Excellent selection and customer service. I always find amazing books here. They are particular about what they buy which is fantastic for people looking to buy, give you a fair price towards store credit and are really good at steering you to an area if you ask. Friendly, knowledgeable, and great conversation. Highly recommend.

My fiancée and I visited about a week ago to get a bunch of books for a wedding project we're working on. We phoned ahead and told the staff of our plans, and they were very supportive. When we arrived, they had picked out a stack of books for us and then helped us find more books from their shelves to match our wedding colours.The entire staff was friendly and helpful, and one of the staff members even helped us carry the books to our car across the street. We're incredibly grateful to the staff, and we'll definitely be back for all our used book needs. I highly recommend Westside Stories to everyone for both their stellar service and extensive selection.Thanks for your help!

Great selection, especially of old science fiction, good prices and very friendly staff, but i am tempted to deduct half a star because it's always so darn hot in the store... just kidding. I genuinely love this store and will continue popping in whenever I have an extra $20 or so, because I doubt I'll ever have any trouble finding a few books to grab.

Lovely little shop with a fantastic library of all sorts of in Westdale area. Honest values, and they also offer appraisal.

It seemed like a great book store but I didn't make it past the entrance way before they told me to wear a mask. The owners seemed more than happy to kick me out when I declined. They explained, as an independent store, they can do what they want. Completely backwards thinking. If you enjoy a cool bookstore and have high tolerance for ignorance, this place is worth the trip.Aug 13, 2022

This is a wonderful used bookstore; I stop by regularly and always find something.There is much more inside than you would guess from the size of the exterior ! There are books everywhere (as there should be) but everything is extremely well-organized: history, psychology, religion, philosophy, classic literature, biography, literary fiction, gender studies, black literature, world literature, anthologies, poetry and more, all have their sections, and there is always a good turnover. Don't miss the downstairs -- there is a huge collection of science ficton and fantasy, including classic, pulp, retro, plus occult, crime fiction, classic Penguins, young adult lit and more.

One of the best second hand bookstores around (including Toronto). Has the books you want and those you didn't even know you needed yet!

Awesome used books store. I collect paperbacks by a number of authors in a variety of genres. I am always able to find something I want here. A truly great shop run by a friendly, knowledgeable couple who pay attention to their customer's preferences and have their shelves well organized.
