The bookstores appearance is nice, the coffee shop staff are nice, the bookstore staff is a little rocky but okay none the less. My biggest issue, being a college student, was the fact that I ordered a textbook I needed, and the only reason why I ordered it was because it would ship in 2-4 business days. I paid $70.00 and shipping and my book was never delivered. I ordered it on a Wednesday (09/07/16) and today (09/15/16) my book has not arrived yet. This would not have been an issue had the staff kept me up to date. When I called earlier this morning, I was finally informed that the company the book was ordered from itself was NEVER even shipped. I was Told I would have my book on 09/10/16 and by Tuesday 09/13/16 at the latest. Needless to say I will not be ordering any sort of book from this store again. Very disappointed with the entire situation.

Some of the reviews appear to be created only to improve overall score. Staff is polite but a little condescending if you ask about books or genres that the management has decided to censor. Censorship of the stock they carry is certainly their right but not expected in a used book store. Not sure if they literally *burn the books* they do not approve of or what. A lot of the stock is stale - people who are serious about books are probably going elsewhere - Staff advised that they only have what people bring for trade for used books.

Best used bookstore in the area. They take almost anything in for trades and pay cash for current best-sellers. They will also order new books for you at a big discount and will even call you when they arrive, which in my experience, was just two days after I ordered them. They also offered to order a book that was no long being printed for me, but I decided to wait to see if I really wanted it. I didnt get a chance to try the adjacent coffee shop, but will on my next trip.

I finally got to visit this book store Ive been trying to hit for months. I was happy to find it was a used book store and that it had many great titles. At discount bookstores I usually find books that no one - including me - will ever or have ever read. At Books For Less I found several books I was looking for like one title by Pat Conroy. I also found something for my 20 month old who enjoyed playing in the back childrens area while I looked around.

I agree with some of the other reviews they censor a lot of the books. They also made a comment of burn books which I think is a little ridiculous. Its theie right but they censor a lot. The staff is somewhat friendly but look at you like you have two heads if you ask for books they dont allow in the store. They also have a bunch of loud kids making the coffee. Nevertheless, the books they do allow you can get for a cheap price.

Weve followed this bookstore from two previous locations... My, what a GREAT TRANSITION in the three places. We travel quite a way to get there from our home - and its worth every mile. We shop, we rest by the "fireplace", we have a cuppa and a sandwich... Were "at home" with the place and the people ! Going there tomorrow to do our Christmas Shopping (as we did last year).

Didnt quite come through... I ordered two of the same book on a Monday and needed them for Saturday. I had to pay in advance and was told they should be in by Thursday. One book came in but wasnt in the condition I thought it would be and the other book didnt come in until after a week later. I told them I was not happy with the transaction and they were very good about giving me a refund.

Cosy book store that offers both new and used books. They also engage in consignment on books allowing you to trade in your old books for store credit. However, the credit for books you have traded in is only valid towards used books. I really like the personable environment and staff and also the fact that there is a cafe discretely attached that you can access from the book store.

Good selection of new and used books and audio books. Good prices. Great staff. Large childrens book area. I love the couch where I can sit and read. Also outfoor seating area to hang out with your literate friends. Connects to the Boulder Creek Coffee shop next door. Closed on Sundays.

Books for Less is true to their name. I have shopped ebay & amazon & have found that the books cost more than Books for Less. If they do not have a particular book you need they are always so willing to order it for you. Great prices & superb customer servies. Keep up the good work.

Great book store, they have a decent trade in policy: store credit. Bring the books and theyll give you a certain amount of store credit for them. There is no limit to the credit you get, nor is there an expiration on it. I have been doing this for years.

This is my favorite used book store. I think my family and I have more than 600 book points here that you can use for coupons. Its comfortable end cozy with seating and a coffee shop inside, this is like a coffee shop from a cute book or movie.

I lamented not having a used book store near for a couple years until BFL came! Great store and staff, plus, great coffee. CHEAP BOOKS!! Great kids section.

Very friendly staff. Good selection of Christian books amongst other kinds. Relaxing coffee shop adjacent to the store. Little table and chairs outside.

Sam Nelms

Liked the gimmick- books by weight- but there wasnt much in the way of selection. A miss for me.

Lisa Tate

They always have AP books and other school materials on hand and very affordably priced

Richard Drexel

Its okay. A decent selection of fiction books. Some areas highly disorganized.
