In the meantime, I would rate Avid in West End, Pulp Fiction in the Brisbane CBD and Mary Ryan's on Park Road, Milton. Used to like McGills but they are closing sadly, and was also a fan of Borders.

As well as providing affordable books, it also offers opportunities to volunteer and become absorbed in the world of books that none of the commercial bookstores can offer.

Did you know there are 32 of them in Brisbane, plus a mobile library? Why pay for books when you can borrow 'em for nothing? Definitely the libraries.

Where else can you pick up the lastest books for free or if you have to put a book on hold it only costs 80 cents? Yes you don't get to keep the books but hey at least it doesn't hurt my hip pocket money wise. Although officallly not a book store my Fav bookstore in Brisbane is any of the local libraries.
