Lovely second hand bookstore, wide variety of books which are very cheap and kind staff
What a joy to find this wee secondhand bookshop We Are Books here in central Christchurch. So good in fact I've become a volunteer and spend 3 hours a week enjoying it. Great selection of books and in such good condition .. plus the money goes back into the WEA (Workers Education Association) which has been going for many years.
Excellent bookshop.Very good range of high quality books, both fiction and non fiction. Good selection of children's books. Definitely worth a visit
I was delighted to have stumbled upon this gem. I was traveling through Christchurch looking for a vacation read and fell in love with this bookshop, that I went back 3 times during my time in NZ. Staff are generally volunteers and I really appreciated the friendly welcome. Small but mighty.
A lovely little local bookstore run by a nonprofit and volunteers.
