Two stories of entertainment, and the second floor houses one of the better children's book sections I've seen. Not only is there a nice selection of popular media, but they have plenty of small gifts available and a decent section on the local area. Additionally, you can order a book online to pick up at the store, and the people behind the counter have always been swift in handling my purchases and needs. Sometimes it is hard to figure out the arrangement of the adult books, but the staff is happy to help.
Pros: Great service for a chain
Cons: Extremely limited parking; be prepared to walk
