Ah! My second home! Whenever I am in Würzburg, I always pay a visit to Hugendubel, and in…read moreparticular, the English book section. What I love about this store is that they never seem to mind if you read some of the book before buying (they have places to sit, just for this purpose!). You can also order stuff, which normally takes 24 hours to arrive, and there is a small coffee shop area. The only bad thing I have to say about my heaven is that they are very inflexible about the book pricing. There have been many times when Amazon has seriously outpriced them on certain books, but Hugendubel refuses to reduce their prices to compete. I find it very hard to believe that they don't check Amazon to find out what their biggest competitor is selling books for. Yet months later, the books in Hugendubel sit there with their old more expensive prices. Despite that little niggle, this is the best place to pick up your books, if you are in the area.

It houses way more books than it looks like it was from the outside and has a really quaint and cozy bookstore vibe. The staff was also very polite and we were able to find some really interesting titles. As you would guess most of the titles are in German, but I was able to find many English versions as well. It's free to enter and I believe this is a must visit while in Heidelberg, especially for any reading fans.

They even had a whole bunch of VERY OLD books in English. Under the big table on the left side;…read morethree shelves - and more books behind those. Reasonable too. Minus one star because they're very very dusty. My eyes were itchy after.

Luckily the Oxfam bookshop has a small English book section, and I regularly have a look see for any new additions. The books on offer are usually in good condition, a couple of times I've found a bit of a scribbler has been at them though. Naturally the German selection is much wider and they're a reasonable price (the ones I buy usually end up back in the shop after I've struggled through them). The staff are usually friendly and helpful and a couple of them speak English, which was useful when the only German I knew was Zwei Bier, bitte. If you want to buy a book or donate a book it's well worth a visit.
