GRRREeat second-hand used book store! I came here over the…read moreweekend looking for a few titles after having consulted the usedbookcircle.com website. The thing with second hand bookstores, they can either be in a state of complete chaos, where the book title you're looking for *may* be there but because nothing is organized, you may miss it altogether OR the bookstore can be so meticulously and methodically well-organized that you end up walking out with some book titles you weren't even looking for in the first place. This is what happened to me at Beazley Books located in the quaint and picturesque Pointe-Claire village. The owner was also very nice and seemed to know quite a bit about the writers I picked up. Yeah, I know it's the West Island, but the distance is a lot longer in your head than it really is. I actually timed myself and found that I was there in 30 minutes flat from Lionel Groulx metro on the weekend. It's definitely worth a visit. While you're here you can browse the other many cute little shops, and grab some lunch at the local cafe

There's several sections labeled discretly, such as history, fiction, youth, even Japanese! There's also a neat 5$ clearance area in the back. Book browsing is defininely a timeless passtime, and I hope many can find a moment to indulge in it (especially with all the stress around us these days). For example, I found an absolutely gorgeous edition of The Divine Comedy (Penguin Classics Deluxe Edition) that made my wallet itch! Do take a minute to enter Argo and look for your own Golden Fleece!

Small bookstore who can get you book much faster than the big stores. very nice and friendly staff. The only little thing, but it is expected outside Montreal, is that the english choice of books is not that wide. But again, like I said, they do order fast. Seriously, I encourage anyone around the Rosemère area to take the time to stop by. Shop local! --- Je pense rarement à ce magasin pour les livres et CD, et je suis toujours impressionnée par le bon service et les bons prix que j'y trouve. Je me dois de faire l'effort de penser à ce magasin plus souvent vs les grandes chaînes. Petit magasin de livres qui commande bien plus vite que les grands magasins reconnus. Un personnel très amical. La seule petite chose, mais ceci est attendu en région, est que la sélection de livres anglophones est petite. Mais encore, je le répète, ils commandent bien plus vite que les grands magasins. Séreiusement, j'encourage tout le monde de la régiond e Rosemère à prendre le temps d'y arrêter. Magasinez localement!

From the owner: Gilles Vigneault, Avec les mots du dimanche - 1979. Dès 1944…read moreGaston Poulin ouvrait sa première librairie dans la ville de Québec; la Librairie du Quartier Latin. Il fonda également le Club du livre du Quartier Latin (premier club du livre au Québec!) ainsi que les Éditions du Quartier Latin.

Il en est devenu le troisième propriétaire. Pionnier dans le monde du livre au Québec, il y a oeuvré toute sa vie, soit plus de 60 ans.

Our favorite bookstore in NDG continues to hold that title. We brought some books in, donated what…read morethey wouldn't make use of, and spent far too long roaming and acquiring books. I'm always impressed by the variety. You see something new every time you go in because they offer such an impressive collection of items. We even got hockey cards for surprise gifts for family this time around! Some items are more expensive but we got an edition of The Wizard of Oz that was still wrapped and originally worth quite the pretty penny that we will be gifting to a loved one. It was an amazing experience once again today. For the first time, I think I spent more time looking at their prints and I wanted to buy nearly every Singin' In The Rain one... Hardy Boys galore... it was overall just a lot of fun to visit this store. We'll be back for our quarterly visit in no time.

If you live in the area and listen to vinyl records, you should come in here regularly…read more They have a section of newly acquired records, so once you've browsed their full catalogue thoroughly, it's easy to drop in whenever you're walking by and see what's new. They have lots of records for 5 bucks, which is something like an old movie rental price. Even if I only listen to something once, the experience is worth 5 bucks. They also have way more expensive records, like limited editions of Tom Waits or whatever, which occasionally run closer to a hundred. So there's a huge range, if you're looking to spending a tiny bit of pocket money, or if you're looking to make a major investment for your collection. They also have books. I honestly use the library for books more than buying them, but sometime when I'm in here for vinyls, something on the bookshelf catches my eye, and the prices are fair. It is packed, though. Sometimes where there are a lot of customers, it is very hard to move around and look for things. So much stuff in a such a small space is a double-edged sword. This 5-star review is for my visits outside of peak times, for the selection, service, and price. During peak times, maybe only worth 4 stars because it's so hard to navigate. But the popularity is a sign of the quality, so it's hard to quibble with that.
