“I love going here! I try to shop independent bookstores, and until a few weeks ago, I've never had a bad experience at Carmichael's! But the last time I was here, a worker made nasty comments about me while I was quietly browsing. It was really off-putting, and I'm still not entirely sure what I did wrong. I ended up leaving without checking out. I'm not sure if I want to go back- I might have to see if I can find another bookstore to patronize. Other than that, you can't go wrong with Carmichael's!”

“I went here for the first time on Independent Bookstore Day and I loved it! They were very busy but it was still easy to get around and find what I was looking for. I was kind of overwhelmed with the crowd though so I wasn't able to stay long, but I definitely plan on returning when it's a little less busy. The staff was also super nice and helpful!”

“Overall it's a good book store. Prices are high, but I guess that's what it is. Nice cafeteria inside, with many desserts (also overpriced). But they have a bit of EVERYTHING. Need a book, this is the place.”

“The employees were kind and not at all intrusive. The layout was strange compared to others I've been to, but for its size, it felt unique and cozy. One employee noticed a game i grabbed and commented on what she liked about it in a conversational way, but without making me feel obligated to engage if I didn't want to. I did. I talk too much. Overall, it was a nice experience. They didn't have as much as I am used to seeing, and was hoping to find, and the toy to book ratio felt tipped more to the toy end.”

You can also rent or check out DVDs of good audio and visual things. Movies and talks that is.Look her before seeking out any other supply or book store. They are about the faith, and out Lord, and not concerned with getting rich. They really care about people.PAX.”

“The most helpful staff I have ever encountered. When trying to find the perfect notebook/pen combo, Mason Rassega was an incredible help. He took time out of his busy morning to give me personal care and ensure that I found the perfect solution for my purposes. Mason is a stellar example of how everyone in the service industry should present themselves. Thank you Mason Rassega!”

“Awesome and unique bookstore and music store. Decent selection of books and well organized for a used bookstore. They have some old games like Atari, game boy, and some I couldn't recognize. Fair prices. I'm glad this store is surviving still in the online music and ordering days.”

“The staff are super helpful and make it easy to rent/return books. I’m a new grad student, and didn’t attend UofL for my undergrad, so I appreciate their help and being able to answer any questions I may have. I like the size of the bookstore as it’s not overwhelming huge but has quite a few options as far as merchandise goes.”
