Borders and B&N have never served this market.
There are a Hastings and a Books-A-Million over in Sherman. Both are sound to my knowledge.

Borders took some bad risks and overpaid its management.

They did some things from time to time that makes it really hard for me to miss the company in any way. I feel for the employees, but not one bit for the corporation.
