My favorite things! by Donna S. at InsiderPages

Barnes and Noble is a great place to spend an hour or more! I could loose myself completely in the wide variety of books they have to offer. They always have a couple of sale tables as well. They also have a nice coffee shop to spend time in. The comfy chairs around the store make it seem like home.

PROS: Clean bathrooms

CONS:

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