“Audrey’s punches above its weight: it has the cozy ambiance, selection, and knowledgeable staff of a renowned bookstore in a huge city like New York or Toronto.

If you live in Edmonton and are searching for literary nirvana, no pilgrimage to a huge metropolis is necessary — Audrey’s hides in plain sight, smack dab in the heart of the city on Jasper Ave. Despite the chaotic and busy surroundings, when you go through the doors, the hustle and bustle of the busy thoroughfare fades away.

Packed to the gunwales with a carefully curated mix of classics and new bestsellers, in the unlikely event that you cannot find what you’re looking for, the staff are more than willing to order it in or make a thoughtful recommendation. Levy (sp?) has been particularly helpful, but all the staff have been pleasant and well-read.

A+”

“Wandered into this bookstore this weekend looking for a new read that would suit my current mood. Clean, lots of new and used options. I bought my niece the cutest little “reader in training” tote as well. Reasonably priced books. They organize book clubs as well so recommend checking it out:)”

“I've been dealing with Liegh at Comic Fever for many more years than I can remember. He brought in several of the Archies series comics digests for me and even gave me a discount because of the volume I purchased. He has always been excellent to deal with and I highly recommend Comic Fever for your comic book and related items needs. He carries many, many different comics, so you will probably find what you need there. And if not, Leigh might be able to find it!”

“The experience in the store was fine. It was the $86.00 ticket I got to park and shop for my card that was the issue…..
parking in this area is disgusting. Too bad that’s where you are located ?‍♀️”

“Stumbled across this while stopping for breakfast next door. Nice location and a nice selection of old SciFi/Fantasy. Not alphabetical and stacked two deep so be prepared to do a little work looking at the titles. Only a half-dozen shelves though. Lots of other topics and books to choose from, but not my area of interest. Prices were reasonable for old paperbacks”

The layout is welcoming, and there’s always something new and fascinating to discover, whether it’s crystals, tarot cards, or unique gifts.

“Nice, friendly ,...bit dark inside and it seemed no one wanted to come out from behind the desk and show us any great products , I told them we were first timers in there and he didn’t seem to want to take advantage of that or even show us around - kind of adult boys there that have not grown up from their toys-
and wow in that smallish square store is packed in a " collection of collections"...I am talking about a huge collection of many of your favourite popular trading cards, horror stories memorabilia , Movie collectables, Star Trek stuff (and probably some Star Wars stuff too ( very crowded),
rock n' roll stuff, collectables .. some stuff is kind of knickknack like mugs and T-shirts but I'm sure there's something there for every collector. Don't get me wrong. I do love these types of stores.
Unfortunately,though, they had no idea how to point us in a direction to help us find another store /place that bought Pokémon cards
still - but he sure wanted to talk about magic the gathering !”
