Great selections of books. Glad to see an independent bookshop thriving. It's been here since 1975…read more- keep it going! Having a coffee now...

I had the most delightful coffee from the cart outside here while reading one of the many books…read morerecommended to me on a rainy day recently. I was really impressed by the knowledgeable staff, who are clearly passionate about books, as well as the wide selection available, although it does not include some of the best sellers you might expect (I came in looking for The Immortal Life of Henriette Lacks, which they did not have). Nonetheless, I was recommended something else I'm thoroughly enjoying, and count this shop as easily one of my favorites in Byron.

If you love second-hand hand bookshops then I seriously recommend that you by a ticket to the Gold…read moreCoast and come and check out this place - you will be amazed. For a tourist city famous for beaches, partying, and theme parks the last thing that I expected for find here was a second-hand bookshop of this calibre. Sure, the Gold Coast is a city so I'm sure they would have their second-hand bookshops, but this place literally blew me away. I have never seen so many books crammed onto books shelves in my life, In fact the interior of the shop is a maze that you could end up being lost in for days (though I would probably end up finding you hidden in a corner with a pile of books that you have always wanted to read). Also, it is not one of those boring shops with reused copies of popular fiction - it has literally everything, including antique books. I was only here for ten minutes before my brother was loaded up with books to by, and I had to purchase them and leave because I suspect they wouldn't have let me on the plane to get home. If there is one reason why I want to return to the Gold Coast and it is this place.

I love a second-hand bookshop with a really friendly and chatty owner, particularly one who is…read morereally keen on books. Then again I suspect you can't really run such a shop if you aren't that type of person. The thing is that this place was actually pretty cool. Okay, I couldn't really find any books that grabbed my attention, but then again I was pretty loaded up at the time anyway. Still, there was a decent selection to browse, and quite a good range as well.
