    I want to start of by saying this was never my go to shop as it's a 45 minute drive from where I…read morelive but it used to be a really great spot. I would always find good books in the back issue bins and even find some decent stuff in the dollar bins. But my last trip here will definitely be my last as it's not worth the drive anymore. I went a few weeks ago and the selection of books was dismal and most of them are in really bad shape yet they still expect 8-15 dollars for some minor keys in the back issues. The place is also a complete mess when it comes to finding anything and the guy at the register is a jerk and shady. They were having a Black Friday sale and and they said no % off on "new" wall books and then proceeded to tell me that books that were in the wall when I came weeks ago were apparently "new" and that I couldn't get the deal they advertised and I drove 45 minutes for. All in all just about this place

    Forever this particular shop stood out to me for years as id stopped coming due to well, just bad…read moreservice overall. The thing that hurt was that I loved going. It was much closer than the one in Quincy and had a much better selection than Norwood, so it was a no-brainer. While out earlier, a friend and I decided to stop in. We'd both had been wanting to see if there was a change. Plus, we were in the area as we had just had lunch next door. Best decision ever. Kyle is beyond one of the coolest individuals I've come across when dealing with various comicbook stores in my lifetime. I've been collecting since I was 8, and now, having just turned 50, it's needed. Attentive, friendly, and just plain cool. It was definitely needed and refreshing. Thanks to Kyle, I'll be looking forward to shopping again in the near future!!

    The Barnes & Noble and the Buck A Book in Downtown Crossing closed years ago, and more recently the…read moreB&N at the Pru closed during the pandemic in 2022. When I happened upon the Barnes & Noble at Derby St Shops, I came to realize that I had somehow been mentally convinced that there were no more open locations. So this was a pleasant surprise! Nice and spacious with a well decorated children's area and a Starbucks on the right. Stop on by and peruse some books!

    As book stores close everywhere around and people are sad maybe the CEOs should visit the stores…read moreand see the problems. I have a kindle but went to Barnes and Noble for a book for a gift and was also shopping around. The person in the middle that helps you look up books was very helpful. However that's where it ended. We went to the cafe and I know it's Starbucks not Barnes and Noble but the people working there were very rude to us. They gave us moldy food we had to return no apology. Then when we went to check out at Barnes and Noble we couldn't remember the number for our rewards and the woman checking us out said snarkily "oh now we are onto the 3rd number" then when we went to give the other number she goes "wait a minute wait a minute" like yelling at us.....safe to say we will stick to our kindles and go elsewhere for gifts which sucks! But like I said if anyone is wondering why places are closing it's customer service related!
