Magers & Quinn was voted Best Used Bookstore in City Pages, 2012! Beside the vast selection and friendly staff, there offer amazing reading and discussion programs.

Be prepared to spend hours wandering among this beautiful bookstore. Used and new books mixed together on the shelves. Also, Very helpful staff if you are looking for something rare.

For your first time here, start at the back and walk the stacks to get the lay of the land.

This is an excellent bookshop, on par with Powell's (though smaller!), and Strand (though closer!).

Maybe the best used book store in the Twin Cities! Plus it's next to Amazing Thailand and their Tom Yum Soup!

Long live independent bookstores! Sometimes, you'll get lucky and stumble upon a reading. Stay and listen even if you've never heard of the author!

Wonderful book selection. Definitely pay attention to their facebook page to find out about author events.

Is way bigger on the inside than it looks from the outside... very cool little book stop, though pales in comparison to Powell's City of Books (Portland, OR)

Simply the best bookstore in town with the most knowledgeable staff! And, they always bring in great writers on their tours.

Voted as the 2010 Best Used Bookstore in City Pages, the stock of used books is not only massive, it’s diverse and well chosen.

Expansive and affordable selection of books on film, and lots of hard to find comics!

Browse the shelves in this huge independent book store for new and used books. Also stop in for frequent book readings/signings by local authors.

They have one of the coolest designer notebooks for categorizing projects. Cute. Quiet. Wish they had coffee.
