I like the idea of supporting a local owned business. They have several locations but this appears to be the largest one Ive been to. It is two stories of books new and used. Having a cart was a nice touch and the staff was friendly. Are you a book lover? They also give you trade in credit on your old books. ππππππππππ
Before I retired I never had time to enjoy reading but now that I am it has quickly become my favorite hobby. Gottwals has a wonderful atmosphere with a knowledgeable staff. I typically spend 30-45 minutes here just browsing. Thank you Gottwals for helping me discover a new passion.
I really enjoy this store. Usually I go in to browse, but the staff is very friendly and helpful when you are looking for specific titles. They can search other stores, as well, to find your book. While there, I could hear the staff calling customers to tell them they found their book and several times they were calling to tell them they found it at a discounted price & were refunding them some money! Its a great resource for teachers, tutors, home-schoolers and book lovers. Its also the perfect spot for purchasing books for special occasions and holidays.
Well laid-out, well organized, huge selection, and a store-credit program? I like this place more than most new bookstores.
This was a lovely used book store, clean and well organized. Two floors of books and toys and teacher supplies. I thought the used book prices were a little too high.
Our favorite bookstore. Love this place. Wide selection of used and new books at reasonable prices!
Ive always really liked Gottwals. They always have such a good selection of books and at a great price.
One of my favorite book stores and when they dont have a book they will call their nearby stores and see if they have it.
This was our first visit to the bookstore we browsed around, made and paid for our selections. At no time while shopping did any of the three cashiers offer to assist us, as we were leaving we decided to look around downstairs. While browsing one of the cashiers came hurring down as if to watch us. Little did she know there was a customer already downstairs shopping, without being watched, or intimated. She actually needed help and stopped the cashier to ask several questions. This was our first and last visit to this bookstore. Please treat everyone the same with decency and respect.
Love this place, the staff is super friendly! If you are looking for a specific book I would call ahead first, they have called around and found books for me and either hold them at another location or get it sent to their store, or special ordered it for me. They go above and beyond and it is such a cool book store π .
I like there set up. I like a good set of the collection of random books they have. However, I do have an issue with the fact that they discriminate against anything that is non-Christian unless it is a fiction story. They consider everything else to be new age and that paganism is the same as occult. They recommend going to books a million. Apparently, Buddhism is the same as Satanism and Hinduism and Judaism etc. I had really high hopes when I walked into the store and proceeded to put every book down and leave following the last interaction I had. Mind you, I had found easily a dozen books of interest. I simply can not support a store that discriminates against others.
Very nice and clean store with excellent choices of books. The staff is very kind and helpful
Could spend hours here. Love the option to buy good quality used books as well.
The store is very nice. Lot of neat things including toys for young kids and the staff is very helpful
Wonderful staff, calming atmosphere, great selection for children, and good prices. Very nice.
Interesting, you can buy books and if you leave sticker on you can bring them back, get store credit.
Very interesting place. A really cool book store.
Great place. Staff was helpful. Clean, happy place
Love to read, they have reasonably priced books.
Love the selection of books while supporting local businesses
Awesome place and the folks there are friendly and very helpful.
Love the amazing variety of new and used books available to purchase. Also enjoy the great selection of unusual gifts. This visit I especially liked the big selection of Christmas books grouped together for easy shopping.
Tried to find some used kids books at a decent price. Nonexistent at this place. I even saw kids books that had the Ollie sticker ripped off and they were priced double the amount. You can get them from ollies for usually $3 or less. Way overpriced.
I love the customer service and when ever I call thru go beyond to make sure I find the books that I need.
The service is a1. I love this bookstore amazing deals and great customer service.
First time going to the new store and was amazed! I love it. I will be back!
Absolutely very professional with their customer service ππΌπ! The atmosphere with the people who were there was very friendly.
Love the new building. Awesome selection, great deal!
Love this place they have a great trade in policy fair prices huge selection
Very nice place. Staff is very friendly and helpful.
This was my first time at this new location.They have a ton of books there they may need to expand again as it is narrow walking threw the store.The staff were great to say the least and very helpful.
Beautiful, new, expanded location! 2 floors of lightly used and brand new books, toys, educational tools, school supplies, and many more things to inspire learning. They also have a used book trade program that is quick and convenient. My 3 yr old loves the new kids section and often meets a new friend while shes there. In a world where everything is online, it is great to have a place to nurture the love of real books. β€
Best used book store around!
Dropped off a ton of books and got $177.00 in Store credit!
This place is a book lover on a budgets dream come true!!! They have a massive selection!!I can not say enough about this amazing local owned bookstore!! The prices are excellent on their used books! I picked up a hardback book for $6.97 and we all know hardbacks are $30 new.The staff are all friendly and helpful. I definitely need to mention how phenomenal Katelyn was, she helped find the titles I was on the hunt for and put in for the books to be transferred there from there other stores that she didnβt have on hand. She was such a huge help since I had my three kiddos with me that I was helping pick out books with!They also have some toys the kids can play with in the children section which was an added plus. My five year old loved being able to push our books around a little while I was still browsing their Selections.
Large selection of new and gently used books. Helpful and friendly staff
I absolutely love this bookstore! Theres books from wall to wall & 2 floors of books! If youre a reader then you have to check this store out! Theyre prices are beyond reasonable, a brand new book costs anywhere from $7 to $9 dollars! They have a trade in program, you can get books with a sticker on the back of them and theyll give you store credit to buy more books! The ones with stickers gets you more store credit but you can also trade in books without stickers. Well worth the trip to get great books & other items! Check it out soon! πππ
Cristian based used book store. Good prices as well!
Very helpful and friendly staff! They were also very knowledgeable about their books and products and made my shopping time there a pleasure. Business earned! Thanks.
Always a great selection of books, new and used! Also enjoy the trade in option.
Great selection
I love this bookstore!!! I could spend hours roaming the bookshelves. Traded in my books for a great deal and bought some new ones for amazingly low prices. Two floors of books makes for tons of finds, and I personally love the book related apparel and trinkets. I recommend this bookstore to everyone!! :)
I like it. Had trouble with their organization set up..but that could just be customers walking around and changing their minds and putting a book just anywhere.
Favorite book store. Bring grandkids a few times a year when they visit they love it there too.
If you love books, you need to go here.. they have everything..
Who knew Gottwals could get better!?!? Well, obviously, by adding more books!! βΊοΈ Love the new location! So much more room, more books, and a lot of fun toys, bookish swag, and church and teacher supplies!! A lot of really cool book themed items Id only seen online before! They are always so sweet and helpful too! Definitely check them out for any of your book needs! Shop local and support this company!!
Alot of selection
Great book selection. There is something for everyone. The staff was very polite and helpful. I think I might want to work here. To the staff: great job.
Always a pleasure
We have so few bookstores of any kind, nearby, and this is an inviting, well stocked store with friendly employees wearing masks.
I would like to thank DAVID who went above and beyond this morning. I was in a bit of a quandary when I called, but, your patient attention to my problem and your willingness to aggressively seek a solution was greatly appreciated. Take care and God bless!
Helpful staff. Great books and prices.
Really nice book store. Knowledgeable staff. Lovely silhouettes on the walls. Wide variety, including home school material. Very clean, neat & organized. Ill be back.
Wonderful selection of new and used books! Will visit often!
Oh this place is awesome. Its neat ..and have play area for kids while parents looking for books. Bathroom are neat too. And cheap books. For sure we will come back sooner
Great place. Super nice employees. Huge selection.
They didnt have any books that I was looking for.
Amazing Book Store right in the heart of Warner Robins! Thank you Gottwals for promoting reading and education in such a fun and affordable way!
I should probably open up my own seeing as how much time and money I spend in these stores as is. So, you trade in your books to get credit with Gottwals. You buy books from them and can return them for even more store credit if they still have the Gottwals sticker on them. The credit you have pays for 50% of your final total and you pay the rest. Its one of the best things in the world.
Great, small bookstore for used and new books. Also offers store credit for book trade ins. All in all, its a much better option than any of the larger chain bookstores and the staff here make all the difference.
Great selection! Helpful staff! Always a great experience.
There arent many independent local bookstores left. Im glad Gottwals is coming through the COVID storm. Great selection, and if they dont have it at the location you visit, theyre glad to quickly check all their other locations. Staff are unfailingly helpful, and friendly without the smarminess taught by some big retail chains. Very happy with Gottwals!
Decent used books, has 2 floors
As always a great place to shop for books.
They didnt have what I was looking for but they where very helpful. They told me they could order it for me.
I canβt believe I just discovered this place after almost 2 years of living here. I bought 4 books today for the price of one book Iβd get at BAM or Barnes and Noble. Theyβre even cheaper than Amazon.Their prices are amazing! And you can return them after youβre done for 50% credit toward more books. They also give military discount! Itβs a cute and cozy store with such a variety of books.
The only thing I dont like is the way the books r arranged by author, rather than broken down by genre. Otherwise a great place 2 buy π
Such a cute store. I love that they do a summer reading challenge for students. They have a great selection of everything!
This is a great place to buy and trade used books. Sometimes they also have new books/new releases. The staff are always super friendly and willing to go the extra mile to help you. They will track down books at other stores of theirs and get it to the location you need it at for no extra charge. Highly recommend.
Not terribly thrilled with the selection but the staff were helpful and polite. I realize that this is the Bible Belt but does every local business have to play Christian music? It doesnβt really invite one to linger and browse. After a bit I just got tired of hearing it and left.
Always awesome. Would rate ten stars if I could.
I always enjoy going into Gottwals. Nine times out of ten I can find what Im looking for. And if I cant the staff is always willing to help me find it. They are always friendly. I like that. It makes me feel welcome.
Great staff Alice, Jules, Joy. Shane and Abby has done an outstanding job with hiring great staff who knows all about π very friendly and helpful and knowledgeable when it comes to helping you find what you are looking for. Staff always excited to see you. Great job
Always a great place to go, people are friendly and always find a good book to read.
A place to enjoy browsing books from classics to new releases. Trade books that you no longer want including school text of all kinds to get credits toward new purchases or even cash. Friendly helpful staff to assist you with finding that hard to find book. Several store locations.
It was great, very friendly, love going there!
We love this place! Its such a wonderful contribution to our community. We love going in to browse or trade in books for credit. The staff is very helpful and its such a great place to take little ones.
The staff here is so friendly, and there is always a great selection of books. The book return system keeps be coming back for more. While Ive never called regarding the whereabouts of a book, Ive heard many customers pleased with the quick response of the staff. This location (the original) is the best!
They bought out Lifeway bookstore and they have some great Bibles!!
Great selection at reasonable prices. They help you locate whatever you need...
The best book store in the world. Love that you can find older books and the used book prices are great. Always avke to find new authors and/or series to read. My 2 daughters are also huge fans
Great service! They didnt have the book my grandson wanted, but ordered it & had it in the next day! Great prices!
Great books & friendly service.
Best place, best prices, best employees. Always love to go find all I need and many treasures. Always helpful in finding anything you need. Owners are the BEST!!!
We go to Gottwals for books and puzzles for our granddaughter, although they sell a wide variety of other books and items. Its a great store with very helpful people.
Friendly staff, wide selection, amazing prices. If they dont have they can get it for you.
If you are looking to read, visit Gottwals Books. Visited them and found so many books for all ages. Great prices and Trade program. Thanks Gottwals!
The best for books. Knowledgeable staff. Will find the book you are looking for. Great prices & selection.
Personal could have been more helpful but the guy did help me
Staff is friendly and helpful. Store is a little cramped, but thats simply a result of the staff doing the best they can to keep a large selection of books available. Tends to not have newer books except for extremely popular authors.
We always find most hard to find books. When we sell our old we are paid in credits to use toward buying other books.
Great selection and prices
Great place to buy used books. I save a great deal of money buying my books here. Highly recommend it!.
I can always find something to read. I have my favorite authors and if they dont have what I am looking for, they order it for me.
Always amazing people and love going in there never knowing what treasure you will find!
They got the books I needed. They were very helpful.
Great selection of used books and church supplies.
