I've been hunting for a book I could only remember the plot of - no title or author. I went in here today as a last resort, hoping that I could find someone who knew the name of this book! I got incredibly lucky and spoke to a lovely lady who immediately knew what I was talking about and didn't look at me like a crazy person. Thank you to whoever that was, now I finally know!

  • Mel S

I love coming here to check out the specials and also the staff are just wonderful here. I feel like I buy more because of how wonderful the staff are! Also the staff actually read books too! So they can recommend good reads too. They are so good to chat to. I got this bargain from them the other day. Loved the books, and this author (Jay Kristoff) is my new favourite.

  • James Collins

This store is my local book store being a 5-10 min bus ride from home. The staff are kind, understanding, patient and show excellent customer service. They have a great system of ordering books in and have the books I like. Its too bad about my budget although going well, I wish I could afford many more books in 1 go hahahaha!! This store deserves 5 stars!

  • Henry Sinclair

4.5 stars - overall quite good, but perhaps need to keep up to date on what is popular, especially in sci-fi, fantasy, and young adult genres. They sometimes have what I want, but popular, new books I would have well expected them to have are nowhere to be seen and have to be ordered in. Otherwise lovely place to shop

  • Narelle Waters

Not impressed. I was asked to sign up as a member, however, I was not informed of the $25 fee until later in the transaction to which I felt obligated to pay. I won't even use the membership. Very sneaky way of signing customers up with a $25 fee, unethical.

  • Emily Cameron

The sales assistant at the checkout was really lovely. She got me transferred over to the new loyalty system and updated my details quickly. She also took the time to explain the loyalty benefits. Great service and I will absolutely shop here again.

  • Cassandra S

I love this QBD, they just recently upgraded the store and even doing so they opened a temporary QBD some where else in Chermside which is great so they always have business. They also have cute little stalls too so that people don’t have

  • Phil Fisher

Great place, was shopping around for a book and they were the only place that had it, they put in on hold behind the counter for me and I came and got it. Impressed with the enthusiastic counter staff too! Well done QBD!

  • Victoria Higgins

This store had a great range and very competitive prices but it's the wonderful customer service and friendly staff that keep me going back. They really take the time to help in any way possible. Love this shop.

  • Angel H.

The lady who served me at the counter on the 06 Janury at 4pm was snappy. No matter If you had a bad day you shouldn't make it too obvious especially If you're at work to provide customer service.

  • Hemi Hadfield

Always a good little store to get books specifically for my toddler as it's more of a hands on experience. I find that the books are well priced and will definitely be back again in the future

  • ROB

Great range of books like you would expect from a book store, only complaint is waited 3wks for a book I could have bought around the corner and staff failed to let me know it was in stock.

  • Stephen Beckett

A great array of books and C.D. ' s also a lot of children' s books. Though if not indoors and to be sold , simply order it from counter, with hardback or soft. People would be amazed!!

  • R L

Lovely staff, helpful. Unfortunately they don’t price match their own online prices which is so bizarre. So I ended up paying $10 more for the same book that I needed that day.

  • Monique Brown

Helpful and polite staff. Always come out with one or more books. The fiction section is great. It’s also slightly cheaper than its rival around the corner.

  • Benu B

A cozy establishment. But limited choices. Most books are pulp and genre fiction. Few poetry. A few literary fiction. Wish they had variety.
