“I drive 45 minutes, passing two other Barnes & Nobel locations, to visit the Deer Park location. It is by far my favorite and always has the books im looking for. Other locations need a remodel to be set up/designed like this one.”

“A great independent bookstore that always seems to have something of interest in their curated sections. Staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and even gives some great recommendations. And if there is a book you want that isn't in the store, they'll order it for you and have it arrive in a couple days. Support local bookstores that care about books over big box retailers that don't. You'll miss places like this in your community when they are gone.”

“From beautiful prayer cards to ornate statues to nice religious gifts, Marytown Gift Shop has it all. It is a little hard to find, so make sure to ask the receptionist at the entrance if it is your first time. They have a wide variety of gifts and keepsakes that are all at pretty affordable prices. They even have a great website for convenience! Stop in or shop online, you won't be let down!”

“The perfect bookstore aesthetic. The staff are helpful and the vibes are romantic and welcoming. I strongly encourage anyone to going at least once (or a dozen). Already bought a book, some manga, and even a graphic novel from this bookshop.”

“⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ I had to leave a review today specifically to shout out an incredible employee named Carma. I came into the store completely exhausted and running on empty after pulling a three-day marathon for a graduate school project. I was totally all over the place—forgetting things, asking a ton of questions, having to run out to my car for my wallet—basically a total space cadet. Instead of making me feel rushed or judged, Carma treated me with the most beautiful, peaceful, and authentic kindness. Her name is incredibly fitting because she just radiates good energy. She was patient, deeply helpful, and made what could have been an embarrassing, stressful interaction feel completely comfortable. We always hear about the bad experiences, but people like Carma are the reason customers keep coming back. Half Price Books has a gem on their hands! Thank you, Carma!”

“My absolute favorite store for gifts for children of any age. Everything is made specific for children’s growth and brain development. I am so sick of glittery, loud useless toys that do nothing but promote some created character. Any choice in this store would be a good one. It is perfectly laid out with informed and engaged employee’s and a ton of parking. Forget Bluey and choose something that will bring a child genuine growth and development in addition to the pure joy of having a new toy!”

“This is my favorite bookstore. I'm not a Christian myself, nor can I read Hangul, but there's just a positive energy about this place. They are friendly and eager to offer a deal if you buy multiple items. I recommend their music collection, which can be enjoyed without understanding Korean.”

“??☕️Barnes & Noble is such a great spot for book shopping and spending quality time with friends. You can browse books at your own pace, grab a tea or coffee, and just relax. My friends and I actually met here for a book club meeting, and it was perfect - comfortable chairs, spacious tables, and a calm, welcoming atmosphere that makes conversations flow easily. Easy access and a cozy setup make this location ideal not just for shopping, but also for meeting, reading, and connecting. Highly recommend! ✨”

“We visited Barbaras Bookstore after my son ran inside because he thought he saw on octopus on display. (There wasn't) But I have to say, the store is clean and almost meticulously organized. The store was organized by category, had a childrens play area and there was a clearance section too. We had no intention of really buying anything, but of the three people I saw working there, none of them greeted us or asked if we needed help finding anything either. For what is worth, I still think my visit here was enjoyable and the childrens section was very nicely set up.”

“Great place. They are always happy to order something they don't have in stock. I would much rather support an actual book store than purchase something on-line from the "A" place even if it might be a few $ more.”

“Nicole the cashier was very nice to me. I was looking for this specific pen special edition which they didn't have but she provided me with information of the pen, pen point, pen code and the email to ask the store about it as well as the website. She was very kind and respectful. I thanked her very much for helping me out.”
