It was bought out by Waterstones a few years ago, and to be honest it feels much more like another chain store these days in terms of selection. I used to enjoy the fact that I'd often find books that were sometimes hard to get, but the variety seemed somewhat diminished the last time I visited. Still a good bookshop to visit, but I think it's lost some of its previous uniqueness.

I actually think it has worse variety than a comparable Waterstones - for whatever reason they stock extremely large quantities, rather than a large variety.
