Western Sky Books

Wonderful shop! Ben was amazing. Asked me what I was reading, what I liked and gave me a great book to read! A true gift. He's knowledgeable and kind.

Found something for the whole family and the prices were great. It's where we'll be getting our books from now on.

I love this bookstore so much! The staff here are all so kind and helpful when I have questions about a book! They’ve got a great selection of new books but their used books are my favourite and such a steal! I’m usually able to find some really good contemporary romance books every time I go! Highly recommend everyone support this cute local independent bookstore instead of going to the bigger box stores.

Great collection of rare items and very friendly stuff, quite a rare store of its kind!

What an absolute GEM. Tamara and Dianne are kind and knowledgeable, and their team is also great! The store is literally stacked floor to ceiling with books. I could spend the whole day perusing, and still not see everything.
The store is a bit tucked away, but worth the hunt.
You can bring your used books here and can exchange them for credit, a great idea!
They also sell items from local artisans, which is a nice touch.
Support local business!!! 🌈⭐📚🔖📖

Very good book store that keeps me coming back for more! Very affordable and a GREAT selection. They actually have Folio Society books, as well as an impressive Indigenous collection! Top it all off… they are very friendly and helpful

lovely and friendly staff, not overbearing but also very helpful. the cutest, quaintest bookstore in poco. i love the vibe of this place and they have a great selection of new & used books at reasonable prices. great place if you're looking to get a cute and unique gift as they often have jewelry, candles, stickers, notebooks, reading accessories and more by the till to check out. definitely recommend coming here if you're looking for something a little different than the typical big book store

Great selection of books. The staff are helpful and friendly. A little hidden gem in the mall.

A bit tricky to get to. It's kinda in the alley beside Safeway. Lots of great used books, and a few interesting knickknacks like cat tarot cards. Friendly staff who know their books.

Very helpful staff and have a good selection of books

What a great store! Lots of great books (new and used), eager & friendly staff, and a great atmosphere (i love the smell of books that permeates the store). On top of that, the owner is a pillar of the community who is active in promoting local authors (I bought a signed book there). Highly recommended!

This bookstore is amazing! So many books available, both new and used. The kids books look fun and interesting as well. The owners have other treats for sale including local art and handcrafts. I could browse for hours. I was able to get all my holiday gifts here-one-stop shopping.

A gem of a bookstore with knowledgeable, passionate staff who care about their customers.

Really good staff. I had questions about which fiction to choose because I’ve been out of it for a while and got great recommendations and ended up buying the books.

Ordered several books from Western Sky Books online! Their inventory system was easy to navigate and the pricing for used books is excellent! I love that I can special order in new books from them and pick up used copies of books at the same time. I've only interacted with the staff over the phone twice but each time they were very lovely!

I will absolutely be purchasing all of my books from here from now on. I look forward to visiting the shop one of these days!

The selection of books is diverse and includes many recent award-winners. I was impressed with the immaculate condition of the books I purchased. The staff are knowledgeable and go out of their way to be helpful. I've also purchased some unique gift items, created by local artists.

Hidden Gem
Great selection of amazing books. Well organized but still a bit of the chaotic charm of a book store. It's comfy and cozy and the staff were beyond helpful, finding an out of print book for my friend that wasn't even in their shop but the dreaded Amazon! Now that is service. I cannot believe that this has been in my backyard, so to speak, for two years and I only just found it. I will be back.

Fantastic bookstore! Staff were extremely helpful and provided awesome recommendations. Thank you so much! (PS: the website catalog is great - I found the specific books I saw online very easily in-store!)

They have so many books and some for great prices. The staff was so nice and helpful. I will definitely be coming back for more future reads.

My favorite local and independently owned bookstore. Lots of selection on used and new books plus a lot of local authors and indigenous authors too! Knowledgeable and friendly staff. This is a hidden gem for book lovers!

Cool bookstore with a good selection, staff was very friendly and helpful. All sorts of gems to find here!
