In all of my years of shopping here, I am still greeted with smiling faces and helpful customer service. The quality of their Joe Muggs coffee products remain up to par, and they havent dramatically increased their prices within the last 10 years, unlike the other nearby coffee chains, who I have noticed very dramatic and sudden price increases in the past 5 years.Still a great place to bring your kids to explore, and they have books that are reasonably priced for them! 💜
This store is incredible, not only do they have a very large selection of books but they also have toys, games, coffee, and lots of other products and options. We found things that a baby, child, and adult would like and it is suitable for all ages. I even found classics that my mother use to read to me when I was growing up. So excited to get the same books for my baby.
Always a nice experience. I have shopped here for years.Never a rude employee. Always clean bathrooms.Well stocked and isles are not cluttered.
Somewhat friendly.Did not have knowledge of if item was in the store.Was helpful in looking for it but should have been able to find the answer on the computer system.
This is a great store! I love that there’s a bookstore that my 12 yr old daughter ASKS to frequent! Their selection is amazing, their coffee shop has yummy offerings... it’s an all around win!
There were so many things there to read and it was quite so I could read peacefully.
Great service! Great tea and coffee! Excellent employees! The store was in FANTASTIC condition. This place was an absolute pleasure. I used to manage a Books-A-Million, so I know what Im talking about when I say this location is immaculate and exemplary. Great selection, great features. Loved it.
Big store lots of books but pricey
Friendly staff, very helpful. Pleasant atmosphere.
Great place to spend a whole day!
Great gift for all ages.
I love books. I love coffee. Put those together; I am in heaven. I think Joe Mugs is one of the top places to get coffee. I got the affogato frappuccino - it was to die for. I am always impressed by the knowledge and hospitality of the staff. They are always ready and willing to help me find exactly what I need. Even things I didnt know I need! The store is very clean and organized. A must stop at the Hammond Square.
Clean store. Extremely helpful workers. My favorite BAM. The employees go out of their way to help you find whatever you may need. Though I will say that I find it a bit hard to find the books I was looking for. Some of their selection is oddly placed. They also lack the amount of hardcover books I prefer to see. Looking for hardcover books there is difficult. Though that have several good bundles and collectors editions.
The nicest employees working the register. I wanted a particular book, they looked it up and went and got it for me. Made the check out process so easy.
Definite place to go for books. The selection is unbelievable. Logically organized. It was clean and they kept the stacks orderly. We usually drive 30 minutes to and hour to get to the competitors. Without hesitation this will be our go-to place. Friendly folks. The coffee was great and the young lady that waited on us just cheerful, efficient, and downright nice. The store employees were great as well. We will gladly make the 1+ hour drive from now on.
Great place to shop, friendly staff, great management!!
Always enjoy trips to books-a-million.
I visit once a year. This year I noticed that they sell gently used books at a discounted price which is a nice feature. Always a nice selection of bargain priced books in a variety of genres, and a wide selection of topics which are easy to locate. Looking forward to returning again next year!
The selection is good but some of the displays with books seem to be biased on certain topics.
The coffee was good. Fou d the magazine I wanted no problem. The store was quite and clean.
I do enjoy this place. Just wish they would have more books
We found our books easily and the check-out girl was very helpful!
Joe mugs is literally the main reason I even go. Best coffee and inexpensive.
You can find ANY book you want and/or need at a wonderful welcoming place with great attention!!!
Good selection..pleasant people and atmosphere.
Great store. Very organized and employees seemed happy and very helpful.
Amazing customer service clean place books and merch stays in great condition
Always greeted upon entering the store. Great selection.
Friendly service and a large selection
Love the little coffee shop.
My Grandson and I LOVE going to Books a Million!! There is so much to look at !❣
Good prices
Nice selection.
Not as good as Barnes and Noble
The best place to get my bookworm fix. My only complaint is that it was a bit too difficult to find a very popular book series. But the people are helpful, and the coffee is top notch! 👍
Good selection
Great assortment of books and you can also.have a delicious cup of coffee while you browse. They now offer happy hour drinks as well.
Good, I would have given 5 stars but theyve removed all the comfy chairs in the coffee shop. Why?
Lots of books to choose from. Not crowded for Christmas considering its so close. Friendly staff.
Great selection of books and got exactly what I needed for my book club. But, I did not like the checkout process. They ask you to join their book membership club and then they try and trick you into circling 3 magazines that you would ultimately have to pay for. Its pushy and I rather buy online now to avoid the whole thing.
Its a well-organized bookstore. What more could you want? Bathroom needs renovated, its kind of run down in there, but the store is nice!
Nice store and employees
This store has a great selection of books and magazines. They also have t-shirts and collectible figures and accessories, also themed board games. The store is always neat and clean, which means that the staff is paying attention to the details. I also like the selection of beverages at the Joe Muggs coffee shop. I like the imaginative flavor combinations they come up with for their various coffee drinks. All in all it is a very pleasant place to shop for books with an atmosphere that cannot be duplicated by online book sellers.
Didnt have the magazine that I wanted
Friendly staff lots of novels/books in stock.
Who doesnt like Books-A-Million? I like to wander around pick a few books I think I might like to read. Grab a cup a joe at tell mugs sit a nice comfy chair flip through the books. I love it
I come in every couple of weeks just to look around. The staff is friendly and helpful. However, what I tend to look for (ImagineFX magazines and digital arts books/mags) is a hit or miss deal. Although...if I wonder around enough I can end up finding some hidden gems that result in great reference books for concept art. I wanted to say 3.7 stars but Ill rounded it off to 4.
Comfy, I always love to come here. has books and fun items/gifts. I wish the YA section was a bit more organized though
I went here after a death in the family looking for either a specific book (out of a list of several optics I saw were in stock online), or something in a specific genre for my child to cope/understand the loss. When I asked the associate this hello to direct me she was very kind and did see it showed the books were in stock. Unfortunately she also confirmed nothing was alphabetized or in any specific order other than generalized topic areas. No one offered to help me find the books I was looking for, and I wandered around until I just gave up and left. Not exactly a great experience, even more so under the circumstances I was under. Staff was nice at least though! Not really their fault that the company doesnt have better organization.
Really nice establishment that I usually frequent, however, Id like to see an expansion in the African American section.
The staff is always super friendly and willing to help
The employees are very nice and helpful.
Great store with excellent selections
Books, books, books. Especially like the discounted books! Please make them easier to find, like in their own section, rather than mixed in throughout the store.
In the area for business...Autumn was such a delight. Friendly and a great smile. That goes a long ways. Especially in todays world. The coffee shop was great. Loved the chocolate batter frappe. Against the diet but hey a treat is good to have. Love the coffee too. Thank you.
Book selection is amazing.
Who doesnt love a great book store? I know about e-readers and ebooks. Im actually a big fan of those too. But theres something about holding a paperback novel thats relaxing, maybe nostalgic, and it never runs out of charge! Was having a little difficulty finding a specific book I was looking for and went to the clearly marked information desk. the man working there was helping another customer so I got in line to wait my turn. another employee walking past put down what she was doing to come and help me find the book I was looking for. You cant ask for better service than that!
Have always enjoyed the staff here. The GM Alana Atkins has always been knowledgeable and eager to solve all of my questions. Though no fault on the staff this mall property and its surrounding retail buildings have problems with gnats and leaking roofs of which I don’t see being repaired. This usually is a sign of poor corporate support at the local level.
Great store with tons of product. Perfect for nerding out! The staff are friendly and amazing.
This is a really nice store with lots of different things to buy. I love this store for me and my kids.
Its an overall great bookstore, but their prices usually send me straight to Amazon. I usually come here to look at a book that Im interested in and to also find new interesting books then scan them with the Amazon app, its almost always cheaper, order, and be on my way. All in all this is still a great store.
They were very friendly and helpful. They also had a variety of items for decent prices. 👍
Large selection. Clean store with a helpful staff.
Every book imaginable and every magazine thats current. If they dont have it they can get it within a week. Theyre book clubs a little expensive but if your continuous user and buyer of books then it might be worth the benefit. Friendly courteous staff and very helpful.
The girl was snotty and they still have sign up in store that theres a whole bunch of sales when we went to checkout she said there.wasnt even though they had signs all around
Great as always. Clean
Incredible selection of books, Bibles,, odds and ends, etc. - I think its the most well -stocked bookstore Ive ever seen!
Great place. Good selection check out was fast customer service great . Prices are just to high
The employees are horrifically rude. Extremely expensive, baristas in the peets do not make good coffee. I would rather strangle myself than step foot in this store
Great place to relax and unwind. Fantastic selection of books. Wonderful coffee shop. Will be back.
Glad to have a bookstore in Hammond, and love all the geeky stuff they sell in the front of the store! The Joe Muggs coffee is pretty good too.
No its boring
Got a book I really needed and a few more....
Good customer service and sale prices
Its not Barnes and Noble but its got a good variety. I wish it had a kids area with seats and such.
Very clean and organized.friendly staff.
LOVE the staff!! They are always so helpful & friendly. The store atmosphere is great. But today, I went in & the head guy (owner/manager/whoever) was in there & he was not a pleasant man to be around. He was speaking very loudly throughout the store which made me want to get out of there as soon as possible. I got to hear him fuss at the staff for silly things. It was just an unpleasant visit for me this time around. But the staff was still friendly even though they were being hounded the entire time I was there. (About 30 minute visit)
Great place to hang out and kill time. I rarely buy the books because I use the public library for free (my tax dollars at work free lol.)
Love Books-A-Million!!! I always find great deals and the coffee shop is the best!
Nice floorGood coffee. Cool staff
Gigantic selection of books and wonderful staff.
Good reads and coffee.Great prices
Common chain book store. most of the staff are younger high schools early college aged. so they are knowledgable of more modern works.
Amazing!! The workers were super nice and enjoyable.
Love this store, I read a lot. Just feel it is so expensive.
Books a million is a great book store a lot of variety. Things from children to adult books. They have a coffee shop inside and youre allowed to sit and read the books just like a library. They have toys for kids. They have manga, art supplies, birthday cards, key chains, cooking books, and more like plushies and collectables. I bought just recently a coloring book and pig puppet for my friend for her birthday. Havent given it to her yet but the quality is great. !
Anything you could read here,nice place
Always approached to see if I need help. Very friendly staff and if they dont have something Im looking for they always order it for me right away. I go twice a month here and am always pleased

Great selection of books, board games, and novelties. Friendly service.
The staff is extremely helpful and polite. The selection is amazing and I had an amazing experience at this store.
Wish we had 1 closer to me. Love this place.
Very nice place. But I found the book cheaper at Wal-Mart.
I love this place. If u like to read, then u will love it too.
Question:Has Any white customers ever gotten their $100 bill second guessed and double checked by a manager after the cashier checked it?
They accommodate my daughter and her ESA, Pippy. Our favorite place.
