They have a huge selection and I love coming here after work or to find something for a birthday gift. They have a huge and organized selection. It is volunteer based and the people who work here are so sweet. If you can't find a book you want they can put it down on a list for you and hold it. When it is donated they'll give you a call. It is also such a steal when everything is so expensive to either get your monthly free book or pay no more than $2 for sometimes completely new books. It's the best!

Brianna lacks social skills and DOES NOT need tc be in customer service! I went to the store today…read moreand realized everything was 25% off... which is such a fun sale! I bought a $100 item for my daughter two days earlier and had the receipt still on me so l asked if I could essentially price match. Really a yes or no answer. I asked if I could purchase the item today on sale and then return it with the previous receipt. Again, yes or no is all I needed. Briana loudly and looking obviously annoyed asked me twice to explain what I was asking. Then said "for all I know you could be lying. You might not even have the item at home. You could have found the receipt in the parking lot." People were looking. She made a big deal embarrassing me over a simple yes or no question. I did not need her to accommodate my request but simply needed her to have good customer service and not cause a scene while stating I'm dishonest. I decided to purchase the item on sale since it was a big percentage off and worth the work of me going home and getting the original purchase to return. However Brianna alerted the cashiers about me and I was confronted when I went to check out. I felt purposely humiliated by her. When I told the lady at the cashier I was simply going to purchase the item, the lady was kind and extremely accommodating but I was disgusted that somehow in the long line of people I was identified as someone to question when I went to check out. Absolutely horrible experience and I hope Brianna is fired.

Well worth a visit to go through their VERY LARGE SELECTION of used & like-new hard-back &…read morepaperback books, DVD's & CD's at bargain prices. I visit 4 or 5 times a year & have gotten at least 30 "just what I was looking for" books & CD's from here. I am careful to buy only items that will be read or viewd more than once, or I would have to buy a new bookcase every year. Staff was quick to answer questions & give directions. May take half an hour (or so) to discover the ins and outs of the entire layout. Entire family should enjoy a visit. NOTE: The Germantown Library Friends Bookstore is smaller, but is my favorite library-related used bookstore in the Memphis area. I visit once or twice a week for all sorts of "modern" books & CD's at bargain prices, and for fine older books which often come up for sale. Have bought at least 150 books there this decade, some of which were absolute steals. It's a very inexpensive addiction.

You do have to dig a little bit to find the hidden gems, but it's worth it! I got a record and a book today for $1.10. I've also found brand-new hardbacks for no more than $4.00. Book lovers should definitely stop in.

Books are fairly priced and they also had a "mystery book"section for $2. The thing about the mystery book is you have no clue what you're getting because it's wrapped up nice and neat, it could be worth more....or less??? Visit and stay awhile and I'm sure you'll find something your little heart desires! Memphis history, southern history, cookbooks, whatever you're looking for I'm sure they can assist. Oh almost forgot! They will also buy your books, I was told to bring what I have and they will take a look at them! How awesome is that?!

First time going in, I always want to, but I always happen to be around at closing time. I can say…read moreit's an amazing store with tons of rare first edition books and signed ones! I've always been a big fan of Off Square and Square books, so it was interesting to see a branch with rare ones! In terms of value, yes the books are expensive, but totally worth it for 1st editions and the types of finds! There's some really cool posters available for purchase too! The man working behind the counter (whom I assume is the owner) was super nice and helpful/friendly, and gave off a great atmosphere to the place. Although I didn't buy anything this first visit, I will definitely be back! The finds are too good to pass up.

Use the doorway next to the children's store and head upstairs. Large selection of Faulkner including signed editions and also Ole Miss Yearbooks where Faulkner's first published poems can be found. Also a lot of signed John Grisham who is a friend of Square Books. A wide range of poetry, southern authors, contemporary authors. Definitely worth a stop by and a look.

I saw some pretty cool gems - some DVDs, CDs, vintage books. Definitely worth a look! A place like this definitely benefits from frequent fliers that come in to trade books - so here's your incentive to do so! It's a cool system to trade in books for store credit and to help out the local readers.

Whether it's a local issue, local event, or local author -- you are likely to find it at Novel. *their signed book section! It makes me so happy to find so many unique and special books all in one spot. *their gifts! They've got art from regional artists -- prints, jewelry, local baked goods, etc. That is probably the section we buy most religiously from and we are never disappointed! The quality of these items is fantastic as well. They've got socks with witty saying on them and all kinds of book merch that I love and want to buy every bit of it! *I would be remiss if I did not specially point out their toy section is my kids FAVORITE part of the store. *author visits! LOVE! Getting to meet your favorite author and have a photo with them?! Nothing like it. We've never had a bad experience with the employees at Novel and while there are good deals to be found throughout the store you will likely pay closer to full price for items throughout the store.
