    I love best-selling new fiction (is that even a genre??)! Especially when it’s one of my favorite authors like Jodi Picoult, Wally Lamb, or Marisa de los Santos. This section is always the first place I go in a bookstore!

    My favorite thing to do at B&N is grab a hot cup of coffee and go upstairs with a new glossy magazine to curl up in a big comfy chair. I get to have coffee, read, and people-watch – what could be better?

    I am a true blue book junkie. I’m always trying to better myself and find myself gravitating to “how to”, cookbooks, parenting and self improvement titles. I also love biographies. Bookstores are actually a getaway for me and I’m so thankful that I have access to three Barnes & Noble stores close to my work and home. I honestly have to control myself because if left unchecked, I can easily break the bank! Anyway, thank you for providing us with really wonderful information, and for this opportunity to win a Nook. I’ve been really wanting a Nook because it would not only be a spacesaver, but so convenient. Some added fun to the reading experience. Best regards. Michelle

    Funny thing is that my husband and I plan date nights to Barnes & Noble. We enjoy spending time browsing through their extensive magazine collection. Bookstore and then dinner! How romantic! :-)

    One of my favorite books is ‘Brightness Falls’ by Jay McInerny, probably because of the time in my life I read it. It really spoke to me.
    I have recently been on a short story jag with my recent fav being ‘If I Loved You, I Would Tell You This’ by Robin Black. Great writer. As far as my local B&N locale, I love to go there and browse the new releases!

    I could get lost in the shelves of Barnes and Nobles! I’m a huge reader and each shelf, each book has a secret I can’t wait to unfold. I will buy books by the dozen because I can’t choose!! I always have a book in my bag and pass time at doctors appointments, etc with a good story. My goal for 2013 was to watch less TV so it’s how I start my day and how I unwind at night.

  • Kristin
    November 8, 2014 at 10:10 am

    I love Barnes and Noble! Browsing new books, the “new book” smell, flipping through books and making choices on what to buy. My favorite books… The Time Traveller’s Wife, The Hunger Games series, Little House Series, Unbroken, Where the Red Fern Grows, The Fault in our Stars… I could go on and on!

    I knew my husband was a keeper when we went on an date early in our relationship and ended up spending an hour looking at books and talking about our favorite books with coffee at Barnes and Noble. Now we take our 2 year old son to explore the kids area and help him appreciate books.

  • Cori R.
    November 8, 2014 at 12:36 pm

    Oh how I would love to win this giveaway. I own the very first nook color that came out and it is quickly dying… I read every single night before I go to sleep (it’s the ONLY “me” time I get) and I have to constantly charge my Nook every single day to make sure it’ll have enough power for me to read at night.

    My favorite books are the Harry potter series but I am currently reading the newest Cormoran strike book (written by JK Rowling) and have also gone through all of the Sookie Stackhouse books and most recently finished the latest Shopaholic book.

    I love walking through Barnes and nobles. In Hawaii they have eliminated all bookstores BUT Barnes and nobles, and as a previous bookstore worker, it brings me great pleasure to open a door to a whole store full of books, magazines and coffee!

  • Lori

    • mandy
      November 8, 2014 at 9:32 pm

      And my favorite author is Lori Wick. But I love to read so I have a few favorite authors. I read over 200 books before my nook died.

    I can’t pick a favorite genre because I love everything from romance to murder mysteries to autobiographies! A recent book I read that I enjoyed was A House in The Sky by Amanda Lindhout.
    I love going to Barnes and Nobles because of the smell! Weird, right? But there’s something about the smell of a new book that brings a sort of peace to me.

  • Lisa Brown
