15 memorable on-screen indie bookstores

From Harry Potter’s teetering bookshelves to Gone Girl’s scintillating stacks, we love us some on-screen (and off-screen) indie bookstores.

PubFight 2014: A post mortem

Before the PubFight season began, we compiled a list of titles that went for top dollar at the Fakefurt auction. After the auction, we asked you to vote on which nominated title would sell the most copies during the PubFight season (September 2014 - January 2015).

Now, after many intense weeks filled with trials and triumphs, regrets and “out of stock” induced tears, the results are in and it’s time to see how well you know the Canadian book market.
