    Books! Lots of books! You can get books here you know. Of all kinds. Fiction and non fiction. Serious and funny ones. It's over two floors so there are plenty to choose from. Friendly staff.

    Friendly staff and a selection of things called books. Have a quick look up at the chandeliers as you leave as well.

    Fiction, non-fiction, poetry, children's books and graphic novels. Not over-crowded. Good displays.

    New Releases immediately in front of you and generally a good selection. Politics and history at far right end of store. Lots of Moleskines too!
