“I grew up in Weston and bought all of my High School textbooks from Squibb's. More recently, I still buy books there even if I don't live in Weston. Actually I live in the UK but my mother and sister still live in Weston. So, rather than use Amazon, I call Suri and ask what she might have that my mother would like, reading wise. She always comes through and occasionally throws in something extra. She wraps it up, selects a nice card and delivers it, when possible, to my mum's house. I always drop by to see Suri when I'm in Canada to say hello and have a nice chat.”

“Smashing IT! ???

Found this little gem in the heart of the Annex the other day, and I am very happy that I did.

I've been strolling through the city and visiting a lot of second-hand bookstores, and I must say I feel at one with Doug Miller's Books!

What I really love about the charm of the store is the easy layout and being able to access books based on what reading mood I happen to be in at that moment.

I also really like the fact that there's an emphasis on the classics and their front and center. Easy to locate and easy to find.

And get this, they have the old Hardy Boys Book Collection!

I read those back in grade school!

I just adore this book store and can't wait to delve into this magical bookstore again! ✌️”

“An old school second-hand bookstore where you can find everything from Chomsky's greatest hits to Carlos Castaneda's ruminations on LSD - and a whole lot in between - Sellers & Newel also doubles as a tiny and unlikely, but also uber-hip nightclub featuring a rotating cast of local musicians/songwriters. A throw back to the coffee house days of the 60s, this place is an experience! Save yourself the cost of a trip to Greenwich Village and soak up the folksy sounds right in our own backyard.”

“A wonderful, hidden-away bookshop with detailed sections on diverse faiths and spirituality along with your typical sci-fi, fantasy, anthologies, and classical literature. Floor to ceiling packed with books but very orderly. Nice atmosphere and pleasant service.”

“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!!!”

“Pandemonium is one of the best places in Toronto to buy new and used records from bands from all over the world and Canada. You can find your favourite band, and they even have a small selection of Latin and Brazilian music, including salsa and tango. There are also a variety of CDs and books. The place is nice and the service is excellent.”

“A clean, beautiful library-like book store that offers a wide range of books from children to serious study.

Alhamdulillah this store is a blessing for our family. My wife and I were so happy when we first visited it, and our toddler was having so much fun reading the books we ended up buying a few for him. My wife found the books that she's been looking for which were not found in conventional book stores.”

“I've been going to Bakka-Phoenix since 1986, when it was just Bakka the Science Fiction Bookstore. Off and on, throughout the years, I've been in and found some great books. I've moved to BC. 25 years ago, but whenever I visit Toronto, I pop in and see what's new. Great store and friendly staff.”

“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.”

“Smashing IT!

I have always loved Book City. There's something very intellectual about this space.

It's an amazing space to lose yourself in that favorite book.

They have an amazing selection of books to fulfill that reading need that whispers words on pages yet to be discovered.

The staff are very friendly and extremely knowledgeable.

Also, if you can't find what you're looking for, the staff will do a great job at making recommendations or placing an order for you.

Great location as well.

Take a stroll and pay Book City a visit. ✌️?✌️”
