I always get curious when I see a second hand book store. Curio makes me curios! Get it? No... I…read moreguess it wasn't that funny... Curio is a nice little second hand book store located in Hahndorf which stocks some decent second hand books. I was pleased with the selection and there were some hard to find titles I couldn't get ahold of in the city. I would assume that a lot of people wouldn't think to look for hard to find books this far out. Interestingly enough the general tourism crowd that you normally see at Hahndorf don't tend to go into this place all that much, and every time I've been to visit it the store has been quiet. If you're after a hard to find book and have had no luck in the city then maybe venture out to Hahndorf and see what they have to offer.

Here is a real vintage bookshop. Not just an op-shop bookshop that sells second hand new releases,…read morethe books here are old. There are also a lot of vintage books from the region such as 'South Australian Beetles: Part 3,' if you are interested in beetles! I don't think I would personally buy anything from this shop. I didn't look at every book in the store, but I couldn't see anything that I was greatly interested in reading. However, I would suggest coming here if you collect old books of some description or have a specific hobby, for example beetles. A lot of the books are extremely old. Kept in plastic to stop them from breaking, hence would definitely be collector pieces. However, there is a section of slightly more current novels, such as crime. The avid reader would be able to find a few good books here. Even if you don't buy a book it is enjoyable and funny to walk around and look at the old books!

So not really indicative of it's name, The Wax Department stocks new and used CD's, records, DVD's…read moreand a range of local and national t shirts, caps, magazines and other goodies from a variety of different artists and bands. They mainly deal in Hip-Hop music and cover an impressive range in this genre from not only international and national artists, but from an array of up an coming local artists! Not only do they deal in Hip-Hop but there's something for just about everyone here. I'm a sucker for anywhere that sells new and secondhand vinyl, and the few times I have ventured to this store, I haven't left empty handed. Today, I picked up a unique UK Press of an folk band I'm most fond of, I'll say it again, there's something here for everyone. The gentleman who runs the store is very well mannered and is willing to answer any question you may be pondering. One could quite easily spend hours searching through the incredible range of mainly CD's and records that are home to The Wax Department. Prices are reasonable, but if you look hard enough, you'll find a bargain here and there, it's all worth the money anyhow! If you're around the area, or have a particular interest in CD's and vinyl from mainly Hip-Hop artists but from any genre for that matter, call in to The Wax Department, you won't be disappointed.

The name of this shop really reveals nothing about it. When I went into it I had never heard of it…read moreor seen anything like it. I think it is even going to be a struggle to explain. Walk in and you see what looks and smells like a block of chocolate. Next to it, a tin of biscuits. Around the room there are cakes, bottles of wines, soccer balls etc. However, they are all books. Yes books that are made to look like what they are discussing. Inside each of the books it discusses the history of each item, including photos and quotes. I can't decide if this is tacky or cool? Mum and I decided that they would be a lot better if they were notepads or diaries. How good would it be to have a diary that looked and smelt like chocolate? You can't really use a history book too much, but it could be a good dining table book. The lady working there told us that the books were great for presents. Hilarious giving someone a bottle of wine and it actually being a book (I for one would be extremely disappointed). However, it is a good idea for children. They would think it was fun, whilst also learning about their chosen item!

Toots Books is a truly creative concept of a book store and I can't say I've ever seen anything…read morelike it before. They sell books that come in shapes of actual objects such as a chocolate bar, a football, a shoe or a CD. At first glance I didn't even know what it was until the friendly lady behind the counter explained what it's all about. Take for example the book that looks like a bottle of wine: they sell it in a cardboard box that looks like a box with real wine. The book inside then tells the story of wine with plenty of pictures and trivia. I really like the idea of the shop and it's certainly fun to look at all their things. Would I buy it for myself? Probably not, but it can be a great gift idea!

Black Apple is one brand which stands out as being the main brand and the colours and styles are varied. The sizes start at 14 (which I don't consider as large personally) and go all the way up to 34! Building self esteem is another good reason this shop is around as people are not limited for choice and have to resort to just donning a massive sheet like kaftan on, which is not very flattering. For the extra fabric involved in making a piece it is not expensive compared to standard sizes and besides, there are various price tags depending on what you like and what you can afford. So if you know of someone who is struggling to find clothes to fit them and getting a little depressed, this is a good store to go to for sizes and a friendly assisted service.
