In the way of "big box stores" Barnes & Noble is one of the good ones in my opinion. They make an honest effort to do right by authors and publishers. They have a wide range of books and this location also has a great selection of gifts and games. (If you're a Hunger Games fan or interested in all the hype, stop by!) There is a round Starbuck's in the center of the store which often has book themed treats and is a great place to use the free wi-fi. I have met here for self-start book clubs and they don't mind you hanging out and chatting for a bit. This store is clean, well-organized and well-stocked. Their focus is clearly on the Nook but the staff is friendly enough and willing to help when asked.

I love my B&N. I just get frustrated that they take so much longer to get their ebooks up than Amazon. They need to COMPETE if they want to stay around.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know they were being slow about getting their ebooks out, that's terrible! I really hope they do step it up and compete. I really do love B&N.
