When I was still in school, I lived in the Back Bay and this was the closest bookstore, so I was here frequently. The selection is pretty average - your standard, run of the mill chain bookstore…

This place isn't too bad for a Barnes and Noble. The Starbucks is a little bit out of the way in relation to the store itself. It's not that great a date destination in terms of coffee places, as…

So rating a mega-chain is not so cool, ja? I agree, but i totally rocked out here the other day because of the book search pc kiosk.

Great bookstores are becoming extinct in Boston and Barnes & Noble is one of the few left standing. Remember Waterstone's or that great used book store on Newbury? Already I can't remember their…

I'm at the point, finally, where I do not even CARE about their selection of books. The music they play in there is HORRENDOUS. The musical selection today was some post-James Blunt catawauling…

"Omg, like there's a Starbucks Cafe here, Jenna!" exclaimed the 12 year old in front of me. Actually, she was probably 23 and married, because she had a fat diamond on her finger. I've never seen…

When I was still a naive college student (but not enough to not read) I would buy my books here. They have a B&N card, which you have to pay $25 for, and you only get 10% off. While it technically…

Out of all the B&N, this one has to be my favorite. Why? Cause I can find Asiana magazines here! That and just the mere convenience of it, makes a great browse and veg spot.

Whenever I'm in the Purdential Center and I want to buy something that won't leave me hungry for the next week, I'll go to the Barnes and Noble bookstore. They have a massive magazine section that ha

Can you say bitch-faced service? I've never had a problem with any Barnes and Nobles except this one. I asked a dude where I could find a book and he rolled his eyes and guffawed like I was…

The B&N at the Pru is continently located, comfortable, and surprisingly quiet in an otherwise chaotic area. So what's wrong with it? The price of the books. The store includes a few places to get…

B&N is the center of my world. Mostly because it is in the middle of where I live, shop and eat. It is no wonder that shopping for books is the best rated shopping experience of any type. Although,…

Sit on a chair, in a corner or on the windowsill and do some reading. Browse books until you're exhausted, then run next door and grab a cup of coffee. Rejuvenated, then run back and do some more…

Books, yes. They have some good deals on books which is always nice. They always have tables or seats open to sit at which is nice. And of course, what is a trip to B&N without a cup of cofee.
