I was able to find a study carrel where I could power up laptops and get some work done (and Yelp reviews written) instead of trying to work from the van when it's just too darned hot.

What a STELLAR Bookstore. I was in here on New Years Eve and it was extra fun and bustling. Because…read moreof the holiday, I think it was extra-packed, so we couldn't sit anywhere; however I typically think it's a low-key, quiet spot in which you could sit, read, or meet-up with someone. This place has a little bit of everything: a magical children's book store and reading area, a card and stationary shop section, a traditional bookstore (mostly gift-type books in my opinion) like coffee table books or very boutique, aesthetically-pleasing books, and there's a coffee shop with pastries inside too. Obsessed! They HAVE IT ALL. I can't wait to go back when it's more chill and enjoy the beautiful ambiance, architectured building.

The tour was very informative and we were taken through dorms and multiple buildings. Their student center is great and I personally was sold on the school after seeing the dining hall (so awesome).

My daughter did two semesters at Coastal Carolina, and my son did three semesters at Western Carolina, before transferring. They are both very happy at AU and proud of the school they attend.

My kids like their classes, their professors, the food in the cafeteria, and their housing, and have made wonderful friends there. I couldn't ask for more. As a parent, not much is better than when your kids are happy.

Came to the Prom yesterday, which was such a cute idea. My thoughts are that it was too dark in the room, and the music should have been more appropriate for the age of the children.

Please continue the wonderful things y'all do for the community. Thank you

Great to have a nice big bookstore with friendly, helpful staff in Athens…read more Selection of books and periodicals is fair. The premises are well kept and quiet for browsing. Most B&N stores have a similar layout with a coffee shop in one corner. Good location for finding gifts for bookworms, bibliophiles, lectiophiles, and kids. Easy to find on the corner of a strip mall next to a busy Athens thoroughfare. Lots of free parking in the adjacent lot.

I understand that sometimes you are busy at the store, but if your employer had an accurate online inventory of what you have in stock, I wouldn't need to call you for availability. I am the customer; I'm just trying to buy something and not bothering you during the day. Take it out on the real problem, not me. I have also had bad experiences in person, where reps are having conversations with other co-workers and completely ignore me as the customer while I am standing in the front of the line. This place is a hit or a miss with customer service.
