I can remember the Borders wing of Southwest Plaza Mall before the bookstore took it over. The arcade used to be there, as well as a small used bookstore, a Taco Bell, and a couple of other little shops. Borders, of course, eliminated all of that. Although the bookstore is big and has a good selection, it is still just another chain bookstore with a coffee shop, and this particular one hasn’t struck any chords with me. The store just seems too sterile (and too busy around the holiday months). When it comes to bookstores, there are simply others that I prefer.
