Coles

I dropped by the local Coles' Books yesterday, with a Christmas gift card burning a hole in my pocket. With help from the extremely knowledgeable clerk, I found all three of the books I wanted (actually I wanted more but I exercised some restraint). I love this store - even the newest hires know their stuff and the longer-term ones - well, they are book-shopping oracles. The store is neatly laid out, attractive, and has a strong selection - with a down-homey feel. It does not FEEL like a big-box store. I like to patronize locally-owned businesses when I have an opportunity, but Coles is the only game in town right now and they have earned my loyalty.

The best thing about this shop is the staff: friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and welcoming. Decent selection, good layout, and always a few surprise bargains. It's a two hour drive from my home and worth every minute. I know it's a chain store, but it feels like an independent.

Amazing staff. Excellent selection. My children beg to go here every week to find the next great read. This will ALWAYS be our go to for books in New Glasgow. Thanks everyone at Cole's.

July 13 update. Got a paperback delivery from the online store. Wow do these people ever respect thier product! Single softcover book came wrapped in HARD cardboard. WOW!

I love buying books here. Staff are very nice and helpful and selection is pretty good. Sometimes you have to order a book if they don't have it in stock. Always seems to be a good sale on books I like too.

Well organized store with a great selection of Manga and books for young adults.

Friendly and very knowledgeable manager

Friendly staff, almost all know me by name. Good selection of books, games, and other merchandise. Easy to order books in from other stores here as well.

Kilti was extremely kind and informative. I asked for her help with finding the perfect book for my girlfriends birthday, and she made the whole experience easy and enjoyable

Always very friendly and helpful. If they dont have the titles you are looking for they are sure to get in, or tell you where you can find it, even if its at the compitition. I love the service the staff always gives. .

Terri was a great help, my son is trying to find a novel for a school project and she talked to him about his interests to help try and make a selection. He didn't find one yet but he will at Cole's.

Im in there prob once a week and they pretty much always have everything im looking for. And the service is impeccable. Lynn is my favorite!!!! Shes so helpful :)

It would be hard to find a better team than those working at this store. They have a wide selection and if they don't have it they will help you find it.

Lovely staff and a great selection of books :)

Great staff...lots of good reading!
