Hooked on Books is a locally owned and operated bookstore that was founded in December, 2009 by Judy and Marcel Zubriski.
We have over 7,000 titles to choose from but if you still can't find what you're looking for then we can place a special order at no extra charge. We also carry many other items other than books such as CD’s, reader glasses, funky readers, greeting cards, tarot cards, puzzles & games. We look forward to your visit!
Why shop Indie?*
When you shop at an independently owned business, your entire community benefits:
The Economy
- Spend $100 at a local retailer and $68 of that stays in your community. Spend the same $100 at a national chain, and your community only sees $43.
- Local businesses create higher-paying jobs for our neighbours.
- More of your taxes are reinvested in your community--where they belong.
The Environment
- Buying local means less packaging, less transportation, and a smaller carbon footprint.
- Shopping in a local business district means less infrastructure, less maintenance, and more money to beautify your community.
The Community
- Local retailers are your friends and neighbours--support them and they'll support you.
- Local businesses donate to charities at more than twice the rate of national chains
- More independents mean more choice, more diversity, and a truly unique community
