Well, I mean... it's a bookstore. And since this is a chain bookstore (and probably the most famous…read morebookstore in Denmark), you know what you get! This particular store is my favourite of them all, with a large selection of english books, sorted into different categories. It's 3 stories high, with a coffee shop on the middle floor (do go and check out my review of it before you decide to go!). The people working there are extremely helpful and if you're in the wrong section for what you're looking for, they'll guide you to the right section so you can get help! Really my only issue with the store is that it feels like the stairs are about to break. They're made of glass and seem really wobbly, but... you know... no one has fallen through yet! ;) They very often have sales, so if you're looking for a good price, this is where I'd go!

It is eclectic store and good to spend some relaxing time in. They have unusual ethnic items that I am not sure where they were from but really nice and tempting. I saw lots of cool. I will go back and enjoy this place because it is an unusual set up and I needed more time. They were close to closing. If you are a bookstore bookie..go. I would recommend this on your list of Denmark. It's not all Denmarkyish but worth a stop.

Lovely staff - tip; if the book you want is damaged in some way they'll usually give it to you 10% off. I can't say much about the Danish section, since I only read on English, but there is definitely a wide range of selections in the English section - YA books, fantasy, sic-fi, fiction, non-fiction. You name it, they have it and on the off-chance they don't, they'll immediately offer to order it home for you, and you won't have to pay for shipping or anything. Usually an English book is 100kr. Danish books, according to my mum, are averagely priced for Danish books. Amazing amazing place that practically feels like home!

Or you can order it. But it has no real personality and takes no stand on what books to have and which ones to just get rid of. Yes. I am a snob. Very much so when it comes to literature, and I love a bookstore that doesn't sell the supermarket bestsellers, but makes a point to highlight the new talents and old classics. Politikens Boghandel is not that place.
