American Book Store
The American Bookstore is a 100% Queensland owned and operated family business. We began life in 1957 in a small shop in Edward Street, Brisbane City. Founded by an American gentleman, the store imported titles from the USA and Japan not commonly available in Australia.
We are no longer just an American Book store - we stock books, audio material, software, education resources and associated materials from around the world. Even with all this growth we have always felt it was important to maintain the atmosphere created by Maurice and Bertha Zavelsky all those years ago. The ABS continues to be the place to go for hard to get titles and special orders, after all - special orders are our speciality. As part of the QLD community we are proud to support and sponsor local groups and organisations. In particular: QLD Cancer Fund RSPCA Queensland On-going student programs, such as the ETAQ Book Competition and the App. Support Program at Yeronga TAFE as well as sponsoring many schools, colleges and charities The American Bookstore is staffed by a friendly team of professional booksellers. All team members share a dedication to providing prompt, efficient service and knowledgable advice. With so much experience, it's no wonder we are known as "your place for good books". Our long history and continued growth has ensured that our bookstore has developed to meet the requirements of our customers. Let us help you with all your reading needs - 40 years of experience makes us truly Older and Wiser!

Avid Reader
Avid Reader opened in 1997 when Fiona Stager, Kevin and Verdi Guy and Colleen Mullin decided that West End needed a bookstore specialising in new, quality fiction and non-fiction. Since then Avid Reader has grown from strength to strength with the help of our loyal and valued customers.
At Avid Reader we always try to keep the best books in each genre on the shelves. The newest titles are as tempting as lollys in a candy store, but nothing beats the all time great reads. For this reason we carry a mix of new release and backlist titles that have stood the test of time. Avid Reader specialises in personal service with knowledgeable staff, an extensive special order system, book club advice and discounts, gift recommendations, free gift wrapping, and gift vouchers available. We have frequent in-store events including book launches, signings, the Avid Reader open book club and introductory nights for fledgling and established book clubs. The café serves Toby’s Estate coffee and teas and a selection of sweets and savouries. Avid Reader also supports a range of community activities. |
