Sunny Gu: Such a sweet & cozy bookstore. We always heard about it from our friends, finally we come to visit. So much love put in this bookstore, very well organized and set up. I really love the tree 🌳 in the kids area, brings a hint of fairytale magic to this place.
The Lady Starr G.: This place is a book lovers dream spot. I have visited twice for author-illustrator events and I enjoyed both of them. If I got there early and hung out in the bathroom a little long it's because I am amused by the pics of all the people!🤩
Ryan Smith: Didn't have what I was looking for, but I'm sure it's a nice place if fiction is your interest.
Meg F: Best bookstore ever! The selection, the ambience, the staff everything is a 10 across-the-board
Tony Mwalali: Awesome selection and friendly staff¥

We were recently there in late April as they were celebrating something-can't remember what- and there were sales and delicious goodies! Staff is very friendly and they'll wrap your book, too! Public restrooms are clean -always a plus!!
Alex Barker: Loved my first visit. The staff was friendly and the selection was great! Will definitely go again.
Brandie Hopper: Lovely, lovely store. Took my daughter and grand kids here and stayed for over an hour. Such a delightful book store. Not many like this exist anymore. Super duper expensive, to be expected I guess. A fun little place to visit.
Jesucristo Yire: Muybien
James Krause: Never used them…

So & So Books: what do users think?
Susan Campbell: Shop local for your books! Tailored selection of books that offer a mix of the hot, current reads along with the classics. Staff was welcoming and ready to help with any inquires. Found on the corner of a small shopping center across from Two Roosters.
Crystal The Wolf: Nice and cold inside, great collection including queer and trans books, nice employees
Jerimee Richir: My favorite bookstore in Raleigh
Anna Kurtz: A lovely locally-owned bookstore in downtown Raleigh. It has a bright and airy feel, but cozy and quiet at the same time. Small selection of vinyl and jigsaw puzzles as well. Special ordering an out-of-stock book was easy and it arrived quickly. I like that they have a few parking spots out front, too.
Mike M: I have been twice, and both times, the guy up front was helpful. The shop is very clean, spacious and has a very calming atmosphere. Support your local bookstore!
Anurata Hridi: Nice little book shop. Cordial staff.
Sallie Thompson: This bookstore is a gem. Great selection of books. Knowledgeable and friendly staff. They always have what I'm looking for and suggestions for what to read next.
Lillian: great selection of books by diverse authors of various genres. Really cool local finds, too. The owner is very friendly and knowledgeable. Kids section available
Hannah Braswell: I absolutely loved my experience at So & So. It is such a quaint, eclectic, and genuine book loving vibe when walking around the store. I really loved the selection and it is organized in such a beautiful way! They sell awesome gifts as well.
John: Very cute bookstore with an overall nice vibe and aesthetic. The guy behind the desk was helpful but I was only looking around really. Not a huge selection of course but what they have is great. Decent size kid's section with some vinyls as well.
Richard O'Brien: Shopped local for the holidays and found several wonderful gifts for our young adult children.
Laura Thrower: Love this book store! Every year my friends and I do a “secret Santa” exchange there, (we browse and buy on the spot from an anonymous questionnaire of likes and dislikes we craft ahead of time) and Charles has always been so accommodating and knowledgeable! The shopping vibe is great, selections are carefully chosen and such a variety! I know it’s easier and sometimes slightly cheaper to buy online, but this retail experience makes getting out and touching, previewing and buying well worth it! Grab and couch, and a read and support local!
Jacob Winters: Cute shop with a good selection of books. The person that runs the place had a good conversation with me
Nacchianti The Wine Fairy: So&so guys were so accommodating to our group for a book reading. The venue was great! The selection was great!
Shaun Bennett: A carefully curated bookstore which encourages discovery of unknown, fantastic materials.
Larry Sherrill: some say the collection is small, but I prefer to say it’s well-curated. give me that over a book superstore any day.
Maria G. Martinez: I just love this store and all their events and classes
Jtwob Jgood: Great job and experience
Michelle: the best bookstore in the city!!
Dan Hooker: If you're looking for a great selection of books this is not the place to go. They effectively have books on one wall of the store. Yes, one wall.... What about all the rows and rows of books in the middle of the store? There are none. After browsing the books for a few minutes I got back in my car and wondered why this place had such great reviews. (I originally looked at the star rating only).Turns out people love this place due to their hosting of book clubs and poetry reading. Seems to be more of your trendy hang out spot to socialize at than to move books. If that's your thing then this is probably the place for you. If your just after a good selection of books I'd recommend looking elsewhere.
Gabriela Martinez: Super cute and gorgeous, incredible selection. Looks empty ITS NOT its just big lmao.

Barnes & Noble: what do users think?
Hannah Sudduth: This barnes location is just alright. They didn’t have as many options as other ones I go to frequently. Also disappointed there was no cafe but I couldve maybe figured that out if I looked on their website. The inside of this barnes is VERY cozy and welcoming. Not many places to sit down though. This is definitely a barnes for getting in and out, not for hanging out like other locations. Service was great and everyone who worked there was very nice!
T whitetail: Can't go wrong with bn. The cashier, an older man, was a bit rude and aggressive, but he was probably having a hard day
Freddie Joseph: Excellent location! Very modern feel and open layout with a very great selection of books
B Cash: Placed my order for an item to be picked up, my item was ready when I got there, the cardboard packaging had a couple little dents (item wasn't damaged by any means) and the gentleman at checkout offered a discount because the shipping was a little rough and I declined the discount but I appreciated the thoughtful gesture. I found a couple of interesting books while browsing and I thoroughly enjoyed my experience. I will definitely return in the near future just to browse.
Carolina Girl: Nice atmosphere, friendly employees. Easy to find, great location.
Diego Santiago: Absolutely love the workers at this location. Recently had an extremely niche request about a return on a product and they helped while maintaining the best amount of costumer service throughout the whole process.
Meredith Bird: I love the notes the staff write explaining and recommending different books. Also enjoyed browsing the North Carolina-based authors and stories.
karl martin: Love it
Hillary Bost: Great book store always has been!
Johana Bautista: Great selection of books though I recommend ordering online for pick up because not all books have the buy 1 get 1 50% in store!Pretty cozy exactly what you can imagine of a Barnes & noble.
Kiersten Hansen: Always cozy atmosphere with friendly staff
Brenda Byers-Banks: Love the set up of this location; it’s huge inside. They have a great selection of all kinds of books. I love their adult coloring books and science fiction selection. The workers are knowledgeable and I can always find a seat inside to do a little reading before I continue shopping around.
Reeze The Vampire: This is the smallest Barnes & Noble I've been to, but it also has the BEST organization I've seen at one. The staff is friendly and the store is clean, but I do miss the smell of coffee; this location doesn't have a café in it like others. Other than that, you probably know what to expect from a Barnes & Noble.
Ayanna Battle: This location does a great job at organizing contents and being engaging to their customers. I am never fearful of asking for assistance with books and even for asking for similar recommendations. I never fear a long wait when needing assistance either, and when getting recommendations they are mindful to keep them relevant to my original inquiry.
Kristin Elizabeth Schenck: Always find what I'm looking for and excellent customer service
Janene Townshend: Wonderful smell of books. Clean, well stocked, friendly staff
Jay Henson: Actually very nice. The new store layout is cozy and inviting.
Alene Williamson: Easy to navigate.... friendly staff.
Kevin Becker: asked the 20 yr old woman working the check out for directions to a book my daugther needed for school and she said it we either in classics or horror. When I asked for help finding it, she said it's ..."over there." The B&N in Cary is so much nicer, and the employees are so much more helpful. Zero stars. Take your business elsewhere
Kisha B Johnson: Great space! I love visiting as often as I can! Very warm and inviting! ❤️ 📚
Rosemarie Vaughan: Love this store!

Barnes & Noble: what do users think?
Ginny Tessitore: Good selection, well stocked shelved and a helpful staff.
T whitetail: Workers? Does anyone work there?
David Evans: Can’t say enough great things about this place. Staff is always super helpful and the cafe is always a hit with the kids.

We’ve moved away from kid’s birthday presents and started giving B&N gift cards instead!

Tom Cruce: Barnes & Noble is Back! Lovely store... great inventory.

Full Pocket Coaching: Always an amazing experience with such knowledgeable folks who work here. I tookPhotos of all the suggestions for my 7 year old daughter. I will absolutely be back to order for the holidays. Thank you 🙏
Spyridon Scott: Great Art! Friend of mine has some work there!
Alison Fontenot: While in the area to visit my parents, we stumbled on Read To Me after a trip to Marbles and lunch downtown, and so glad we did! We only got to scratch the surface of this wonderful store, but felt so comfortable reading a few books with our littles before picking out some to purchase. Thoughtfully designed store with books for youngest readers on the bottom shelves, and the selection was great - I loved discovering booksfor the kiddos we may not have come across elsewhere. Will definitely be back whenever we visit Raleigh!
Amy Henkenius: Great selection, well organized, and friendly staff!
Eyal Greenberg: Great variety of books, organized by age (each age group in a different level so kids can browse by age and books will be approximately at their height - kind of genius!)Store owner is very nice and friendly!All in all - GREAT experience! Highly recommend!!
Diane Dietz: Always a favorite place to visit when I get to North Carolina. So many great books, and the staff is amazing. Love this store!
Luisa Smith: Lovely store and great staff!
M. C: If you need a Dav Pilkey book, you can probably find it here. Wonderful range of children's books. My kiddo adores this place.
Div: Lovely shop with a wonderful librarian who loves books.. enjoyed our conversation and wishing read with me all the very best..Thank you for all you're doing during this time to help the community!
Sean Caye: Great space, helpful staff, and a good collection of children's books
Terri: Very inviting book store. Diverse book selection representing all voices. Children and parents will find interesting reads here! Owner and staff are friendly and knowledgeable.
s: This place is awesome! When they were contacted about myself and my partner painting murals on the sidewalk across from them, the shop owner Christine went above and beyond to support our project by offering us access to their space for storage of our supplies and other needs. We painted for almost 3 weeks and could not have finished our project without this shops support. They are REALLY here for the community. The owner is extremely kind and generous.On top of this, they have a fantastic array of books for children AND adults (in the back). I bought a book on "they" pronouns for my mom and my dad bought a book on conversations about race. They also have awesome art, and art supplies for beginners! The store is incredibly cute, kid friendly, and well-stocked. Even though I am an adult, it's my new favorite bookstore. The selection is very diverse and the staff is knowledgeable and can inform you about anything they have stocked. They also have a lot of really unique graphic novels.
melissa graham: Fantastic bookstore!
Eboni Williams: My family and I visited Raleigh for the first time. Read With Me was on our downtown bucket list and we stopped in after breakfast. This is a beautiful store front filled with carefully selected books for children of all ages. There’s also a few reading nooks for kids, an art section, and an adult corner. Great job on a much needed space!
Christine Martin: Read With Me sponsored one of my scavenger hunts. Their contribution to the gift baskets was very generous. In addition, they were easy to work with and very responsive. I can tell by how they interacted with me, they have a very caring business. Plus their bookstore is beautiful inside. Check them out!
Erik Solberg: Great little book store with a nice variety of books in a great atmosphere. A must-visit if you’re in the Raleigh area!
Jean Knepley: Charming small shop with a wonderful selection. Very friendly and helpful. I will definitely visit again.
Nancy Shepard: Cute shop. Knowledgeable owner. Good selection of books for kids
