GeckoGretchen Posted December 21, 2016 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 I am looking for a store that sells books, mostly local content but in the long run ANYTHING... there used to be one in Buganvillia (SP???) plaza a few years ago, but have never come across any more since that one closed.

babyface Posted December 21, 2016 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 Try Diane Pearl Colecciones (corner of colon and ocampo) for books by local authors I think, and "local interest" subject matter. You may find something you like there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComputerGuy Posted December 21, 2016 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 Smokee's shop in Plaza Bugambilias usually also carries a lot of local authors. There is a magazine stand at the airport, that will carry a few current sellers in English. And I can put you in touch with local authors. www.ajijicbooks.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtnMama Posted December 21, 2016 Report Share Posted December 21, 2016 First a disclaimer - I got a kindle about a year and a half ago and haven't read a paper book since. Good places to get used books last time I looked: Anita's Animals booth at the Wednesday Market Casi Nuevo Thrift Shop, Carretera mountain side, Riberas del Pilar Ninos de Chapala, next door to Casi Nuevo Tepehua Treasures, Carretera #98 2 doors down from where Café Magaña used to be Upscale Resale near Maskaras Clinic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THANKS I`m assuming you know about the 25,000 volume lending library and the nearby used bookshop (approx. 1,000 books at 7 pesos each) at LCS. 500 pesos to join for a year. Sandy`s in Guad.
