    One of our favourite places to go. Friendly staff, relaxed atmosphere and of course, great and diverse selection of books. Only down side is not a large horror section but that doesn't take away from the great store that it is. Check out is super easy and they have great email coupons

    I like Barnes and noble a little better, but bam has a pretty good selection.

    I've only been here once and it reminded me of a Barnes and Nobles. There was a really wide selection of every genre you could imagine: nonfiction, fiction, young adult, horror, humour, etc. If I'm ever in the area I'd definitely stop in again even if it's just to kill time.

    Nice little place. Glad we still have a few book stores around!

    Always a fun place to spend a little time. Staff is helpful when you want them to be (readers know what I mean) and they have a great community service sense 👍 👏

    My family and I never heard of this store until today. It was amazing, the smell was incredible. It was so refreshing to find a place like this. Amazing book selections for all ages. This is our new favorite place. I don't understand why I've never heard of this place and why aren't there more. We need one of these stores in Norwich. Absolutely wonderful experience.

    Absolutely love it here. They have a pretty good selection of most genres and an awesome manga section. The merch and toys are cool and some exclusive to BAM. There are lesser-known board and card games. There are many unique gifts for all ages, a nice kid's section, and stationary/journals. The downsides for me if I were to nitpick, are the prices are a bit high and there are a few genres like psychology that don't have quite as much of an in-store selection.

    I will never shop at this store again. When making my purchase, I refused the paid subscription sign up. After my card was already swiped for my books, I was offered a “free” magazine subscription. They made sure to keep the flyer in hand so I couldn’t read any details in the moment. I felt like it was a scam but the sales person was pushy so I figured I could go home and cancel it. NOTHING was explained and they actually tried to sign me up for three “free” magazines. They said that after 2 months I would get a postcard in the mail asking if I would like to renew it. This is a flat out lie. When I got to my car I read the fine print and saw that it will auto renew for $54 after my trial. I’ve tried calling the magazine company and they’re unable to cancel at this time. I’m disgusted by this predatory practice and you could not pay me to shop here. I’m tempted to go back and return the books I bought today but I refuse to even step foot in this place again, who knows what other scams await me.
