Take Cover Books

I thoroughly enjoy this bookstore. When you walk in you are immediately greeted by a kind face and you are so excited to find a hidden treasure amongst the bookshelves. I had a lovely and thought provoking conversation with the owners yesterday. I am so excited to read my new book. What an amazing edition to the East City neighbourhood!

Just wow. Amazing selection and curation, and such a great atmosphere. These folks are doing some really fabulous stuff and I’m so grateful to be able to buy my books locally!

Great selection, great staff, love that they offer digital and physical gift cards, and that they can order in anything that's not available in store.

Quaint, clean, well lit. Knowledgable, and helpful staff and easy to place orders with.

This is a first-rate bookstore with an emphasis on the unusual and the literary. Great staff, great and thoughtful selection.

Went to an event there. So pleased to have an independent bookseller in the neighbourhood.

It’s great to have an indie store back in Peterborough. Great selection and they will order in whatever you want. Important to note- entrance is not wheelchair accessible.

The new store front space is bright and well organized, with a thoughtfully curated selection of books. Owner, employees, and even other customers were very friendly!

Owners were so welcoming and the selection was great. Exceptional indie bookstore!

What can I say? I started Christmas shopping for my bosses in…you know, October. Rapid response regarding a book I wanted but didn’t see on the website allowed me to order what I needed from a small business I feel I can confidently stand behind. I’ve actually used their social media feed as part of my classroom instruction, and I feel I learn something or discover something new every time I scroll through the posts. The level of customer service, and the infectious enthusiasm for both books and literary are all a bibliophile could ask for. Highly, highly recommend Take Cover for all things book-related.

Amazing selection and passionate descriptions of each book on their very easy to use website! Delivery is always super prompt. A wonderful asset to the book community! 📖📚

Great selection and so happy there is a bookstore in Peterborough I can actually find books I like.

Fabulous local spot. Interestingly curated. Lovely.

Great selection and space! The only place I shop for books!

It's really cozy and has wonderful service!

Wonderful selection and quick delivery. Thank you!
