Il était plus que temps que les résidents de NDG profitent d'un commerce à proximité où ils peuvent enfin s'approvisionner de bons bouquins!!

At the corner of Monkland and Girouard in NDG is this quiet little pearl of a magazine store…read more Go ahead and browse, you won't be bothered. They have everything you want or they will order it for you. Very nice staff, clean and attractive store. Don't drive there, there's nowhere to park on Monkland but make a trip there if you're looking for birthday cards, magazines or fun kitchen gifts.

There are many Multimags, but this one is special and mine. I have come here for my preferred pens,…read moreand for the Moleskin city books and other careful notebooks which I like to give as gifts for travellers. They have an arts section I like, and good cooking magazines in French and English, and new literature and they keep perfect white Laphams Quaterlies neatly stacked. When fashion week comes they have the great big gorgeous season books in the back which I love to look at longingly but generally can't afford. I like the staff here too and the odd coffee table books piled around hoping you or I will take them home.

Large selection of magazines and some great looking cookbooks, but looked like a lot of them were in French. I didn't bother to ask about English versions. There were some cute Montreal souvenirs and gifts that were not cheesy. A nice assortment of notebooks and pens, even calligraphy pens and ink bottles! Old school. There was a great adult coloring kit that was on sale. I was so tempted but it was so heavy! I'll have to return when I have car access or one of those granny shopping rollerbags. There were some other random cute stuff like nail clippers shaped like a cat; tin pill boxes that actually looked cool, not like the ones you find at a pharmacy; and yes, there are great wooden toys. My favorite was the wooden espresso machine. How appropriately Little Italy.

It is a large size paper (not a tabloid) with many books printed everyday. The Saturday edition is the thicker one. The Sunday edition (started only a couple years ago) is the smallest one.
