Everything is new though, so be prepared to pay new book price. The bookkeeper let me browse without constantly asking if I needed anything. Good experience all around.

Absolutely fantastic bookstore…read more PROS: -Plentiful, easy parking. This is in a strip mall with lots of space, and tons and tons of parking space. -It doesn't feel like a "sit and read" kind of place. They have a few chairs near the front door for sitting, but I honestly enjoy the lack of a ton of sitting space. It feels like a place you can actually talk about books without feeling like a librarian is going to glare at you. -They have a bathroom! I know, fancy stuff. But legit, a lot of strip mall retail businesses don't have a bathroom. Storyline, specifically, has a single unisex restroom. It's clear this is/was the employee backroom, yet they leave it available to customers. Plus, complimentary feminine care products. Seriously, this is a level of care that needs to be shouted out. -Lots of book options. With limited shelf space, most of the "normal" books are single copies out on the shelf with "trendy" books having multiple copies for purchase. This maximizes the number of books available for purchase. -Really organized with gigantic hallways and walkways. No stairs to enter anywhere. A few of the bookstores in town feel super cramped; this one feels really spacious with skylight windows and lots of walkways. It feels so welcoming. Each "type" of bookshelf is really well-organized too, including clear shelf separation between "Fantasy", "Romance", and "Romantasy", really getting more granular than the "stereotypical" organization. -Littleton's Market, with its coffee shop is in the same strip mall. They have tons of seating over there if you want to take your book that way for reading. Crimson Cup is also down the street, though you'll need to drive to that one. -All the books look pristine. I didn't see a single copy that had bent pages or folded-over covers. -They have a cute tiny kid's rocketship in the children's book area, and it's like a super-small play space that could entertain a kid or two if parents wanted to browse books elsewhere. -It's a new bookstore, and the books are priced like new copies of the books. A few were on Kindle Unlimited, but for the ones that weren't, the prices here at Storyline were cheaper than buying on Amazon. We bought a couple, as I'm happy to support a small business in town, and I was just impressed to see that their pricing is so competitive to Amazon. CONS: -I really don't have a single thing. I'd love for it to have an attached coffee shop, but now I'm just changing their entire business plan on them.

Absolutely love the selection, the friendly employees and their events. The world DOES need more…read morelittle bookstores. I'm very glad Storyline exists.

Got out without it, did get her a couple trinkets plus a few gifts for birthdays coming up. They have... everything. Clothes, toys, household decor, workout stuff, holiday stuff.

Do not take your kiddos unless you want to be in here for forever. An amazing location, nice parking lot. Clean store. Alright staff. The value is there with some things, but the quality?! You get what you pay for for sure. I will be back though. You bet I bought some candy and new food containers for work.

Place has been rearranged due to the pandemic. There seems to be less books and all the toys have…read morebeen reduced to a few shelves. I like coming here because of the Starbucks. It's not as busy as the dedicated Starbucks on the other side of the parking lot. Baristas are always friendly and you can browse some of the latest reads. The food is not super fresh but still tastes good. They will warm it up for you. Coffee is traditional Starbucks.

We were shopping for some travel guides for London's and Iceland so we can plan a coupon of summer adventures. Lots of choices and we were definitely not disappointed. This place is great to take the kiddos if you're looking for something to do during the quarantine - they have a great reading nook and a great toy section. If you are in need of dessert after your dinner they have a great selection of Cher cake factory cheesecakes and cookies as well. The bathroom could use some attention as each time I utilize it it's not the cleanest and well stocked it would be for the amount of people I see in the store. Overall great Barnes and nobles.

Cool set up and lots of back issues, but the use of AI everywhere is what's making me not go back…read more They even have AI songs about their store playing while you're in there. The irony of heavily using AI in your comic book store, while AI is taking the work of artists daily. Wouldn't recommend at this point until they drop the AI usage.

Rating for the merch and not the books/school supplies, because I'm not a student here and I just…read morebought clothes here. I'm used to college apparel stores being super expensive, with maybe two or three lame styles at a reasonable price. This place has TONS of t-shirts for their "crazy eights" price, with pretty much any sort of design you could be looking for -- simple, classic, cute, mascot, etc, in several colors. They also have sweatshirts and sweatpants in that same back section with the lower-priced shirts. I bought a t-shirt and some sweatpants and I can't wait to wear them. There's also tons of options for hats, stickers, mugs, lanyards, decorations, pretty much anything that could say OU or OH YEAH is in here. They also have more expensive merchandise, if that's what you're looking for. But if you want to get a gift for someone or just some merch for yourself, this is definitely a place worth checking out.
