Quite a few bookstores in Amsterdam, and this one caught our eye just because the books are used…read moreand in English. Three floors with books stacked floor to ceiling on bookshelves with 10-12 shelves each. They even have a staff recommendation area, which was fun to peruse. Excellent organization of available books, separated nonfiction and fiction (also separated into genre). The owner was very knowledgeable and patient and kind. Ahead of me in line, he listened to a gentleman who was eager to tell him about the books he's read. Then he helped the next lady to find fiction in Morocco, even suggesting several authors to look up. I bought a fiction book that looked interesting (my stack of books to read grows faster than I can keep up--it's awesome). If you're in Amsterdam, this is a great place to visit to find a book to enjoy as you drink. coffee, between people watching, of course! Highly recommend!!

I love the layout and the feel (and smell) of a used bookstore and this one did not disappoint. The sci-fi/fantasy section was wonderful and I wish I had more time to peruse, though I did find a nice paperback for the flight home. The person working, Fred (I think that was his name) was pleasure to converse with (pic attached). Again, I wish I had more time. Definitely recommend to anyone who visits the city and loves to read.

Comics Import Amsterdam. CIA. Ring the doorbell…read more Two dogs will start barking at you, which is their job, but once you're inside, they are so sweet. Charles, the owner of the business, is perhaps the most interesting person we met on this trip. His business is the hub of comics imported from USA and exported worldwide. Inside are shelves and boxes, everywhere. And there is Charles, busily organizing what he can. My husband found a Dr. Strange graphic novel which he had been wanting to read, and we asked the price. Charles told us that it was the USA price but in Euros (15.99 euros). Very reasonable, I thought. So if you're looking for a specific comic in Amsterdam, for a reasonable price, this is where to find it.

Very quaint shop that has a wide selection of mangas and comics (as well as some novels). They have…read moreone of the biggest selection of manga that I've seen in the Netherlands. The owner is super kind. My boyfriend asked him a ton of questions and he patiently answered all of them. Collecting comics started out as a personal hobby of his, and then he started helping others acquire comics, and eventually it eventually grew to a shop. You'll find a lot of niche books you won't find elsewhere. As someone currently learning Dutch, I was thrilled to find manhua in Dutch (especially since that doesn't seem to be a thing anymore). The book prices are insanely affordable. The next time you're in the area, I recommend checking them out. You may just find what you're looking for, and if not, maybe something new to enjoy!

I always try to stop in here every once in a blue moon to see if a book will stand out for me to purchase. Once in a while, I get lucky to find a book that strikes my interest.
