If your idea of a perfect afternoon is getting lost in a bookstore, save this one 📚🤍

Seven of my favourite indie bookstores in Toronto in no particular order, from secondhand finds and affordable reads to books + vinyl and a shop dedicated to romance:

1. Doug Miller Books
2. Balfour Books
3. She Said Boom!
4. BMV Books
5. Book Bar
6. Another Story Bookshop
7. Hopeless Romantic Books

There are SO many more indie bookstores in Toronto… these are just a few I love 😇
Which bookstore should I visit next? Drop your favourite in the comments!! I’m always looking for another reason to buy a book 📖
