They say you can`t judge a book by its cover, but here at Kestrel Books, we believe the more worn the cover the better the read. Don`t take our word for it, come pop by our Vancouver shop to find rare books, used books and other hidden treasures. You`ll never know what you`ll find down our bookshelves or maybe you`re interested in adding to our collection. Either way, come in and say hello, Ruby, our Tabby cat ambassador, will greet you at the door.

Our son was looking for a specific basketball card. He found it here. He was told $5.00. My son said he would be back with his allowance. My husband went to buy the card as a surprise for my son for Christmas. The owner gave my husband the card as a gift! Thank you so much!Read more
Even though I do a lot of book shopping online these days I still love going to Chapters and browsing the aisles and aisles and aisles of books. This store is great by virtue of its location and the knowledgeable staff who can guide you to almost any title in the store. It is also a great place to while away an afternoon flipping through books you may buy since the staff pretty much leaves you to your own devices if this is what you are choosing to do. They also have a great little gift section for unique and interesting gift items. They used to have a pretty good music section but this is being renovated right now...possibly because they are no longer going to carry music. Head into Chapters at Broadway and Granville and lose yourself in the books!Read more
