“This guy is such a consummate pro. Always on his grind, perfect curator., knows his inventory like the back of his head. But also leaves you alone when you want to just browse. Can't say enough good things about this place. Great bookstore. Go there and support this place”

“I did the international food tour with Jessica and she was amazing! She made the whole experience so fun and informative. It was a great way to learn more about Kensington market and the wonderful local restaurants and businesses that run there.”
“Such a great experience purchasing my Honeycomb Bravo throttle from your company. It seemed the item instantly was shipped and arrived
Across Canada in a mere 7 days. Highly recommend purchasing from this awesome company.”
“In addition to a beautiful array of books and a seriously cosy vibe, with a coffin in the corner and Dracula books on top of it, this place also hosts regular jazz music events. Went to one last night, brilliant vibes. If you’re looking for some cool stuff to do in Little Italy, and/or you like cool jazz music in an intimate exclusive vibe…keep an eye out for the next events!”
“I’ve wanted to thrift the Silmarillion for so long and I’ve looked everywhere, even outside the GTA, and they were the only one that had it! The lady at the counter was also nice to point me exactly where it was. Pristine condition. They have a lot of books here worth checking out”
“a great bookstore for book professionals and those looking for self-help and fiction psych books. i really like the new location as well. thanks for all your help today!”
“A beautiful, full-of-character bookstore that I’ve loved since I moved into the neighbourhood and got the fifth Harry Potter book on release night. My nephew has been a THRILLED recipient of the book-a-month gift (iykyk - if you don’t know … ask). They are a beating heart of Mount Pleasant! They also have a sweet selection of books for adult readers to be tempted while tiny readers browse & pet Mabel. These people know books and know midtown, protect them at all costs!!!”
“This place is mentioned in Atlas Obscura, especially the biblio-mat which vends you a vintage book for 5 dollars. I enjoy browsing the selection when I’m in the area, sometimes they have rare and unusual finds.”
“I could spend days just looking through all the books. It's a bit cramped so if you don't like small spaces, it may not be for you. Really chill vibe and a free bookmark!”
“Incredible selection of books. Would happily support such a business which prides itself in human rights advocacy. Already trekked back a few times and plan to do so again!”

“A great place to shop for used books and vinyl records. A great selection. You can spend hours looking around in here. The staff are friendly. Sadly, there aren't many places like this left in Toronto!”
“Went here for a book signing and it was absolutely lovely! The space is a bit small so if you're really excited and want a good view go a bit early. But all the staff were lovely and the store was very cute and cozy!”

“Fantastic bookstore!! The staff were so kind, knowledgeable and helpful. I was thrilled to find The Master and Margarita (50th Anniversary Edition) and No Great Mischief. A wonderful bookstore with a great selection, highly recommend.”
“Lovely bookstore with a great second hand book selection. Either you are looking for something new or a classic, the staff is super helpful and since they have everything well organized, it's easy to find what you are looking for.”
“Great selection of magazines and managed by very kind people. They also have a FedEx Onsite location so you can drop off or pick up packages securely. I’m so happy they are still in the neighbourhood!”
“This bookstore is a dream!! It’s like a bookstore in a cozy mystery book! Great variety of books. This year I m gonna leave more space in my suitcase! Update: I bought more books and my little cute friend was there!!”
“If you love design, will love this store. It’s like half a bookstore and half home decor. They have a variety of other items too. I actually discovered this retailer from a Instagram account who was showing some of their items. I have been in twice since then and this is now where I get cool gifts for all my family and friends. Everything I have gotten from here has been adored by whoever I gave it to. I feel like I’m not sophisticated enough to understand more of their technical books, magazines and design aesthetic but I have found the staff to be exceptionally helpful and while I felt that way. They definitely make you feel like you are, which is so refreshing because the design world can be snooty. This is such a cool spot downtown and really they just have cool things that are unique and almost defy trend. If you go you will definitely become a more styled person, you can’t be around such beauty and style and not pick some of it up. Also the store itself like the building, is also just beautiful.”

“These people are the best. Why would you buy a book from a huge corporation? It’s silly. Get personal recommendations, browse. Enjoy your life. Leave the deliveries for the cat food.”
“We were team sago mini well before other additions. It’s simply amazing what they come up with! So creative. I couldn’t recommend any other app more for mama’s with a little ones! Not only are the apps fun and educational but the team behind the apps truly care.”
“Room after room after room of used quality books and crystals. The vibe, energy, and curation of the items makes me want to frequent this shop everyday. Good vibes all throughout!”

sad to see when the book shop moves that drag brunch will not be going with it - so hoping there will be a drag brunch location too in the west end ?️??️⚧️ thank you selena and glad day!!!!”

“Very helpful staff - called to see if they had an item that was showing as only 1 left in stock. The lady I spoke to put it on hold for me and I was able to pick it up later that day.”
“Awesome selection of old and new comics. Such a warm, welcoming store. The owners are great people: helpful, honest, and excellent with kids. Their discount comics are a great way to inspire them to read. This place is a neighbourhood treasure.”
