I have to be honest and say that I buy most of my books on line. The reason I am reviewing this place is because my wife and I immediately come to this place if we have any time to kill before our movie starts at the Tempe Marketplace. We were here the other day and I liked the variety of magazines they have in the front so I don't have to walk all the way to back for some mindless reading when killing time. I love American history and they had a very nice section of Time Magazine specialty issues about the American Revolution. Gotta give it to Barnes and Nobles for enhancing my down time in the best way.
