Review from Marje B.

I love Chapters, yes they have books but they have much much more!!
This location is only one level, but that's what I like about it, everything is in one level, no need to go up and down escalators.
Stuff is always so helpful (sometimes a little too much it becomes annoying).
This location has a Starbucks that's always busy. The bargain section is not too big, but still decent. Along with the great selection of books I love all the house stuff and baby gifts they sale here. If you are wanting to getaway from the crazy Metrotown mall Chapters is a great little break. -

I love Chapters. I go there to check out new releases, browse magazines, check out whimsical home decor and drink coffee (because there's always a Starbucks attached).
This location is really no different from others. The only thing I can point out is that the Starbucks actually has seats so you can sit down and enjoy the book you just bought over coffee.
I like to think of Chapters as a library, but with all the current titles (in stock) and the latest magazines (that doesn't have crud on them). It's a great place to spend a lazy Sunday. -

This is one of the few Chapters bookstore which has only one floor meaning you don't have to waste time taking the escalator up or down. Believe it or not, the most popular section in Chapters is Starbucks. Most people who shop here know what they want to buy, so you'll hardly see people browsing for books. If you're not into ebooks, Chapters bookstore is a good place to shop for old fashioned paper books. A lot of the New York Times best sellers are discounted in price because the Canadian dollar is so strong now. Unfortunately, a lot of their other books still priced higher than what Americans are paying for the same books.

The slowly going extinct bookstore is still a favorite of mines, even I still can't justify purchasing a $30.00 hard cover anymore. I was very pleasantly surprise to see my favorite Author Walter Mosley is physical view for Best Summer Reads. Usually his books are well hidden in inventory at the back of the store. We also picked up the third book in the series of a Graphic Novel soft cover of Amulet for $12.99. I also found out that you can view graphic novels on Kobo. WOW! This might be my next new tech buy, but I still weighing the pros and cons! Chapters has everything from comic books to yoga bags! As long as you can buy it online, I think this bookstore will survive!
