This is one of my favorite bookstores, it's nice and relaxed, you can sit and sip some coffee and leaf through your books too. The location is convienient, and it's easy to locate books in the store.

PROS: Location, Coffee Shop

CONS:

An easy-access resource for books of any stripe, with impressive children's, business and bestseller sections.
