“All Good Books is the kind of place that makes a community feel like a community. Great book selection, frequent author readings, coffee and good beer, and a pet-friendly atmosphere, there’s a lot to love. Beyond being a wonderful independent bookstore, they add so much to Columbia’s character. We need more places like All Good Books, and I’m glad to support one that brings so much to our community.”

“Fantastic shop! I was in a bind and needed a scripture set for a baptism. Online was a 7-9 week back order. I found Nephi’s though a google search, called the shop, and the scriptures are on the way! The gentlemen I spoke to was incredibly helpful and kind. They are shipping the scriptures out of state and they will be here before I need them. Thank you!!”
“I love shopping at this Barnes & Noble! The staff is always friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy and welcoming. It’s one of my favorite places to browse and find new books.”
“If you have children interested in performing, look nowhere else. This place is fantastic, caring and fun. The staff are incredible people. I have seen children make meaningful and lasting friendships and memories in a safe and positive environment. They also really gain top notch theatrical skills. Truly a special gem in Midlands. Go see a show! They are wonderful!”
“Haven't been to a Books a million in a while, but this one is pretty good! A wide selection of all different types of books and magazines. Only bad part, they don't have specific dog breed books. I can see why, because it is only a small part of consumers looking for those, but was disappointing not to find them there. Staff was super helpful from workers on the floor to the cashier! Can't wait to go back!”
“Had lunch with my daughter. Staff was very friendly. The chicken masala was pretty good for cafe standard's. Good variety of choices. $7.50 buffet style eat to your hearts content.”
“I stayed away from big chain bookstore because they never have what I want in store. This Barnes and Noble changed my mind. The sales associate was so knowledgeable about the genre I was interested in that (Black Romance)! And they had a variety of books in store! I didn't shop for other genres doing this visit but I definitely will be back to do so.”
“We went to 2nd & Charles while traveling and this location was busy. The staff were very patient, helpful and got through the long line in no time. Great place!”
“Blown away by the new location on Gervais Street. We're alumni from Florida who stop in every time we're in Columbia and had been used to the somewhat cramped location on Assembly Street.This new place is unbelievable -- a veritable never-ending warehouse of Gamecock gear. Amazing.”
“Alrighty you remember this is a small business so orders will take time to process remember it's a small business so be a little patient with your order in make sure you read the process instructions.... I know one thing that gorilla ? abstract I ordered is serious business that stuff is super potent I tell ?”
“Anybody who gives this bookstore a bad review...I hope you remember you will be judged in heaven with the same measure you judge others on earth. Opening a buisness out of a house should be normal especially in this economy why would you not save the $ if you can...Christ be with you all and remember have grace and you shall be shown grace”
“Was a very nice place to go and sit and relax for a few hours while waiting for my next class. The prices are somewhat high but that can be expected for a University Bookstore.”
“Definitely a hidden gem. Very knowledgeable on books and you can tell passionate as well. Your books that larger book stores dont sell anymore, they will definitely have or can get for you.”
