Lovely people who knew the book I wanted and knew her stock to know she did not have in stock but took me to the area to have a look at other books in that category. Wonderful experience.

What an absolutely delightful shop; “hidden gem” describes it perfectly. So many excellent books that are reasonably priced and well curated. A must visit in Brantford!

I used to come here when I was a kid to buy up Stephen King books. Moved away for almost twenty years and just came back. So happy to see it's still open!
We need good used book stores like The Bookworm! Nothing beats a real book.
