If you're looking for something in particular, especially if it's new, you probably won't find it in here, but it's worth a check.

This is an amazing shop. Its only little but has a wonderful range of books at great prices. For…read moreexample a Horrid Henry book at WHSmith (two minutes walk away) is a fiver, but in the bargain bookshop they're £2 each. The adult paperbacks are £2.99 each and 2 for five pounds and I can always find something I want to buy. They have lots of non fiction books too including a small section on the local area. However this wonderful shop has one massive flaw. The lady who works in there seems to absolutely HATE people, not just children, but all customers. She takes it as a personal insult if you want to buy something, and in the event you want to use a debit card its as though you've slapped her. I'm not sure what the refund policy of this store is, because I would never dare to take something back. I am a friendly person and normally chat to shop assistants, but have never even had a thank you from this lady, let alone a smile. Its such a shame as its a gorgeous shop.

This is quite a small branch. Unfortunately it's situated between a Rymans and Woolworths, and most…read moreitems will be cheaper in one of these than in WH Smiths. The books and CDs/DVDs here tend to be quite expensive. The shop has some nice greetings cards and colourful stationary.

Ooo this shop annoys me on so many levels. Ok heres my rant. Firstly Iv come to the conclusion that…read morethe staff just dont care about their customers, most of them are school kids and this is there Saturday job so all I see them do is stand around gossiping and being as slow as possible. Iv lost count the amount of times Iv stood in a very long que just to buy a paper and there is one person at the tills with at least three others who can see its busy but are aimlessly pretending to tidy shelves or restocking. I thought the customer was supposed to come first, they seem to have their prioroties all wrong. My second bugbear is that I can never get my pushchair round the isles without banging into a display stand. Iv not got a very big pushchair either so im surprised they dont get more complaints, as the isles are very narrow. Lastly, why oh why put all thing kids related on the upper floor? Rant over, I would avoid this shop and go to Woolys instead given the choice!

This bookshop is one of a kind! It is huge and has many entry points along the storefront. It…read morealmost feels like a few shops from the front, but once you go inside, it all connects in the back. The highlight is the large room that has the sunken area full of books. There is even a photo spot marked for you to take it all in on your camera. I love that although it is large and has tons of books, it didn't feel cramped and unorganized. My favorite part of the store was in the back where they had high value books for sale. Thee are one of a kind, super ild editions that are in great condition and there is a whole team to curate and market these books. We got to see them in real life!
