"Paper Hound Bookshop, Downtown Yaletown by Becki Chan & Milos Begovic. As hand-held electronic devices take over the world, Vancouver thankfully clings onto a used book row. It is located on Pender Street, between Richards and Hamilton, and it is, interestingly enough, expanding. The charming Paper Hound Bookshop is the most recent addition. Its owners claim to carry "all the books that one would expect to find in a classic humanities library, and then a whole bunch of titles that no one is actually looking for". They organize this veritable treasure trove in such delightfully quirky categories as "Things Japanese", "Rodent as Hero", "Detection / Deduction", "Hot Adventure", "Cold Adventure" and "Wet Adventure". A particular type of adventure we love is browsing for books in a physical space. We would like to think that there are still many people around who feel the same, and will greatly appreciate the care put into curating this wonderful little shop."
