Dartmouth Book Exchange is a bookstore located at 1187 Cole Harbour Road, just East of Forest Hills Parkway that sells quality used books and a collection of new books by local authors. Independently owned and operated by Amy McIsaac since 2000, we have over 2000 square feet of retail space to shop and browse. We mainly sell popular fiction, similar to what you might find at Chapters. In general,

the prices of our books are $5.00 each for a regular paperback (when you buy 3 or more). Trade Paperbacks (larger soft covers) and Hardcovers sell for between $8.00 and $10.00 each (generally). Most books are in very good to like-new condition. We have a large selection of Paranormal & Erotic Romance, Young Adult Fiction, Sci-Fi, and fantasy as well as Manga and Graphic Novels. We have a Children’s Room that contains over 2,000 books, including some French ones. These are but a few of the types of books we carry and all of our books are searchable in our database. We have some specialty tables such as Canada Reads, “Blind Date with a Book”, Book Club table, High Demand Table, & our Seasonal Table. The books on our specialty tables change regularly. Sometimes you’ll find an author spotlighted if their Birthday is around the corner or they are celebrating some other Milestone. We are constantly evolving to make a better shopping experience for our customers. The store also supports Local Authors and provides a “Space” for the community to meet not just Local Authors, but other community members with a similar interest in reading.

This is sound logic. It's the only reasonable response to all the restraint you've shown.

Today we had a Big Dill Early Release Party for Cathryn Fox’s brand-new Pickleball Rom-Com set in Churchill Falls, Newfoundland. It will not be officially released to the public until September, but it was available to our event attendees first! With either stenciled edges or regular. We had an interesting conversation, a pickleball quiz, cupcakes, chocolate mini books, and some fun, immature pickling fun. Author Cathryn Fox
