It is with a heavy heart that I post this. I have been loyal to B&N ever since I could read. I loved the booksellers, the smell of books, and the fact that most of them had a cafe was terrific. I could spend hours in their stores looking at books, talking to booksellers & of course leaving with a brand new book. It was wonderful. Unfortunately, Barnes & Noble no longer values those employees. Monday 2/12/2018, they fired HUNDREDS of full-time employees as part of a restructuring of the company.
