    Yay!

    As JT would say, "Boogie on down to BTown!" Or something like that... Because Bookman's inventory is OUT OF THIS WORLD annnnnnnnd there was barely anyone there when I shopped on Tuesday, December 21st! While every other store I've gone to is bananas-busy. As convenient as online shopping is, I really do love touching, browsing & sampling the merchandise. I actually open up Christmas card boxes b/c if they're really cheap, they emit a toxic odor & I will not buy them (I may have serious Virgo tendencies). Anyway, found me the most lovely little Christmas cards & one of the bestest books that I give as a gift all the time, The Boy, The Mole, The Fox & The Horse... The clerk at the cafe was so hospitable & gave me the lowdown on the fact they carry Starbucks products (coffees) but have their own baked goods. B/c I of course wanted to know: where are the Cranberry Bliss Bars?! (They don't carry them). I ate a Molasses Cookie that was so hard (overcooked but not burnt) that I almost broke a tooth. The Chocolate Chunk Cookie was nothing special. Love to try one of their Stuffed Pretzels next time! But such a fabulous brick-and-mortar store where you can find something for everyone if you're in a pinch right now, shopping for holiday gifts. So happy I stopped by!

    I was inside b&n , a literary church(well it used to be), but I specifically was inside with the purpose of buying a few books on the subject of managing grief, the subject being unimportant, I'm just sharing to point out how this enhanced my negative experience was in this store. As a smaller store I actually think they hold good stock and were decently organized from what I saw.. i liked it. I would have. The employee I came into contact with was rude and went ,I felt ,out of her way to be. First by her tone scolding me when I tried to snap a picture of the spine of the book to confirm a title, which yes- i have heard of copyright ...bullshit. only enforced when someone wants to be an asshole, thats only an opinion clearly Then she was hovering close by the whole time I'm scanning rows,and 10 min from closing dropped pretense of anything otherwise. I had never been here before so I veered toward the closed cafe [looking to make my way to the cashier], which she pointed that out from a few steps behind me in.. annoyance i guess? .... I'm just going to close by saying I bought nothing, I had needed to move money from ven to my debit which was the card I had on me(my mistake admittedly) Instead I noted the titles in my phone notes (her helpful suggestion- although tbf she was i think being insincere and was pointing out by asking had i had text messaging..) I didn't need that.

    It has been awhile since I last walked into a Barnes and Noble Bookseller. I have always thought that maybe the internet would of hurt the stand alone bookstores by now but, I have a feeling that will not happen anytime soon. When first walking into this Barnes and Noble, I noticed that they have security personnel now so that you just don't walk out with a book or magazine of some sort without paying. I have to admit that here you will find books of any kind of subject matter to your desire. If not readily available, they will order it for you. Even though I don't visit here that often, I found myself intrigued by the way this bookstore knows how to cater to their clientele. After all I did come here to find a particular book myself. The thing is that inside of this bookstore you will find an area with tables so that you can sit down and read at your leisure, and everyone is courteous enough not to disturb you. My better half pointed out to me that they even stock older vinyl record albums as an example. Some of which, were the ones I still have stored at home myself. For some you, that might want to take a break from browsing for books they have a Starbucks inside with tables and chairs to sit, relax, read or just do some deep thinking. The staff here are always very helpful, and friendly. Like anything else, I am fully aware that you can order any book you want online. The thing is there will always be a need for people to want to visit their local bookstore, and that will never change. That is unless you are one of these persons that is in a rush to get through life, and in a hurry. Sometimes you just have to slow down to have a really good look at what is around or maybe it's just right in front of you and can't see it. Look, I know there have been many reviews on this bookstore or other bookstores for that matter but, this is my short take on this type of business. To be honest, I'm glad that bookstores still exists. Of course, there is always your local public library that you can go visit if that's your thing.

    Got into stocks, maybe I'll put some time into it.

    Been here over 5 times, I can say that the staff are nice, always there to help you. I had a friend work here, and he says that it was a good experience but not his style. Books are always priced fairly, and I didn't have much worries. Place isn't crowded, but never lonely too.

    Good customer service. I reserved a book by phone. They hold it for up to three days. It was at check-out. They made it so very easy.

    I am usually not in this area a lot, but my daughter & I wanted to go check out this bookstore for…read moresome used books so we took the drive down. When we arrived, I realized I remembered this spot from when I was a kid, I just hadn't been back since I was younger. This spot is absolutely STUFFED with books, comic books, VHS tapes and more. You could spend quite a long time wandering around looking at all of the books they have to offer. It can be slightly overwhelming especially if you are looking for something specific as there wasn't really any clear guidance on where to find certain sections. We still had a lot of fun though wandering around and seeing what we could find. If you are looking for the prices, they are written in pencil on the inside of the books. You can find a mixture of mostly used books along with some new books. They have a cute shop cat that you can sometimes spot wandering around, or asleep at the front. The woman who was working the register the day we visited was friendly! They also had a cart out-front with a number of books that were free to grab. There is plenty of parking out-front.

    Found this little gem in Phoenix last week when I was on the hunt for a used copy of Song of…read moreSolomon. I called and they said they have the 1984 edition for $6, which was a great price. Once I was got to the store, I had to explore. I think that if one were to regularly visit Books, he/she would find some rare editions and other gems. Also, they had what looked like reproductions of banned book announcements posted around the store: all were of classic novels that we can't imagine not having access to as students. (See photos: Charlotte's Web, Huck Finn, Fahrenheit 451...) They were quite entertaining, in a disturbing way. They had the effect of making me feel so grateful that past efforts of censorship in the US had failed. In 2024, this is still a real threat. Tiny stores like this one are real treasures. Let's keep them in business.

A really great selection of all kinds of books, music, video games, and more! Everything here is community-based, with the exception of selections here and there that are brand-new. So a nice way to support buying secondhand items from Phoenix folks, being more sustainable and supporting a smaller business, and overall just a good spot to come explore! I've found lots of cool vintage magazines, vintage video games, some vinyls, and a number of books here on 19th. I definitely recommend this location!

    How haven't a written a review of this place!…read more I love an establishment that presents itself as a home for the community. I walk in to Bookman's and often find displays that are Arizona focused in a way that makes you feel and know this place is home town friendly. No big box impersonal feels here! I frequent this store and stop in just because I'm passing by. As an avid reader, I read about 50 books a year, Bookman's is a great place to buy paper books at a cheaper price. My favorite part about local shops like Bookman's is how they don't shy away from displaying banned books all year long! I have to read at least one banned books a month! There's gotta be something in the banned books they don't want us to know and I'm determined to read as many as possible. Interestingly enough, this store is full of "entertainment treasures" too. Music, musical instruments and even gaming equipment can be purchased here. The only thing missing is a social lounge with a coffee bar. We'd probably go even more often if there were a coffee bar inside. Return Factor: 100%

This spot truly is an indie bookstore, there is a little bit of nostalgia here and of course books. I love hole in the wall indie book stores.
