Nothing I love more than a quiet Saturday with a coffee and books. This location had tons of journal options which I enjoyed and lots of sales. The three books I went looking for they didn't have any in stock which was disappointing. I think its a good location for a quick stop but they had challenges with stock read more

I was sent to the store by my partner on restock day to look for some Pokémon, and I was helped by the wonderful Persia. She was so sweet patient and informative and helped answer all of my questions in regards to restocks and how we can make purchases, etc.. She deserves a promotion y'all! She single handily is the reason why I will be coming back to this location. read more

They have 2 cashiers by parking lot and none at mall. One lady doing inventory who didn't care and when asked if it doesn't make sense to have one cashier at each entrance / exit would make more sense she replied the cashier who works at the mall entrance has not come in. I guess neither of them have been trained to work cashier at mall entrance, or they have a manager who does not work Sundays that will not allow them to separate and one work each end. read more

We were surprised by the lack of books for toddlers. They pretty much have story books and not much of a variety for all kids. Our 4-year old granddaughter, who loves books walked out with nothing. Her aunt called when we were looking at actually ordered her books she was looking for. Whatever they did have was not organized very well. read more

Since I purchased my iPad almost 2 years ago, I haven't purchased a hard copy of a book. I download them all from Barnes & Noble and use the Nook app on my iPad. But this still doesn't keep me out of book stores! Every time I visit Orange Park Mall, I go into Books-A-Million. It's easier for me to walk around the store and actually see the books and be able to touch them than trying to find new books on a website. It's nice b/c the new and popular books are always right there when you walk in. I much prefer this particular Books-A-Million over the on at Regency. It's cleaner, more organized, and the lighting is better. Not only do I enjoy the books, but I love looking through the vinyl albums they carry here and I really enjoy looking at all of their magnets. They have some pretty hilarious magnets and I've bought several. You can also find some really cool games and gag gifts here. I also love that Yogurt Mountain is attached to the store. It's not uncommon for me to grab a pile of books and then go grab me some fro-yo and plop down to make a list of the books I want to download while enjoying my frozen yumminess! For the most part, the employees here are friendly and helpful. The reason I took away the 5th star is b/c I do run into unhelpful employees from time to time. I hate to ask an employee where I can find a particular book (especially when they aren't busy) and all they do is point to a section of the store and then walk off. I actually told a young employee once as he turned to walk off, "Gee, thanks for being so helpful because I can see how horribly busy you are." Needless to say, he turned around and immediately became very helpful. :) So yea, I'm a fan of this store. :) read more

Nice store, cashier was helpful and nice. BAM, is always a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle of the crazy shoppers! So quiet and calm! Nice store! read more

The staff was at this store are very helpful. The store has a nice selection of gifts and journals! The annual membership gives discounts and coupons that can be reused. I stopped going to Barnes and Nobles. read more

I like it here. It would be special if you had a bench or coffee spot indoors for fun comfy reading times. See you soon for my next buy.

Books-A-Million has been around a while and this location (although a chain) is one of the last standing book stores in the area. It's a great place to go before you go and see a movie next door and grab a coffee just to relax. Books-A-Million stores feature Joe Muggs cafés. They have a huge selection of books, magazines, gifts and fun, random inventory. The staff is friendly and helpful if you ask for assistance and they keep the place pretty neat and organized. Ample places to sit if you just want to nerd out on your computer. Overall, I love the smell and feel of a brand new book & have no issue coming to a physical bookstore if I want to pay full price for a book in this day and time. I'm glad there's still a Books-A-Million in the area. read more

BAM is just average, the book selection is just okay, the prices are high. I walk out with maybe a cheap thing or 2.

This BAM is a nice bookstore. My only complaints are there are no chairs, and there is no coffee shop. They instead have a fro yo bar. There are chairs in the fro yo section. They have a book selection that is very comparable to B&N. They offer cool trinkets and gifts. There is a checkout counter in the front and in the back, but there is no dedicated "help desk", you would have to wait on a cashier or find someone around the store if you can. And they sell bottled Butter Beer! I have yet to try it, but I know where to go when I'm ready! read more

As far as bookstores go this one is definitely one of my favorites. The employees are very helpful and friendly. The store is kept clean and in order. If you need help, there is generally someone nearby to answer any questions. This is a great store for all of the latest books written by your favorite authors! read more

Let me start by saying, my general attitude towards place to buy books is this: locally owned bookstore = best, used bookstore = better, Barnes and Noble = good BooksAMillion = okay. That said, for a very long time, as a Fleming Island resident this was the only place even close to being convenient for me. Because this location is so close to the movie theater, you're best off to park at Belk or another anchor store and walking then using the main outside entrance. In the past few years, the set up has changed a lot. Near the outside entrance is the clearance section. It's just sort of piles of books in general categories. Sometimes you can get something good here but I don't generally have much luck myself. They do have a large selection of magazines and you can often find the new issues here before most places (though that is also true of Barnes and Noble). They have a cute kids' section but I don't have much need for that. They used to have a little cafe near the mall entrance. It is now a frozen yogurt place. First off, I'm shocked it's still a yogurt place, I thought that fad was on it's way out. Second, there is now not one coffee place in the OP mall (I mean, you can get a coffee at Chickfila but it's not the same) but there are 2 fro-yo places. I just don't understand why they would put a yogurt place in a bookstore. The customer service is pretty hit or miss. Like Amy said, if you ask for help sometimes you just get a hand wave in the general direction of where you can find a book. I also find the pushing of the discount card to be too much. Before e-readers I used to purchase a lot more brand new actual books but it's just not worth it for me anymore. I get it, I used to work in retail and had to push credit cards but if I tell you no, I don't want to know the "other" benefits to the card. Overall, I think my dislike of this place is a dislike with the way BAM does business in general. If you're at the mall, it's worth a browse but, imo, if you really want to do some book shopping or browsing, head over the bridge to Barnes and Noble. read more

Easily my favorite place in Jacksonville to get books! They always have what I'm looking for and if they don't they are always willing to order it for me. They also have a huge selection of discounted books! I always find great books for $5 or less! read more

Staff should do a better job at making sure deals are valid and explaining to customers. Taking time and helping a customer understand with nice customer service would be nice. Also they did not refund my cash bought item. Due to no cash? Just offering store credit. Ridiculous. It should be originally refunded if it meets the 30 day criteria ( I tried to return 2 days after purchase). Especially if I am spending 100$+ . read more

I actually like this bookstore and purchase more than I came in for but when I made my trip probably two months ago while checking out she said I qualified for free magazines. There are plenty of programs that send you free magazines through the mail without your card information so I thought this was one of them. She swiped my bank card "for my address" and I just got charged 20.00 for the magazines. Now I have to wait for this company to respond to delete my account because I wasn't told about this. I know it was BAM because it's on the website as a partner. I know sometimes cashiers get bonuses when they sign people up for a credit card and I don't know if that was the case but you could have easily said would you like a trail membership of a magazine that would renew automatically after a while. read more

Prices could be better. Quiet for the size, great selection. Need more discounts
