What a great range of books! The owner was engaging and kind. Definitely put it on your list if you are a book lover.

While on holiday in Tasmania, I attended in person and found some stunning books!! Emailed them after I got home in South Australia and was able to easily buy online and have them shipped directly to me!! So happy and the books are in great condition!!

a ‘hidden gem’ by my definition, and more than just a bookstore. the cozy vibes are off the charts, there’s amazing-looking rooms you can book for your group/small event, and mr. wools-cobb (who runs the place) is a wonderful conversationalist with the coolest job: finding rare, lost books for you. i will be certain to come here for all my book needs!

I wasn’t specifically looking for Quixotic Books, but I chanced upon it and was pleasantly surprised. The books here are unique, and you can’t find much of its variety elsewhere. The design of the place is cozy and inviting, allowing you to sit and read some books before deciding to buy. There is a great selection of books ranging from fiction to space and literature, catering to a wide array of interests. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, adding to the positive experience. I ended up spending a lot of time and money here, thoroughly enjoying the unique finds and the welcoming atmosphere. Quixotic Books is definitely a gem for any book lover. Highly recommend.

What a unique and cosy bookstore! We walked in randomly and were pleasantly surprised by the collections of books here. Recommend to drop by if you are around the corner, you might find some rare books that you like, just as we did.
