    A lot more non fiction than fiction, and the prices were a little high, but I found a few good king pieces as well as some Lovecraft

    I always appreciate the customer service, and the availability of the books. Unfortunately for those who take online classes and don't live nearby, they offer shipping for books, but we have to bring it back to this location. There is no book drop offered so it has to be during business hours. This makes it nearly impossible for those who have FT jobs. I now have to pay more and buy my books elsewhere.

    Another place for used book lovers. Aisles and aisles of wonderful books. You can find everything from gardening books to history and culture. There are several armchairs and places to sit and read quietly. It may look cluttered, but it is pure appearance. I invite you to be amazed by the amazing bookends and furniture.

    The staff there is very helpful and always polite. If you go during a busy time there can be a pretty long line but it always moves pretty quickly. The bookstore provides books at expensive prices but it's still a lot cheaper then the options on FAU Campus or buying it direct though.

    Great independent bookstore, I love this place! It's one of the largest and best stocked bookstore for both textbooks and used books. Great selection of books I almost always walk out with too many books, prices are always fair.

    David is amazing. I ordered a code for a college book on line Amazon dropped the ball on delivery and David went out of his way to give me a code and I drove 30 miles to return the code Amazon finally delivered 5 days late. Even after getting angry texts from me he was still willing to help me! He was awesome!!!!

    Customer service is unmatched. I had an issue with an online textbook, and David was extremely helpful and efficient in solving my problem. All the staff are nice and have consistently gone out of their way to help customers. Their prices are good too in comparison with other book stores. Absolutely amazing

    Place is a scam, dishonest scammers. Didn't allow me to return books I rented a day later. Stupid policy giving misinformation.

    If you like used books stores, this one is excellent. It's like a Barnes and Noble, but in used. Novels, text books, history books, and much more from many different categories. Staff is friendly and helpful. Overall, a great bookstore

    I ordered a book at 4:08pm and received an update with a tracking number at 4:14pm. This is amazing service. I have ordered several textbooks from Booksmart in the last year and have always experienced amazing customer service. The staff is amazing and the prices are fair. Thanks again.
