”

“Too many toys. It’s hard to steer these kids today to the book section.

Also lots of spooky/halloween/scary material for kids. Why does a kid need a book about supernatural - the tv show”

“I’ve been going here for the past 2 years and from my past experiences with other university this one is fairly similar even when compared to bigger schools. Although the campus may be smaller then other schools the staff here can be nice and friendly.”
