If I were to ever run a bookstore, I hope that it has the diversity that Antarctica has. While I…read moreentered the shop without a real game plane and virtually zero knowledge of Spanish or how to use Chilean Pesos, the bookseller was very patient with me. I purchased a notebook, and felt a little bewildered as there was no price listed on it (and I did not know how to ask in Spanish). It wasn't until later that I learned that I paid a very reasonable, comparable price, so I wanted to make sure that they receive a fair review. The selection of books is primarily in Spanish, but English-speaking ex-pats and tourist rejoice, there is a humble English language section. The stationery products are peppered throughout the foyer of the shop and the counter is overrun by impulse items. I hope to spend more time there on my next visit.

Kind of Blue...yes, like the famous jazz album. This is the store you want to visit if you're…read morereally interested in music. Here you can found a great variety of albums and excellent advice from the sellers, too! As a matter of fact, I bought right here a special Frank Sinatra album for my father. You can ask the sellers anytime if you want to know a little more about what you're buying. The store also offers vinyls and films, so there's a lot to pick from. But above all, I really really recommend this place for its fair prices. Sometimes you can even get discounts. You won't regret the visit.
