Books-A-Million — Local services in Lower Paxton Township

I love it here, absolutely brilliant! The staff is always nice and chatty and the vibe of the place is perfect. My friends are bigger book worms than me, but I love going in and browsing through the cookbooks, stuffed animals, and picking up a few good books on bugs and animals. My only complaint isn't towards the store, more towards their corporate as a whole; Please stop trying to push me into a membership.

Stopped in on a whim on the weekend. The selection here is huge. I love the smell of a bookstore and to browse through titles. They have a large variety of books, Genre, age groups and topics.
