Books-A-Million: The facts

Ali Morrello Ali Morrello

Books-A-Million ranks among the premier book stores in the United States with their exclusive site offering customers the chance to buy not only books and magazines, but also digital books and discount movies. As the name would imply, it specialises in a huge selection of books and offers customers a loyalty scheme that results in significant savings.

Books-A-Million

Books-A-Million, which is also known as BAM, has over 200 stores throughout the United States and was also one of the first major stores to launch its website. History
In 1998, it began trading at Books-a-million.com and the website offers an easy to navigate and well-structured site to search for the latest titles as well as for the classics.
Millionaire’s Club card It is also possible to purchase a “Millionaire’s Club” card from the Books-A-Million site and receive an additional 10% discount on all book purchases. Bargain Books deparment The site also has a “Bargain Books” department where they offer relatively big discounts on popular book titles. The average prices that Books-A-Million offers on their overall range of books, is one of the cheapest online and has made them a popular choice in the States, especially since Borders has gone out of business.

The browsing experience

If shopping online does not have as much appeal as getting into the store and flicking through the books that take your fancy, it is possible to visit one of the stores and enjoy a coffee as you browse.
Joe Muggs coffee Books-A-Million operates in conjunction with Joe Muggs coffee and many stores have a cafe inside where you can enjoy a relaxing afternoon, while you sift through your choices.
Magazine collection The store itself is also noted for its significant magazine selection. Many branches sell literary magazines that can be particularly troublesome to find elsewhere. Titles such as the Paris Review, A Public Space and the Asia Literature Review can be found on their shelves, making it a popular stop-off for those who are interested in such topics. Final note
Essentially, Books-A-Million is a store which sells many popular fiction titles, but which has a sizeable magazine selection. It is not nearly so grand as Barnes & Noble, but it is also regarded as friendly and unpretentious by those who use it.
