For a moment I almost forgot that I was tucked away in wintery Wisconsin until I saw a whole bunch of Wisconsin guide books and remembered why they were there..
I really love the size and layout of this particular B&N. The different levels really help break up the space and creates various nooks and crannies where you can plop down and read a good book or magazine. There's no shortage of seating, which is also a huge plus - I feel like a lot of bookstores discourage their patrons from sitting around and reading by limiting the number of seats in the store. Not a problem here!
I love the "sale annex" as well as the arrangement of tables and chairs on the upper level. It makes B&N seem almost library-like. If I didn't live so far away, B&N would be my study/workplace of choice (especially with the free wifi).
See ya soon!
