Will is quite AWESOME!!! Along with his friendly, professional, courteous & helpful assistance, he rocks with his excellent work ethics and excellent oral/verbal etiquette that he should be the CEO!!! He helped me find coin accessories for my 84 year old Father who is an avid coin collector that we never even imagined would be accessible at BAM! ; Books-A-Million!!!Keep it up Will, because you rock!!!

They are a true hold out to by gone days when book stores were king. They have a quiet, yet exciting atmosphere. You can browse books, games, trinkets, or just sit at their coffee shop and reminisce about days gone by.

This is a smaller store, inside the mall in Abilene. However, dont let that dissuade you from checking them out. They had a very large selection of categories including a humongous selection of merchandise. I actually ended up purchasing 2 mugs and a framed print. The clerks were present and helpful when I needed them. I will be going back as needed, as long as Im in Abilene.

I always love books a million. They have literally everything a bookworm could want. It reminds me of a much smaller Hastings.

The book selection is nothing special. As I was browsing through the store I said Hi to a couple employees who didnt respond or even acknowledge me. I ordered a $6 cup of coffee and left a $2.50 tip. No thank you or have a nice day. I go to Books A Million quite often and despite the recent decline in customer service Im sure Ill be back as there are no other similar book stores in the area.

This is my FAVORITE store to go too! I mostly go for the manga and plushies but its a book store so it has a little bit of everything. Very cool journals, coloring books and trinkets for almost anyone. The only bad thing I could say about this place is that theyll sometimes only have one cashier when the line is really long so that can be frustrating. Other than that, I dont really have any complaints.

The selection of reading and reference materials is broad, and well-organized. The staff seemed fairly busy with stocking/etc., yet also very willing to drop what they were doing to help out. I bought a programming book and am very satisfied! Looking forward to my next visit!

Everything was fine until I went to stand in the check-out line. I was not standing in the right spot and I was barked at by the girl at the register that I was not at the end of the line. I attributed her rudeness to me wearing a Trump cap. So I decided to put the book back on the shelf.

Michelle, the cashier at the counter, was rude and unprofessional. She is supposed to be a frontliner at this store but she is not accommodating at all. No smile or whatever. Just being a grinch at this season. Anyways, I told her to renew my membership first before punching all my orders so I could make use of my membership benefits and coupons. But she wont listen and just being lazy I guess. I purchased a lot of books today from this store and was disappointed by this figure who should represent right courtesy and professionalism at its finest. So I ended up paying the books I bought without using my membership benefits at all. Nonsense. I used to love this store. But never again with a personnel like this. I am a quality control personnel and I should say, she made the store look bad in so many ways.

Wish I could give negative stars. Store had sign up for additional 50% off clearance. I took some time shopping and chose two items. I asked a manager if other items were additional 50% off and was told that nothing was. When I showed them the sign they took it down and said it ended yesterday and they didnt take the sign down. I explained to the manager linda that they should honor it since the sign was up and she told me no. If you cant properly mange your store and remove sale signs you should honor the sale.

Books-A-Million, in The Mall of Abilene, is a wonderful establishment to lose yourself. Love their up to date inventory on one of the things I most admire about this world: BOOKS. Highly recommend. Plus, its the only mass book-for-sale company in The Big Country.

My new favorite place in town. The perfect bookstore. Friendly knowledgeable staff who are experts in just being nice, friendly, fun humans. Dont look sideways at an old lady buying graphic novels, horror, or new age stuff along with Christian materials. Like the smiles and help I get no matter what weird thing Im looking for.

The check out line had 20+ people in it when I came in the store. I looked around for about 30 minutes and went to check out. Line was still 20+ people. I walked out without a purchase because I didnt have time to wait. There were 2 check out folks at the parking lot side registers. I didnt go to the mall side to see if those lines were shorter. Today is Sunday before Christmas so I understand why so many people but the last lady in line when I got ready to leave looked like the same lady as when I came in the store.

Do not attempt to use their buyback system. I waited 20 minutes for them to take my information. I left 15 audiobooks and probably 20 books, including brand-new popular hardbacks. They did NOT text or email as promised. When I went back 3 days later, all but 5 books had disappeared. At that time they informed me that they do not buy back audiobooks. They offered me $1.40. That didnt cover my gas. Do yourself a favor and donate to your local library.The store is cluttered, understaffed and corporate is difficult to work with.
