Bookshop

Picked up a gardening guide with a cookbook on the side, which is exactly what I wanted. I had a look at two other sellers first and this one came out cheapest once delivery was added. The book was in lovely condition. Nice to buy from a site that feels a bit more like a proper bookshop.

Needed something to read on the train to Manchester and the bookshop app was the quickest way to get one, I'd left it too late for the station shop. Downloaded the sample first, which helped me choose. The ebook was on my phone in a minute. Simple app, no fuss at all.

I ordered a children's atlas as a gift for my grandson, and I was pleased with the choice on offer. The atlas was well presented and arrived in good time for his birthday. The page edges were a little rough but the pictures were clear and bright. I found the ordering process straightforward and would be happy to use it again.

I compared it with a local shop and the price was a little higher than the high street, though the book was of good quality. My order arrived but one of the three titles was missing, and it took nearly a week to get a reply from customer service. The replacement came through eventually and was handled politely enough. I would have liked a quicker answer.

Bookshop is a good place to order books if you want to support independent shops, and that's why I picked it over the big sites. Signing up took about a minute and checkout was simple. The only thing I'd flag is that the hardback took a few extra days to arrive, but it was in good nick and the price was fair.

Ordered a paperback on the app while waiting for the kettle and it was on my doormat two days later. The tracking updates were clear enough, though one step said dispatched a day before it actually left. Pretty happy with it though, would use again for quick orders when I'm in a rush.

Ordered a graphic novel that I'd seen recommended online and the listing had a good preview of the pages. The book came in a sturdy box and the spine was undamaged, which I was a bit worried about. Took about four days to arrive. Checkout asked me to make an account, which I wasn't keen on, but it was quick enough.

Ordered a novel on my phone on the bus and it was the price I was hoping for. The checkout asked me to log in twice which was annoying. Delivery came a day later than the date shown, but it still got here before the weekend so no real complaint.

I compared it with the large online bookseller I usually use and was pleased to find the price here was rather better for the same paperback. The order was simple to place and I didn't have to create an account. The only small thing is that the confirmation email went to my junk folder, so I wasn't sure at first it had gone through.

I needed a large print novel for my sister, whose eyesight has been troubling her lately, and this site had a good selection. The order was simple to place and the book arrived in the post within a week. It was carefully wrapped and the print is exactly as described. I'm grateful to have found it so easily.

Good value for books, I think. The price on my three paperbacks came out lower than the high street shop by a fair margin. Delivery was on time and everything arrived in one parcel.

The service is sound and the staff who answered my query were courteous and clear. Placed an order for two volumes of poetry and they arrived in good order within the week. The prices are fair and the site is simple to navigate. I would think of it again.

Bought a cookbook with a bit of a discount on the listed price after I used a code from the newsletter. The book was delivered in a padded envelope, arrived clean and undamaged. I checked the other sites and this one was cheapest with postage included. Easy to find the price filter on the site and the order confirmation came straight away.

Needed a birthday present for my nephew who is obsessed with a particular series and I was running out of time. Found the whole set listed and it got to me on Thursday, just in time for his party on Friday. The packaging was a bit flimsy so one corner of the box was squashed, but the books themselves were fine. Would use again for sure.

I needed a textbook for a course that was starting the following week, and I'd left ordering until the last minute. The order arrived in two days, which saved me. Everything was well packed and undamaged. It felt good to know I'd bought from a site that supports independent shops.

Postage was fair and the book turned up when they said it would. Ordered a secondhand copy of a history book for a fraction of the new price. Nice to see the condition noted clearly on the listing.

Honestly this is a good place to buy books and I'd use it again. Placed an order for three novels for my mum and they arrived in two days. The site was easy to browse and I liked the bookshop recommendations on each page. Good value and good service.

I bought a large print edition of a crime novel for my mum, who has macular trouble and can't manage normal type anymore. I looked at a couple of other sites first and the choice here was far better. The print is nice and clear and the page layout suits her. Checkout was straightforward and the book came packed well. She's already asked for the next one in the series.

Compared it with the supermarket website and the price here was lower once you took delivery into account. I buy a lot of crime paperbacks so the saving adds up over the year. The order arrived in three days and all the books were in one box. Nothing to complain about on the price front, which is why it gets top marks from me.

Compared with the big online sellers this is a bit pricier for new hardbacks, though you're paying for the local shop. The delivery was quick and the book was in good nick.
