Barnes and Noble has set an official opening date for the store at Avenue East Cobb, and it’s less than two weeks away.
That date is Wednesday, Nov. 1, with a ribbon-cutting at 9 a.m. and store unveiling.
Lauren Ness of North American Properties, which manages Avenue East Cobb, said the event will include a meet-and-greet with local author Mary Kay Andrews, whose new novel is “Bright Lights, Big Christmas.”
Other book-signing events that day include Georgia-native authors Vanessa Riley (2023 Georgia Author of the Year), Delilah S. Dawson, and Krista & Becca Ritchie.

The Barnes and Noble store posted Wednesday that books are starting to be shipped to the 15,000-square-foot space (formerly Bed Bath and Beyond) on what it calls “turnover day.”
“That’s the day the store is turned over from construction to the booksellers! Here we are inside! It’s beautiful, y’all!”
The store will include a cafe and is the first in Georgia in a new Barnes and Noble concept with a smaller store size that focuses on local and regional recommendations curated by store managers.
