Always understaffed here. A employee (short with black and grey curly hair) was yelling at another in front of customers about not having her walkie turned on. Guess now I know why they can’t keep anyone. The poor people who are good are overworked and you can see it. Also doesn’t help they have to harass you about adding on a membership or this and the MAGAZINE thing. This company would do better if they did away with all that.
Love the atmosphere. They have everything you can think off.Its like having F.Y.E and Barns&Nobles all in one place. Loved it.
OMG WHAT IS THAT NOISE?Other than the deafening buzz, its a decent bookstore/toystore/yogurt shop/etc. Great for browsing bestsellers, but Ive rarely found a book I was looking for.But so, so loud. Why???
The store has a nice vibe to it. A large selection of books and collectibles. Prices are what one would expect from a retail store. The front door has been broken for 2 years now for some reason tho. Its almost a show piece at this point in itself.
So many things I wanted to buy. Great resourceful Book Store.
If you are a book lover you will love this place! Its a huge store with a vast collection of books on all subjects. Apart from books it has several other things like toys, games etc. A must visit if you are in this part of town!
Would give a better rating, staff were rude and unhelpful. They forced an unessesarily long line by only having one register open when 4 of the staff were behind the same counter. Older gentlemen was rude and wouldnt answer simple questions. Only a 2 because the younger staff ladies were actually nice and helpful. They had one girl working to death.
Great puzzle selection and books for kids. I was disappointed that all the bibles and bible study books were printed in China. After searching the internet and calling book publishers I found that American bible publishers have move all their printing operations to a largely atheist country like China. Who many accuse of intimidation and bias against the local Christian community in China. Bible publishers are profiteers too. Who figured?Yogurt Mountain is a disaster. Watery yogurt that I paid 11.00 for 1.25 ounces. No wonder I see few people in this area when I visit.
Overpriced, but cool selection. The lights make an annoying, loud, high frequency sound that is irritating. I go in to find new books and then order on other sites because of the price markup.
I used to enjoy going here, of course there are plenty of books I could browse all day if I wanted to. I would typically find a few books locate a table or overstuffed chair which used to be lined along the upstairs windows. It seems that the company has decided to do away with the tables and chairs; now only a few places to sit and one or two tables.
Always enjoy my experience here. Staff is friendly and helpful.
Went on the 4th because I couldnt wait to get the next book in a series. Not crowded store was clean and my book expert was very helpful. Thank you for being open
Love the atmosphere and the staff. Obviously I also like books!
Spacious and well organized. However, they did not have the book I was looking for.
I love this place. When I published my first novel, I was elated to have my book launch here. The staff, especially Sharon, were extremely hospitable and went above and beyond to make the event a success. The store itself is amazing--like a temple to the written word. They have something for everyone. If you happen to be out at the Greene, stopping here is a must.
Lovely store, beautiful staircase. Amazing manga section 4 rows front and back of older and newer manga
Loved the amount of clearance and sale items all over the store. Great selection. Would go again!
Very helpful over the phone.
This store is absolutely wonderful. Their Manga selection cant be beat for this area and the stores overall selection is amazing!
Amazing place to get away from busy life to sit read abook. The staff professional experts in books
Went there looking for something specific. The lady working the checkout noticed we were empty handed and after some friendly banter she pointed us to another store that might be able to help us find what we were after. Great customer service!
This place is awesome and has sooo much to look at. I did find a word search that I liked and purchased.
Very small lgbtq section for being such a big store
Love this place. They have an excellent selection of books and more. I will keep going back here every chance I get. Plus the membership is only $25 a year.
Books and Co is a great place for all kinds of books but what rally impressed me was their collectable and graphic novel section. Its really fantastic and has things you dont see in most brick and mortar stores. The prices arent horrible. Parking at the Greene is a pain but it isnt worth dinging the store for, its worth the effort to go here.
Its pretty spacious in there and with covid thats definitely a good thing. The service was great, my friend and I were asked if we needed any help finding anything. Additionally the cashier and the rest of the register crew were great talking to!
Has a huge selection of books and book series. Great place to look for any book, no matter how old, or obscure, or even if the series has a lot of books.
The store is spacious with a good supply of books, games, etc. Service was friendly and conscientious of COVID safety measures.
Beautiful store with a huge selection of amazing books etc at great prices
I love this book store. My wife, child, and I love making trips here. There is a yogurt mountain inside that offers frozen yogurt and sherbet. I’d happily give it 5 stars; however, at checkout I was badgered by the cashier. Interacting with him can be likened to a barrage of internet pop-ups. The checkout process took entirely too long as he tried to push promotion after promotion on to me.I’ve purchased other items from this location and didn’t have the same experience. So, I only deducted one star from the review.
No fantastic place for every book you can think of, comic book memorabilia, some toys, and a relaxed atmosphere
This was the first time that I had been in this store, it is located at the Greene Mall. Wife and daughter have been here before.
Loved this place. While I look for a piece of literature my kids check out the toys upstairs..
So many books! They have great employees!
Love it! So many books on many topics. I could spend my whole day in here. Plus, its one of few remaining book stores. They generally have good deals and prices usually.
This place has some exceptional staff. I was browsing the store just now, and this amazing young lady manning the information booth noticed that I was aimless and came up to me so I could ask my question. Now that is stellar attention to detail!
Great selection of books and helpful staff! There was a misunderstanding at checkout and the manager was very friendly while helping us!
Good collection of books,knick knacks, and Funko Pops. The frozen yogurt is also a nice treat.
I come here often. Really nice place with a friendly open atmosphere. I would give it five stars but its not the best at getting new releases as they come out. (Maybe my reading interests are too niche?)
They have a really good selection, I like the layout and I spent an hour in here. I will definitely be back.
This place truly is a wonderland! I love the lay out of the store, it really caters to everyone! I can confidently say I would love to shop here again.😄🥰
Great deals on used books everything else is a little pricy.
Books & Co is one of the only two story bookstores that I have found near me. They have the newest releases and they even have pick of the month books. They have selected books for teens, children, and young adults. On top of having the newest releases, they also tend to have plenty of classics. The upstairs is just as full as downstairs with board games, puzzles, and figures. You can find movies and series downstairs as well as mugs, journals, and such. My visits have always been pleasant, the staff always extremely kind and willing to help in any way. There was one instance when I was shopping for my cousin off of a giant to read list, the staff lady that assisted me was willing to go through book after book to see if it was on the shelves and then helped me find them as well. Books & Co will forever be one of my favourite places to visit!!
Neat store, but sort of unorganized, hard to find staff, but not a bad experience
Friendly staff, wonderful selection. Or favorite is the kids section! Lots of books, toys and activities to purchase.
It used to be better when it was located in Town and Country shopping center. I went twice a month at the old location. I have only been there once in their new location.Doesnt feel right. Dont get me wrong, it is a good book store, I just dont like the location now.
Half Price Books has a better selection.
Not the selection Im used to. Great staff though.
Nice place with lots of items. Id love to go again :)
I took a dump here once, very clean bathrooms....also where I see all the basic white girls taking their prom pics
The service was great. Mary was a big help and a delight to talk with!
All genres of books. Clean place
We love our visits to Books and Co and yogurt treats.
Selection, nice layout, inviting atmosphere, friendly energetic staff. Enjoy!
Good selection...nice customer service :)
So nice loved the yogurt too
Great selection great staff
A great place to find books and unique gifts!
Very nice and clean store. Didnt find what I needed but its a nice place to find some books, board games or gifts!
Great place
I didnt need assistance but after overhearing an employee not ordering something a customer requested, I chose not to purchase anything from here. The store was not crowded and no other person was in the line that would be delayed by helping. Its been awhile since I have been in Books & Co. I doubt that I will return.
Plethora of choices of books! Great environment and very comforting. Theres a yogurt place inside that really helps the relaxing atmosphere. Kinda sucks that its in a busy area but definitely a diamond in the rough.
This is a fantastic bookstore! Its huge! And beautiful! The selection of books is great, the layout is easy to understand with many helpful signs and the employees are nice. Besides books, they have other things like cool shirts, bags, toys and the like. Whoever buys for them has a good grasp of whats hot, whats always hot and an appreciation of the classics, too. They also have Yogurt Mountain in the store, which is a really good add your own toppings yogurt shop.
Great 2 story book store
Love their inventory.
Great place to hang out but you can find prices on books cheaper elsewhere
Single most helpful sales representative I have ever experienced! I received all coupons and deals possible, super friendly, covid19 safe, and overall an amazing experience!
If you like books, its probably pretty cool but 3 stars since there is a frozen yogurt place located inside
We were looking for a very special gift and the very awesome young lady who helped us did a great job. We were looking for childrens Spanish books and a cuddly gift. She knew exactly what to show us and she spoke Spanish as well which was amazing.
I legitimately love coming here when I have down time. They have a wonderful selection of books, chill staff, they try and keep the place relatively trendy. They have a frozen yogurt shop here which makes for a refreshing treat. The only thing that could be improved is if they could get more comfortable chairs. All in all this place is pretty nice.
I could spend all day in here. Their prices are good. The selection is good and the staff is friendly.
Great place, So many books to choose from. It is always nice and orderly. The employees are always happy to help you find anything youre looking for.
A very pleasant book store. Their collection is quite vast and the staff is always very helpful. Plus, its nice to get some frozen yogurt after buying some new books.
If you want it they have it. If they dont, they will order it and within days you will! Great selection for everyone and the amount of magazines is astounding. Staff is knowledgeable and extremely friendly!
It is so cool there and all of the people are so kind and great book choices.
Our 3 year old loves coming here to browse the kid section. Always quiet and has a Starbucks inside.
Gorgeous and huge bookstore in the Green. Plenty of well-organized sections for all your needs. 2nd floor is aimed towards younger audience and has very cool merchandise and books.
A good book store to visit.
Walked in asked for a specific book for a Birthday gift walked back to the register paid and was out in 15 minutes. Perfect
This place has always been my go-to in the past for books but not anymore. Everything is overpriced and the toy, accessories and tchotchke section is growing and growing they might as well change their whole stores direction... You also have better luck grabbing a spell book and conjuring and employee than you do finding one.
Nice place
Awesome bookstore! Awesome people!
Just a nice and quiet place to roam and check out everything.
Pros: Huge bookstore, very nice and appealing on the inside. Tons of variety and always some good clearance finds also. I love the smell of books as you walk into the store.Cons: bathrooms are gross. Youd expect them to look a lot nicer considering the rest of the store is beautiful, but they arent nice and they arent clean. Store seems to have removed almost all seating and tables. Used to come here to work in the afternoons, and there were comfy chairs plus plenty of tables on the second floor, but when I went a few weeks ago, most were gone. Would most definitely prefer a coffee shop over frozen yogurt here also.
This is a nice place to go and look for a good book to sit down and read but the guilty little secrets I go in here is for the little yogurts stand thats inside. they have really good yogurt that you can create your own with the with the toppings you want. Then I like to sit down at a table and read my book before I go on my walks. If my review was helpful please like and thank you.
One of my favorite bookstore locations Ive visited. In the heart if The Greene, Books&Co has a countless selection of books, magazines, comics, fun items, and more. It is a beautiful location where you can easily spend an afternoon browsing books and grabbing a seat somewhere in the store.
Helpful, made sure I found what I was looking for at a reasonable price.
I drove an hour just to visit this place. It was SOOOOO worth it!!!!
If you love books and cool bookstore atmospheres then you will love this place! Its just a nice place to sit and read books after walking around the Greene for hours 😂
This book store his big and has very helpful employees. One gentleman named Topher really had a lot of knowledge on authors and style of writing I was looking for.
This store has a very large kids section. My daughters spent an hour here easily, enjoying all the books and toys.
Great service and very helpful staff..even when they dont carry the books you want, helped me lookup other book stores in town. One one carried Japanese Moe Kare books.Thanks had to order on line
