Review from Anthony K.
Montréal, QC
I kept hearing how big The Book Shop was. Some people told me it covered 5,000 square feet, others 6,000. But nobody mentioned how good a bookstore it was, so I really wasn't expecting much.
Well, The Book Shop is a truly excellent secondhand bookstore, run by a true old-school bookstore man. The collection runs the gamut from popular fiction to psychology, history, cookery, and belles lettres, plus an extensive DVD rental service, but it contains a veritable mother lode of bookstore gold and the prices are generally very fair. This is the kind of bookstore I could easily spend hours in (as well as hundreds of dollars), and I'm pretty picky about my bookstores.
Did I mention they're friendly? And they have mascot, too.
