Great neighborhood bookstore! Best approach is to go in without a specific book in mind. Explore the huge collection (some shelves are two rows deep) and then give them all your money.Lawrence is the only bookstore of its kind left in the city and deserves the attention and traffic of a Chapters outlet.

Not a great looking exterior, but dont be fooled. Huge selection of books, and lots of interesting finds to be had. Accepts visa which ive found to be unusual for a used book store. The lady who is usually on cash is quite knowledgeable about what is in stock, although the shelves are not super well organized.

Come for rare finds, huge selection, and the adventure! Don't expect organization, and the fiction section is freezing in the winter-- it's part of the charm. Super helpful and knowledgeable owner. Very reasonable pricing. This place is a Vancouver gem.

Nice place. I sometimes go there to find old books to give as gifts, or to get a certain edition of a book. Allows trade-ins, so it's a good place to go to if you go through lots of books (like my neighbor who likes murder mysteries).

What is this freaking store!?!?I've lived here for two years and its never opened, no one's been in, and literally nothing has been disturbed inside this store for the last two years. All the books in the window are horrible faded by the sun, and I've looked into the front register but it looks like it's covered in dust and nothing's happened in here.This has literally been vexxing me for two years now. I have so many questions. It actually creeps me out quite a bit

It was a good book place. It was quite old too but I guess it was just the surrounding and its stocks. It can get a little bit of dark going to the corners of the store. I also like the vintage books available here and I bought a few because my friend from overseas like it so much and she really collects vintage books from other countries. I really appreciate this book store.

One of the best and last used book stores on the coast. Inside one is brought into another world. It is beautiful, if you like old books and that chocolatey, well-worn ancient smell. Love this place.

Not bad, but... They have pretty decent variety available, and I did find a good book there, but their hardcovers are a bit over-priced. No wonder they seem so stuffed with stock. With prices like that, stock won't move. I found one HC book I would've bought, but it was clearly damaged and yet priced as though it was in excellent condition. I asked for $5 off due to the damaged pages and was curtly refused. Fine then. But do you ever expect to sell it? Not at that price.

Hardly any walking room. Very crowded with books in boxes on the floor blocking shelves. Some hard to reach shelves. A book lover's dream but only if you find what you wanted. Bit dusty and musty from the smell of old books. Some very old volumes of classics if that's your thing. I only visit if I think there might be something of interest. Not a bookstore for the contemporary browser.

When will it re-open since it says here that it is temporarily closed.
