Barnes & Noble.com

Barnes & Noble online is a great source of books, DVDs, and CDs. I've been ordering from them for so many years I honestly don't remember how long it's been--ever since, well, let's just say that Amazon drove me so batty that I refused to ever...

Okay okay, I know I don't read much and I am extremely picky about what I read. I don't like the romantic books filled with love scenes or tear-jerking lines nor do I like the fantasy books where everything is magical and enchanting. But when I do find ...

I recently professed my love for Barnes and Noble in another review. However, this love devolves into a love-hate relationship when it comes to the online part of the company (www.barnesandnoble.com or www.bn.com). ...

I never got used to online shopping that much when I was living in Canada. Well, there is that thing called eBay but that’s another story. Most of the things I actually did want would cost a lot in shipping and would usually come from out of the ...

Because I've been a voracious reader for as long as I can remember - according to family lore, I've been reading since I was two years old - it's only natural that I would love books and bookstores. I've visited quite a few in my lifetime, ranging from ...

Pros: It is Barnes and Noble.
Cons: None

I have been shopping at Barnes and Noble for as long as I can remember. I loved them when I was going through the store, browsing and buying good books to curl up with. I hated them during college when I thought they were making a lot of money selling...

Pros: Speedy delivery. Always some kind of deal going on.
Cons: None, except for price I would check Half.com first

In fact, I have an order pending now. I usually orders CD's or books and they have always come in one piece. When I bought my PC almost two years ago now, this was the first on-line site that I made a purchase at. I would guess that I have ordered at...

Pros: Fine selection, decent used book prices
Cons: Terrible customer service, just another (yawn) mass market company

I get really tired of spending several hundred dollars in books each semester, some of which I may not pick up again once the class is finished. Health Behavior and Its Determinants may make for a scintillating read while the class is going on,...

Would one call it literary irony that on the information super highway full of algorithms, binary code, HTML, and Java would be invaded by a virus known as paper and ink? Good...

Television is okay. I like to get together with my friends. I love spending time with my husband. What I need every day is to spend quiet time with a book. I have had this need since I was a small child and relied on my parents to take me ...

Barnes and Noble is a fine bookstore. I like to browse the aisles there and love the fact that they've got comfy couches and good coffee in the store. It's a great experience. The reason it works is that the folks from B&N realized that buying books ...

I received a gift certificate for barnes&noble.com a while back from a friend probably to buy myself some reading material. What did I spend it on? Not me. My daughter had been checking out and loving the Magic Treehouse series of books from the library ...

I am currently living overseas, which sometimes means that if I want to buy American goods, I have to shop online to get things I want. Since I'm in Germany, I especially find myself attracted to online booksellers for books in English. When I lived ...
