This Barnes and Noble anchors a shopping complex at the corner of Mallory Lane and Moores Lane, and…read moreis a classic location that has all the good stuff plus a great café that serves Starbucks! I have been here on more than one occasion solely for the café, but I do find myself wandering the store browsing for a good book from time to time. Most of my purchases here have been books for my nephews and a few corporate/career-based books. The store is always well stocked, well kept and clean. Service is beyond friendly, and they are always so helpful! I legit look lost each time I go in, so I ask for directions and they make sure I get to where I am going in the store. Overall, cool to still have Barnes & Noble brick and mortars around, especially this location!

If you love this place, then you totally understand the hype to it however, if you're like me and…read moreyou were introduced to this from another person who absolutely adores it, but you don't care for places like this you find it confusing. So this is a massive bookstore, music store, video store, toy store that specializes in buying used items and reselling them. So if you have an aversion to musty dirty used items, this is not your place. Which I happen to have. However, this is not McKay's fault. It is a great place to offload things you don't need and get a little cash on the side. I have a touch of sensory bias, which is why it's difficult for me to enjoy it. But I totally understand why others do. If you are planning on selling stuff, make sure you get there early. If not, when they open there will be a line not of people wanting to sell stuff just people wanting to get in there to check out anything new that came in the night before. It is always busy so do not expect to come and it not be packed. If that is an issue for you probably not your place. But a big plus is the parking lot is absolutely massive. You will find a parking spot regardless of how busy it is. And to that I give it five stars.

I was so excited to get back to McKay's for the first time in years. I was completely taken aback…read moreby the prices of books here now. Many books I found were overpriced for used books.

After shopping at Five Below, I headed to my rental car to put away my purchases. This…read moreBooks-A-Million store next door caught my attention. I had never been to one. I returned to check it out. I love a good bookstore. I am known to spend at least a good hour leafing through books and looking at whatever merchandise it has. This store is a gem. As someone who likes stationery, gift ideas, and collectables, this store has everything. I have a natural inclination to head to the discount book section. You can find everything from fiction to cookbooks. I loved it. Not that I need any more notebooks or planners, but there are some nice ones here. I liked the hedgehog one with spiral binding. I nearly died happy in the Star Wars section. The number of Grogu items felt infinite. I ended up getting a set of Grogu measuring cups and spoons. I had never seen them before and they were lightweight to bring back home. I stood in front of the book holders section for the longest time. You can place these holders on a notebook or book to store your reading glasses, pens, cell phone, and more. They were practical and cool. There were gigantic Squishmallows towards the back of the store. It made me so happy seeing them. I had thought about driving back home with them in the backseat, but it would have been an extremely expensive road trip. I also wanted a pair of typewriter bookends. They looked classy and neat. They were so heavy, though. Instead, i have a photo to remind me of their coolness. I went to pay for my Grogu items at the counter. I had a nice man help me out. There was a problem, though. He couldn't find the barcodes for my measuring cups and spoons. They weren't on the packaging. He consulted with his colleague. Apparently, the tags with barcodes were inside the cups and spoons, within their plastic packaging. Okay, how ridiculous is that move? The man had to cut open both items in their packaging to get to the tags to scan them. Thankfully, these items were for me, so it didn't matter that they were out of their packaging. Perhaps it would matter for a diehard collector who wants items in pristine condition, or a germaphobe who neither wants this man's fingerprints on the merchandise, nor mine. Anyway, all was great once both barcode tags were scanned. I paid for my items with a credit card. All was great. This store has a program called Millionaire's Club. Since this was my first time ever seeing this store, I didn't opt into it. You can get discounts on your orders here. If you do shop here often, it's worth your while. It was great finding this bookstore and spending an hour looking at everything. I loved it. If I'm ever back in this area, I'd return and check out the other stores at Nashville West Shopping Center, too. (286)
