Although there seems to have been some harsh reviews in the past, I found this bookstore to be very…read moresimilar to the competitors that are found in the Indy area (Borders). Very similar line of merchandise: Novels, music, toys, graphic novels, and a cafe/coffee shop. There were plenty of staff on the floor to assist if needed and the condition of the store was clean and well stocked. I didn't have any trouble finding what I was looking for. If you like reading actual books and owning them, then stop by the Muncie Mall if you are in the area. This store is large enough to have its own outside entrance on the east side of the mall.

Poor Books a Million, how do you hang on?…read more When I first moved to Florida, I shopped at Books a Million because it was almost everywhere and Borders and Barnes & Noble weren't. The trouble was that they never seemed to discount anything and their savings card didn't seem to help, but cost me to have it. It seemed to be more for the Joe Muggs coffee shop inside the store and the trinkets at the cash register. This store is no different from the others. They have the magazines ("news stand") on one wall toward the outside of the store (the restrooms are near there) and Joe Muggs is at the mall entrance. The books and games, etc. are in-between the two. It's a compact store, but probably sufficient given the population and the likelihood that someone will actually buy. While I saw a few people working, no one bothered to say anything. The coffee shop was a lonely place, also, with only two customers. If it was Starbucks, they'd be having knock-down-drag-outs for seats. Nothing out of place for Books a Million. How do they stay in business?

I stopped here and found them closed when they should have been open but I called their number and…read moreI was told he was running late and would be there soon. I waited about 10 minutes and he showed up. I was interested in an old recipe books for some artwork I was working on. I love old bookstores, especially ones like these where books are just stacked everywhere. I found what I was looking for here and the cost was very reasonable. I went up to pay and he also told me I could pick a bookmark that his girlfriend made to take home with me. Right up my alley. I looked around at some of the other book types and picked up a couple extra books I thought I would like. He definitely had a lot of interesting books, records, posters, etc. Also to note the parking lot that was behind the store had signs that the parking was only for some insurance company and you would be towed, I asked him about it and he said the building used to belong to an insurance company and yes it was the parking for the bookstore. I will be going back to check out other items as I did not have enough time this trip.

Such a neat spot!!…read more It was hard for my mom and I not to spend hours and hours here. The only reason we didn't was because I was wearing my baby and he was starting to meltdown for nap time. The selection is great. And the organization is honestly amazing for a used bookstore. I love pretty close, so this is a dangerous discovery. Can't get over the prices! My only qualms with the store come from the service; the woman checking us out was wildly unfriendly.

This is quite and eclectic shop! They have aisles and aisles of books.

All of the books we got were in great shape (though you should definitely look through them before you buy), and even the children's section was organized. I would definitely go back again to look through more options for myself as well. It's also great to know you are supporting your local library programs!

This location was the very first Half Price Books location I ever shopped at. I never knew the…read morecompany existed before I moved to Cincinnati, and once I discovered it I shopped here all the time when I lived nearby. That being said, this location always has a really decent selection of stuff to go through. I've purchased everything from DVDs, Books, & CDs to game systems and IPods here. The staff is always super nice and helpful. I've never attempted to sell anything to this, or any, location before. From what I hear, they really low-ball you (not just here, any location)..so, I probably won't attempt to sell anything to keep my good opinion of them going. As for a purchase only secondhand place..I love it here!

They can even help track down some out of stock books. This was a sad year with the original owner Chris passing but it is still going strong.

Don't hesitate to ask if you're overwhelmed by the small town independent set up, the ladies can absolutely point you in the right direction.
