I did an author reading at Nicholas Hoare a couple of years ago. There was no sign on the door and nothing on the sandwich board out front (until I put it there myself), and when the other author and I asked politely if we might have a glass of water or something, a staff member -- who was carrying a tray of tea things at the time -- advised us to go buy bottled water at the Dominion across the street. Then he gave the other staff members the tea.

Needless to say, I have avoided the place since.]]>

This list reads like a well-worn path from which the traveler never looks up. I'm wondering what the reason is for the omission of Ben McNally Books as well. Ben McNally Books carries discerning titles in a beautiful environment with knowledgeable staff.

On another note, sadly, David Mirvish Books has closed its doors.]]>

What's the book store that stocks mostly discontinued or older books?  I can't remember the name of it but I found some great books there.  It's two floors and decently big.]]>

I've always thought Elliot's on Yonge is a terrific bookstore. Always find what I want, it's endearingly messy and the spiral staircase to the top floor is really cool.]]>

Totally agree with you, James. Ben McNally is a one-man bookselling institution in Toronto, and has been for more than 15 years. Nicholas Hoare is another perennial favourite.]]>

Really enjoying all your Best Ofs, but you've missed the boat on this one. Most of this list reads like it was compiled 5 years ago. Ben McNally Books is a far superior bookstore, actively involved in the literary and publishing communities, and it has a far larger selection than most of the bookstores listed here, especially boutique Type and This Ain't the Rosedale Library, which seem more interested in promoting graphic novels than books without pictures.]]>

Perhaps you should have a best of specialty bookstores.

Parentbooks has the best selection of books for parents that i've found.  Largest section on ASD or ADD or any other topic.]]>
