S	Sonja Drueke on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Librairie Paragraphe is a lovely small bookstore. It is always fun to browse around. They have a great selection of books and merchandise. I love that the shelves are very organized and title can be found easily. The staff always takes their time when approached with questions or requests.
A	Alissa Ortega on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This has been one of my favorite bookstores for a long time - I've spent countless hours here browsing for novels and course textbooks. The staff has always been courteous and helpful. However, my last experience disappointed me a little and I hope this review can help the Paragraphe team improve their customer service. A couple of hours prior to coming to Paragraphe, I wanted to assure that the textbook I was looking for was available in store. I called the store and they assured me that not only did they have a copy of the book I was looking for, but that they would reserve it for me...only to show up to the store a couple of hours later, and the book that was reserved for me was not at all what I was looking for (I was looking for Quebec's Code of Civil Procedure and the store had instead reserved a copy of the Civil Code of Quebec). While I understand that this mixup could've happened to anyone, what particularly upset me was the fact that the person who attended to me had not even apologized for his mistake. I was courteous, I made sure to call the store a couple of hours earlier to prevent unnecessary ambulation in the store to respect public health guidelines and I told him I had come from an hour away, as no other bookstore had this book. To try and brush off his mistake, the person offered to look for the actual book in the store's inventory (the store didn't have any online - I figured that by going in person, they had some physical copies). But he never actually apologized for his error. I hope that this wonderful Montreal institution continues to value the importance of customer service in the long run!
L	Levi Cole on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Lovely bookstore close to McGill. It feels more like an independently owned bookstore so you feel like you're supporting an independent business instead of a large corporation. This place is so good that I was recommended it by Munro's Books in Victoria BC. They focus more on coursebooks for business, econ, and literature, but still have a great selection for recreational readers.
H	HuSSaiN MaHDi on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Big collection of books and also they have 70% discount on few of them

R	Rebecca on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I walk in, CLEARLY very pregnant and having forgotten my mask in the car that dropped me off, to see if I can purchase a single-use mask there. Two employees gather up quickly, asking me to wash my hands and put a mask on as soon as I walked in, like I am a walking virus. I explain that I forgot my mask and looking to get one. They point to their $15 masks on the wall. I say I am looking for a one-time use mask due to simply forgetting mine. Rather than offer a mask from their employee boxes of masks, they tell this pregnant woman that I can walk down 2 blocks in today's heat wave, into a mall that requires masks to enter (and that is my initial problem), to purchase one from the Dollarama underground. I walked out and went into the Second Cup near them and took one from the security post that has a box of free medical masks for visitors. To think that this library probably has books on "feminism" and the "dignity of women" makes me laugh. Even dogs get free water at the entrance of stores in Montreal.
E	Etain Ryan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love this bookstore! I stumbled upon it the last time I was in Montreal and it was my first destination when I arrived this time. They have a vast collection of books and lots of beautiful special editions that you don't find in other stores. The place is laid out very nicely and it is easy to find what you are looking for. They are a book nerd's dream and have lots of fun bibliophile goodies like badges, t-shirts, socks and mugs. I highly recommend a visit. The gentleman working when I was in was a bit rude but that was the only negative.
M	Marisa Gref on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Love the book selection in this store! Always end up buying more than I thought I would because something intriguing was on display.
