Unabridged Books

This little tucked- away bookstore is one of my favorite places. I've spent hours inside. great for finding rare classics as well as new fiction & non-fiction. Plus, it's just so damn charming!

Almost any book you could want, they have, whether new or old. The employees are awesomely helpful. One of the best bookstores I've been to

Very welcoming - and well-stocked! Totally mesmerized by all of the choices, great current titles and classics. Love the staff reviews posted on bookshelves, nice personal touch. Yay bookmarks too :).

The moment you step in, you're surrounded by shelves upon shelves of literary treasures. The staff are knowledgeable and always willing to offer recommendations.

My favourite bookstore for over twenty years. Great selection of classics and a big bargains section. Support your local bookstore !

The sale section has books you actually want to read at good prices. Staff recommendations are up for a lot of books , and they're actually readers. I always walk out with something!

For more than 35 years, Unabridged Bookstore has been Chicago's leading source for LGBT literature. Read more

An independent neighborhood bookstore , Unabridged Bookstore is known for its specialization in gay and lesbian titles, but carries something for the book lover in anyone

Unabridged Books is a gem! Their selection is vast, staff is knowledgeable , and the atmosphere is cozy . A must-visit for book lovers! ????????

I've always thought that Barnes & Noble was a bookstore for people who don't read. Unabridged is the antidote. I agree with the comment about the bookmarks . I wish I still lived around the corner!

One of the truly great American bookstores . Leave yourself plenty of time to get lost in their recommendations and sale section .

Great books for kids. Inventive. Unusual. Intelligent. Staff is helpful without being obsequious.

Check out the great travel section downstairs !

Best bookstore in the city . Be sure to browse based on staff recos!

Love this store! Just wish they had more places to sit and enjoy!!

I do agree that they're probably the best book store in Chicago.

Go downstairs and be amazed by the travel section. Fantastic local store.

Cashier said yeh sure when I asked for the check in discount , but really meant not on your life, as I discovered when I got home and looked at my receipt,

Great selection of young adult books with recommendations by staff !

A perfect local bookstore . Like the kind you see in the movies .

Get bitten by the wanderlust bug in the oversized travel section. You'll leave with study abroad plans for every semester of college.

Wonderful selection with a great staff !

great local bookstore in a really fun and hip (I hate that word) area.

Great thoughtful selection - especially the non-fiction.

I love this place. Amazing travel section downstairs .
