The drum and bass soundtrack doesn't make the store an attractive place to hole up with a paperback, but its a good place to buy one! This book/cd shop-meets-quirky-gift store also has an excellent selection of high-quality  Italian, Japanese, German and French notebooks, stationary, art and writing utensils. There is also a large selection of English-language books and monthly magazines. What's more, you can listen to cds on headphones upstairs and then hop along to their bright pink cafe for a wee bite.
