Pleasant and helpful staff. So many good books to choose from. There are books in many price ranges; everyone can afford a good book. I look forward to the next time I can visit the store.

Went in to buy a bday gift on the fly. Got gift, card, and gift bag - one stop shopping! Upon learning that we were putting this together in the car on the way to dinner, the sales people helped us remove the price tags and wrap it. We were all set before leaving, and no awkward wrapping in the car! We really appreciated they went the extra mile! This kind of service makes me a repeat customer!

Only really go there to buy manga, and they have a decent selection of recent/popular stuff, but they're restricted by shelf space which I get but still kinda sucks. Selection is ok but I can never find volumes 1-10 of something, it's always 2, 5 6 7 8, 10 kinda thing.

Not a very big selection, you're better off ordering online.

I was in Truro yesterday at the mall. I entered the store and was immediately approached by a salesperson. I thought she was going to assist me but she came after me for not wearing a mask. I wear a shield (which provides more protection than a mask) since I am unable to wear a mask. This apparently was not good enough for her. I proceeded to tell her that I will shop elsewhere. I went to several stores in the mall with no issue. There was also a kiosk in the mall concourse and the worker there was wearing a shield so obviously it is an alternate option for the mall kiosks. If businesses choose to act as an agent of the government, then they will be held to the same standards. I am filing a complaint with Better Bsuiness for discrimination. Go Woke Go Broke. PS I bought the book I was looking for online.

While searching for a specific book title, I discovered the novel I wanted. A call to Truro had Coles hold the book and give me the few days needed to make the trip to pick it up. The staff was pleasant and friendly, and helpful. I look forward to going back to this shop.

Went in with my 3 year old to check in on the availability of a book. Was Immediately harassed by the “policy police” in regards to my three year old not wearing a mask. Provincial law regarding masks states that children 2-4 don’t require a mask if their caregiver can’t get them to wear one. My son just keeps throwing his off and doesn’t understand so we don’t try to force it. I understand Covid affects us all and I’m very much pro science and mask but this was over the top given the situation with very little empathy for a father trying to shop with a toddler. Ironically, in the past I’ve gone in to Coles only to have the employees sitting around chatting and not bothering to help me whatsoever; but give the opportunity to scare off customers with “policy” they jump up and waste no time.During these times I’d love to shop local and support my community rather than shop on the internet but if I can’t rely on understanding and empathy from local retail when I have no choice to bring my child than I’ll Just give my hard earned money to Jeff Bezos
