A list for book lovers in New Zealand

"The Hard to Find Book Shop in Onehunga is my favourite book store in the world. Crammed into the small space is a labrynth of sections spanning from classics to the occult and everything in between. Here you’ll find many treasures and curiosies that will excite even the most jaded of book buyers! If you love books, this is your place."

"I really like magazines. There’s something about there glossy pages, exciting content and somewhat throwaway nature that enthralls me. Mag Nation has an extensive range of magazines, from fashion, culture, woman’s interests to cars and hunting they have it all. Keep a look out for air freighted volumes as the shop gets a bunch of products not found elsewhere in Auckland. I’m also a sucker for Moleskin notepads which they stock in abundance!"

"Unity Books is a bookshop for book lovers. The store holds a great selection of fiction and non-fiction books spanning the mainstream to special interest books. The staff are always helpful and you can tell they are passionate about words. Recommended."

"I live literally 200 meters away from Dear Reader but I'd never set foot inside til last week. I was on a mission to find a present for my sister's birthday and time was running low. It was just what I was looking for. The shop isn't huge but there is a great selection of quality fiction and non fiction. The shop assistant was helpful and help me find exactly what i was after. I picked up a cook book that I'm sure she will love."
