Doug Miller Books

Ever since I moved into this neighbourhood 8 years ago, Doug Miller Books has been one of my favourite shops to frequent. They just recently moved across the street to a bigger store and its fantastic! He has an amazing collection of fiction, comics, manga and children’s books. When speaking to him he told me that he actually has a lot of rare books as well.
On the rare occasion that I haven’t found I book I was looking for, Doug actually offered to order it for me and then phone me when he had it in stock.
100% recommend this place just for the experience of being in a cozy shop crammed with books. You also can’t beat the prices.
P. S. The lego counter is awesome

BOOKS. COMICS. LEGOS!!!
I been coming here for almost 6 years fell in love with this great book store.
You can find almost anything here. I come for the cheap comics and walking dead novels. At a comic book store you pay a arm and a leg. Here it’s Half of the price or even cheaper.
Great staff that while go out of their way help you search for what your looking for. A pet rabbit and a bunch of Legos. The counter is cover in Lego it’s great.
Great local store.

So, this is the first time I’ve been there and i want to go again. Basically this store has a cool, non-​judgmental vibe, that welcomes me as much as the owner. The owner knows his stuff about books, my friend is a book lover (she has a large amount of books in storage and is attain more as we speak) and she can only aspire to be as much as a bookie as him. He has books all over the place, he ahs books in storage (multiple places), he has a 15year pet rabbit, and is just overall cool.
I got the book i wanted today, no hassle and surprisingly cheap, in near mint condition. The book’s movie is just about to come out in theaters, so every time I look for the paperback edition, all is see is the actors pretty faces. Now, don’t get me wrong they’re pretty. But, I want the original cover that reflects about the books main plot and had the producers think that the cover was so great that they decided to mass produce a bunch of merchandise off of it.
And I went in saw it in the front glass display and said «I wonder if he has anymore copies of this one, I’ve been looking for it.». He without prompt, gives me the one from the front area, is like «Hey, it’s also amazing cheap.», and later explains to me why the actors faces have be on the books when the movies come it.
Then my friend mumbles to herself that maybe they have the book she been looking for because it cost alot at her regular store and she can’t seem to find it.
And like the book magician he is, goes into his little fountain of books at the front of his desk, pulls out THE book and gives to her. It’s used, but in amazing condition. We pay, leave with similes in our hearts, and now i decided to write a view.
Stop in. This place is awesome.
P. S.: THERE’S SHELVES OF JUST MARVEL/​DC COMICS, AND SOME ARCHIE BOXES. FUN~

Phenomenal selection of comic collections, young adult and fantasy/​Sci-​Fi — plus Lego! Immaculately organized like a well maintained library and I found lots on the $ 1-​$ 2-​$ 3 shelves. Lots of Retro young adult and children’s books too. Prices reasonable and the owner is friendly and knowledgable.

Like it alot very close by me and convenient has a good selection like the comic books fair prices

Terrific little bookstore. It is small, but the space is used well. A good selection of fiction and non-​fiction, with a particularly good selection of children’s novels and graphic novels. A nice dollar table outside. The staff are helpful but not intrusive if you just want to browse for a bit. They will keep an eye out for books you want. A great place in the neighbourhood. And a bunny!

What a gem of an independent store. Abound not cluttered, smells of books not dust… this store has new and gently enjoyed books with enough selection that you don’t feel overwhelmed. I bought three children’s books but could’ve bought myself a shelf full of Marvel books. Alas, I have a plane to board and cannot bring it all back with me. Doug is knowledgable and passionate about his business and neither stuffy nor pushy. Toronto has many must-​visit stops for me. I just added another one to my list. Great business Doug! It was a pleasure to chance upon this gem.

love this place. best bookstore in the city. Ask Doug anything and he will know!

I’ve been looking to off-​load a few books so thought I would pop in here to see what they were like. It’s floor-​to-​ceiling shelves, and piles, and stacks of fiction with some cook books thrown in for good measure. This place is so packed that you couldn’t even tell where the cashier was until he said hello.
Most of my books are business related so it was a no-​go for me here. But if you like your sci-​fi or fantasy there’s a good mix of new and used.
Oh, and there’s a bunny. So there’s that.
February Food-​Free Unilocaling Challenge ¹⁸⁄₂₉

Quaint neighbourhood bookshop that features a not-​insignificant selection of sci-​fi, fantasy, and fiction. It’s tight in here, so lover of carbs are advised to be careful while traversing their thin book-​filled aisles.
This place is positively loaded with tomes old and new. Some key finds include old-​school volumes of Nancy Drew books and some brand new Asterix the Gaul and Tin Tin. They do have some non-​fiction picks, but I think this is primarly a store for story seeking geeks. I spotted quite a few bound comic books and graphic novels too.
The prices seemed pretty fair as well. Put down that donut and pay them a visit.
Obligatory Title Pun: I DOUG it.
Menu Readability: Great sign out front, but all the signage in the store is way, way too high.
Need to mention: They have a store rabbit named Bumpkin. He had a lot of heart.
What this place teaches me about myself: I like my fiction scienced.

Librairie de quartier, ici sont principalement vendus des livres et romans de science fiction, fantasy et polar. L’endroit est rempli de livres du sol au plafond et il est difficile de se frayer un chemin. L’accueil est cependant courtois et on se fera un plaisir de vous conseiller.
PS: dites bonjour au lapin!

I didn’t buy anything (my friends did) but the man behind the counter was still totally pleasant and chatty, even in the tiny, cramped space. We had a nice conversation about museums, and boy did he know his stuff.
Great selection, reasonable prices, and a bunny? Worth a browse, for sure.

This is a great bookstore. Doug knows his inventory intimately and is helpful. He carries mostly gently used and a few new books at discount prices. I’m not sure about the prices on the used books but i’ve heard they are reasonable (~$ 5).

Used bookstore in Korea-​town. Perfect for if I am too lazy to walk another few blocks into the Annex.
This place is affiliated with «Seekers» bookstore in the Annex. I heard the owner mention they had to open up a second location as they didn’t have enough room.
They seem to carry primarily Fantasy & Science Fiction, Mystery, Current Fiction plus a lot of children’s and young adult books. Really good place to pick up used Fantasy/​Sci-​fi — the selection was huge.
The shop is quite tiny and it’s absolutely rammed with books. Each aisle is so narrow that it’s difficult to squeeze by another customer or see the top/​bottom shelves. Looks like this should be improved once they are finished unpacking and organizing more books.
Friendly owner. Good prices. Caged rabbit. Not bad!
