Got a tour of the bookstore as I walked in and it was so welcoming! Books emerge from donations and most books can be purchased for $1-$10. A great local find!

It’s the best book place I ever visit . It’s been 10 yrs in Calgary but never went a place like books between friends. They care for books . All the books are properly placed and segmented very well . Definitely recommended place to visit for the books . They have all kind of books including kids or board books for toddler/ baby as well . People are very welcoming and generous as well .

Dropped off an old book collection I had and the staff was very appreciative. Happy to have my books go to someone who will appreciate then.

There must be thousands of books, all at a great price. It takes time to find what you might be looking for. The books are not categorized as good as a library.

Very organized used book store. Very easy to find any type of book you’re looking for. As it was my first time there, the owner took the time to show me and explain how everything was displayed. Will definitely be a book store I will return to many times I’m sure. Judy Morin

No better place in the city to buy used books. I’ve never left without buying something. They are knowledgeable about their inventory and have helped me find multiple books after I’ve walked around aimlessly for quite some time. Wish there were more kids books but I’m sure all the teachers come in and pick up carloads of those.

Price is really low for the quality of the books. This was my first time there and I got like 8 books for like $30. Everything is tied up and organized. I highly recommend!

Immediately upon entering the store, I and my family were asked if we'd been there before, told to go wash our hands, treated like we were a threat. The older, female member of the team attempted to confiscate my covered coffee cup. I quickly rescued it by giving to my husband to take out to the car. She cheerfully exclaimed ,"that was easy."and we were ushered into a small room by the male member of this overzealous duo, to wash our hands as if we were about to perform surgery. Meanwhile, he stood and supervised, all the while giving us lengthy and detailed directions about where each type of book was located and the cost, even though the prices and descriptions were clearly posted all over the store. People who can't read aren't going to be in your store, and it's not big enough to get lost in there! This isn't the Louvre and we're not there to steal some great treasure. It's a mediocre used bookstore! Many people have handled those books, hence the name USED books. My impression...it's an unfriendly, off-putting environment filled with self importance. I doubt if I'll be back!

They have a great collection. The gentleman sitting at the reception, who I believe is also the owner, came to me and explained pricing and location of different genres. Pricing is standard: $2 for pocket paperbacks, $3 for paperbacks, and $4 for hardbacks. This is a lot cheaper than most second hand bookstores in the city. I will definitely visit again.

Incredibly friendly people running the store. They have an enormous selection of books, a great kids section, and a lovely atmosphere.We bought probably 10-12 books and they are very affordable! Just over 50 bucks for all those books, a total steal of a deal, in my opinion. I will definitely be going back again and again.

This place is phenomenal! The selection of books is excellent and the staff are extremely helpful as well as friendly. I went there for the first time a couple weeks ago and they treated me like an old friend as soon as I walked in the door. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for used books, books that are hard to track down and just anything in general if you're a reader. They happily show you around and they have answers to any question you could possibly have about any book in the place, I love coming here

Lots of books, fantastic selection, great prices and very nice people. Annoying that you have to be escorted to the back to wash your hands, when a sanitizer station at the front would suffice. Also, not sure if they don't take debit or only for larger purchases.

I Love this bookstore, rooms upon rooms of great finds, popular authors, fantasy Sci fi, romance, horror, mystery, YA, and more all well organized and at extremely reasonable and easy to follow price points. I don't get up to this area often but when I do its a must visit place.
