Type Books

I love going downtown. When I’m there, I feel rejuvenated. On Friday I hit Queen St. West, and in particular…Type Books.

It’s killing me that I didn’t take the most important photo of all–of their sign. But I did capture their current window.

If you don’t think that pic does it justice, here’s a better shot, courtesy of Beckie DiLeo .

The awesome Kalpna Patel (@GhostfaceKnitta) designs their displays. After over a year of following each other on Twitter, I’m glad to have finally met her.

Although this was my first visit to Type, it won’t be my last. In an era of big-box bookstores, Type offers a refreshing alternative.
