The store itself is also very cute. It is a nineteenth-century house and every room, including the kitchen, is covered in beautifully arranged bookshelves. Specialties include cookbooks, fiction and children's books but there's plenty to be found on many different topics. If you're looking for rare items, gifts for friends, or a novel to read on the ferry, make sure to check out this shop as you tour southwestern Nova Scotia.

All in the same size store. It is chaos. And it's awesome. I'm always on the search for a specific issue of a comic I read in the 80s that I need to complete my collection (boy, does that sound geeky). So of course we had to stop in here. There is very little room for people. It's floor-to-ceiling books, comics, trading cards, games, etc. They have absolutely everything, but good luck finding it. Boxes on top of boxes of comics in sort-of order. Fortunately the owner knows where everything is. He's a very busy man, from the looks of it; the store was very busy on our visit, and it was a Tuesday. If you love digging (literally) through mountains of media in search of a hidden jewel, you will absolutely love this place. Definitely worth a drive to the valley.

It's a great stop for students, tourists, and locals. Many students will sell their old textbooks here and some (I'm not sure about all) professors at Acadia will order their books through him instead of the campus book store because it costs the students less. If you're a student on a tight budget, a visitor interested in some local literature, or just somebody in need of an interesting read, check out The Odd Book.

More often than not something I was looking for was in stock and I went home with a new CD to lose myself in. I almost never had to special order anything. All the staff I've ever dealt with (Usually owner Gordie) have been rad, laid back and helpful. The selection ranges from a good amount of local albums, a healthy dose of indie staples and new albums from bands that matter. If you're looking for music more along the lines of top 40, this isn't your place. The used selection is always healthy and will probably have something you're looking for - and often at an incredible price. Stop by and see just how great this store is. Saint John is lucky to have it.
