    “Cute little bookshop, backed by a super knowledgeable and sweet shop owner who also runs the store. Fantastic book selection; children’s books, romance, biographies, fiction; classics, new releases; popular picks and obscure titles; cookbooks and self-help books. Right in the neighborhood, making travel light and easy. Located next to a cafe, so you can enjoy your books while having a drink. Near the park, do changing the scenery while you read is an added bonus!”

There’s an entire room in the back with kids books and even toys that go with the books. I ended combing three books and will be back for the next holiday. What a treasure.”

For those of you who love small town New England and how —in some ways — it can remind you of a Puerto Rican Pueblo, grab this wondrous gem of a family narrative set in both Woronoco, Massachusetts and la Isla del Encanto!”

    “I like this student store they hold items for my wife when she orders. They should have a bigger selection of student sports wear, like jackets, hoodies, sizes 2XL to 3XL. but they need to get better materials like 100% cotton sweats joggers & shirts more often. They're have snacks and a small variety of headphones, but they are a little more pricier students should have better deals. If you get a headache or cramps, they have Tylenol or advil for students. The little Bodega of Essex County is what I call it lol. They should have more cold drinks. I give it a 7 out of 10.”

    “Really nice store! It's huge! It's a little overwhelming, but in a good way. One of the workers said, "You either have to come with something in mind or have some time to spare." I had some time to spare and spent an hour just walking around. They have used books as well as new books. The vinyl section was really cool. Records from well-known artists as well as some lesser known artists. It's just a really cool place. I ended up buying a vinyl and a book! I'll be back!”

I love ‘bookstore hopping’ whenever I go somewhere new and this is one I’ll be going back to! Just a great environment and it’s clear they care about the community and have wonderful ethics.”

    “Prices are high on basic goods as expected and the variety of brands per object is limited. Again, being a campus book store, this is expected. Oddly, they don't have basic necessities like milk, laundry detergent, or bleach (3rd is understandable).”

    “Certain workers are kinda rude, but most were pretty nice. Edit It's nice to see a reply. I've added a star. The sitaution was that it was my first time in the bookstore and I walked up to the register to ask where the line started. Before I even got my first scentence out I way yelled at for cutting the line, which was Ironic. The worker said this loud enough to try to shame me I guess? As a suggestion, it would be nice if the line was down the center of the store, which seems to be the more intuitive setup. Better yet, it could be parrallel to the front. Regaurdless, thankyou.”

    “Hands down the best store for the arcane and occult. Focused book selection, knowledgeable and friendly staff, and rarely out of whatever it is you're looking for Barnes & Noble College Bookstore.”

    “I had one of the best experiences thanks to a male worker I think by the name Erick? He helped me find what I needed and supplied me with the correct books I’d need to make this semester a breeze. Thanks for being genuine and a real life saver when it meant the most!”

    1 Poor 9 reviews

    “i'm in the C terminal waiting for my flight. the book store is, pardon the cliche, the eye of calm in the storm. The books are a stunning collection - awesomely creepy kids books to enthrall the pre-teen crowd, graphic novels, books about POC, books by POC, international authors, and something for every reader. Books in spanish -- from fiction to true crime-- gorgeous travelogues. Strong POC focused collection. An inspirational reading section Grandmother B would love -- Granmere V would go for the crosswords. My tastes are eclectic and well matched by this lively oasis, but even my dad (conservative and non-fiction reader) would appreciate the multiple standing shelves of biography, history, and business. If they had coffee, I'd spend my entire layover here. Oh, wait, let me hit the espresso stand around the corner and come back...”

    “I had an easy time here. As soon as I walked in a team member guided me in the right direction. The book info desk was decent I asked for all the books on my course list and for some reason they kept asking if I would buy everything even after I already said I would. But no big deal. The supply section also had everything I needed to start my semester. The cashier was also great and helpful. Last but not least the 50 percent off holiday books in the new year was great too!”
