“The Scholastic Book Fairs happens several times a year. I think one is in December and one is at the end of the school year in May. I enjoy going to the December fair because books can be a great gift for kids. Haha can you tell I'm in the education field.... Anyways, I went there this year because I was going to get my daughter's class books for their Christmas presents. They have quite a few specials at the book fair. One of their specials is build a box. You get a box for like $25 and fill it with as many books as you want. Sounds great but there's only a certain section that you can look to do that. Nothing in that area looked good to me. Helpful hint: if you want to get the good cheap books, then go early. I went about a week and half after it started and many of the cheap books were gone. They have aisles and aisles of books arranged by age or topic. Since I was looking for preschool books, I went to the preschool aisle. I didn't really know the system but I figured it out after walking down a few more aisles. There are price labels under each book. If it has a pink label, that means it's a discounted and cheap book. Since I was buying 18 books, as soon as I noticed that I went through every aisle to look for those cheap books. Of course since I was a week and a half late, many of them were gone. I did find one interesting book for $2 and was able to find 18 copies for the class. I thought I struck the jackpot with $2 a book. But then I went up to the counter and found out it's buy one book, get one free. Woohoo, I was over the moon. I got 18 books for $18! What a deal! The worker said all books are buy one, get one free. I'd definitely go back here. If you're looking for books for kids, come check out this place.”

“My daughter and I came here to sell some of our books back and she wanted to look around to see what she wanted to buy. There were so many books here. It's cool that they buy books but they look at condition of the book, etc. The process was easy. You basically give them your picture Iid nd a phone number. They basically text you when they're ready to give you money for the books you sell back. They give you probably half of the actual price. Located inside Pearlridge mall right next to TJ Maxx. Easy to find. The guys working here were nice and helpful. So much to choose from and they sell other random things like trinkets, and CD's. Pretty cool store..”
“I enjoy their food very much. They have such a variety of foods in a good price. I love their coffee is reasonable and it's very good quality. I also enjoyed my sunset smoothie as well I love they asked if I wanted whipped cream. The staff are so sweet and welcoming. I got my order right away.
It's an amazing bookstore with so much variety of versions of the Bible with commentaries. They have supplies like highlighters and tabs too! I love the collection of authors and topics. Such a great place to study with a beautiful view. They also have couches to lounge as well. It's a place I enjoy to get my work done.”
