November 6, 2014 at 4:42 pmGreat giveaway! My favorite book/s (right now) is The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare. They are so good, even if they are teen books! When I go to Barnes & Noble I tend to go to the kids section because I love buying books for my son. What is it about children’s books that is so fun? :)
Necole
November 6, 2014 at 4:42 pmI love a good coffee from Barnes & Noble’s cafe and then finding a book or magazine that sparks my interest! It’s a relaxing and peaceful place to just zone out and have “me” time!
Katy
November 6, 2014 at 4:42 pmI can’t say I have a favorite book. I enjoy so many genres and styles that it gives me a huge variety of books to read. I love when I visit Barnes and Noble because, if I so choose, I can curl up anywhere and read a book. I always feel comfy and content-sometimes even more than in my own home!

November 6, 2014 at 5:00 pmWhen my baby was a baby I joined a book club for fun… Now that she has turned into an active toddler, reading time is more of a nessessity than a pass time so this momma can have some time to unwind in the quiet!

Susannah
November 6, 2014 at 5:15 pmI feel like Belle From Beauty and The Beast when I enter a Barnes + Noble store. I could spend forever in there. But my absolute favorite section – the DIY books. Everything from sewing, to DIY in the home or just paper crafts. I could live in that section.
Carrie Palmer
November 6, 2014 at 5:28 pmMy favorite book is North and South by John Jakes. It’s been a long time since I’ve been able to read through it though…ever since I had kids, lol!
Carrie Palmer
November 6, 2014 at 5:32 pmI love being able to flip through the pages and read bits and pieces of however many books I want and that feeling when you finally find the book that’s coming home with you. And it’s great seeing my kids get excited about all the different books in the children’s section!
Jess
November 6, 2014 at 5:33 pmFavorite book is ‘Eve’s Daughters’ by Lynn Austin. I cry every time over the Redemption and Grace that appear in each ‘daughter’s’ story.
Arisa
November 6, 2014 at 5:34 pmI read Where’d You Go Bernadette? a couple years ago and I can’t get over how good it was! Definitely a new favorite.
Jess
November 6, 2014 at 5:35 pmI really love the book smell at B and N. Sitting down with a coffee and reading while smelling the paper and ink floating in the air is so lovely.
Arisa
November 6, 2014 at 5:35 pmI love taking my girls to Barns and Noble. It is a favorite store for them. I love watching how excited they get over all the books! They all grab a stack, and read up!

November 6, 2014 at 5:56 pmI am a mom to 4, ages 9 to 3 months and I homeschool. To say that barnes and noble is like a vacation spot for me is an understatement. I get to relax, be quiet in my thoughts, no one rushing me. I love the coffee, the music, the parenting books, i love the little nick nacks by the accessories like book marks and pretty planners. I need to go this weekend. It makes me a better mom when I get time to myself!
Kristen
November 6, 2014 at 5:58 pmI love historical fiction about English royalty.
As for Barnes amd Nobel. …i jusy love looking at everything amd coffee.

November 6, 2014 at 6:01 pmMy favorite author would probably have to be Barbara Kingsolver. I still remember when and where I read The Poisonwood Bible for the first time. My current author crush would have to be Camilla Lackberg.
Molly
November 6, 2014 at 6:02 pmFavorite book series – my favorite will always be Harry Potter, but my grown up answer is the Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon!
Molly
November 6, 2014 at 6:04 pmI love everything about Barnes and Noble. I’ve grown rather attached to it as it is the only bookstore left in our area. It’s the perfect place to go alone, on a date or with your kids. Something for everyone and surrounded by books – perfect!
Carrie
November 6, 2014 at 6:06 pmMy favorite author is CS Lewis. My favorite things about visiting Barnes and Nobles is the wide selection and relaxed environment to browse and have a Starbucks!
audrey
November 6, 2014 at 6:15 pmGoing to Barnes and Noble is like stepping into a dream. I can get lost and spend hours in that store easy, especially with an attached Starbucks! In the present it’s like my own personal mini vacation. As a busy mom of two under three I rarely get to go alone, but when I do it’s a real treat. Although taking the kids can be fun as my oldest adores books.I have fond memories of one year, when I was about ten my mom took me once a month and let me pick out 1 book under $10. Then at the end of the year we donated all the books to a women’s shelter. Barnes and Noble stores will always hold a special place in my heart and someday, I hope, my daughters’ hearts too.

November 6, 2014 at 6:16 pmmy favorite author is hands down Nicholas Sparks!! I look forward to his new books + signings every year! :)
Morgan Williams
November 6, 2014 at 6:18 pmwe have weekly or bi-weekly trips depending on how busy we are! I love ye kid’s section the most because I get to see my kids excited about bringing home a new book to love! and it doesn’t hurt that I can grab a Starbucks while I’m there browsing! ;)
Claire S
November 6, 2014 at 6:23 pmMy favorite series is the Lady Julia Grey Mysteries! I love the late 1800’s England time setting.
Claire S
November 6, 2014 at 6:25 pmFunny thing, I’ve always wanted to work in a bookstore because I LOVE the smell of books and the comfort it gives me. So I love to get lost in the fiction section then find myself in a big comfy chair.
Ashley Peck
November 6, 2014 at 7:26 pmI could never settle on a favorite genre or book but what I read the most is young adult fiction that is primarily sci-fi fantasy. I was an English lit major so all the classics I read have a special place in my heart. To list a few of my favorite books: to kill a mockingbird, the great gatsby, seraphina, pride and prejudice, the bone season. I never read books, I devour them. What i love most about Barnes and nobles bookstores is how it is a haven for the written word and all loves of literature can spend time exploring different genres and discovering new authors. I love walking into Barnes and noble and the feeling I get when I find a new book or realize the second book in a series is finally out is awesome!

November 6, 2014 at 7:41 pmMy favorite books are cookbooks, and autobiographies. Kind of random, but I love food and real people!
Michal Buchanan
November 6, 2014 at 7:43 pmOne of my favorite things to do on a date night with my husband is visiting Barnes and Noble to read and chat. We’ve done it since we were in college and still love to do it even today. It’s so relaxing and always sparks the best conversations. I also recently went to my first book signing at Barnes and Noble for one of my favorite cookbook authors. That was so much fun!

November 6, 2014 at 8:11 pmMy favorite thing about Barnes and Noble is their kid’s section. I love taking my son there and letting him play with the trains and explore the books.

November 6, 2014 at 8:16 pmPeople magazine is my favorite, and I like going to Barnes and noble stores with a cafe!
Molly Williams
November 6, 2014 at 8:22 pmFavorite at the moment is The Husband’s Secret by Liane Moriarty. I’ve read several of her books, they’re addicting!
Barnes & Noble reminds me fondly of the many times when I was younger and my dad and I would spend several hours exploring all the sections, sometimes separately and sometimes together. No cell phones as a distraction, just some really great literature! It is such a special environment.
Amanda
November 6, 2014 at 8:33 pmHarry Potter! And I love the smell of books in the stores.
Gwen
November 6, 2014 at 8:44 pmI love any book that is a page turner, and for magazines I like home decor, women’s interest and food.

November 6, 2014 at 9:09 pmMy favorite books of all time would have to be Harry Potter. I have read all the books and have seen all of the movies too!
francesca Leverich
November 6, 2014 at 9:12 pmI love going to Barnes and Noble to just get away. If I don’t have my hubby or son in toe, I can walk in and get totally lost. I lose myself reading a magazine I have not had a chance to read or looking through craft books wishing I had the time to do some of the crafts.
Stephanie
November 6, 2014 at 9:26 pmI love reading about history, it’s better than any fiction!
Stephanie
November 6, 2014 at 9:27 pmThe one thing I love about Barnes and Noble is that it’s still around, there’s something about being able to go into a bookstore & browse that is so soothing :)
Leslie
November 6, 2014 at 10:05 pmMy favorite magazine is Rachel Ray. I love trying out new recipes every month!

November 6, 2014 at 10:13 pmI love looking through the clearance and markdown books at Barnes and Noble and finding rad books for a low price, lol!
