Wee Book Inn is an iconic used bookstore with gem-like finds, knowledgeable staff, warm conversations, and resident cat Bossy. Shelves packed with finds that inspire and ignite imagination. Great for browsing, discovering, and trading in well-loved books. For a fuller picture — On Jasper Avenue in downtown Edmonton, Wee Book Inn is a classic filled with personality, stories, and shelves packed with finds that inspire and ignite imagination. Inspiration turns up easily here—in the aisles, in thoughtfully curated books, and in warm conversations with staff who clearly love what they do. The team is genuinely knowledgeable and happy to recommend or help you track down something unexpected. Bossy, the iconic in-store cat, adds an extra layer of charm and reinforces the calm, human pace of the place. Consider bringing in already-read, well-loved books—what’s gathering dust at home may be something they can purchase, repurpose, or offer as in-store credit.

I have always loved this used bookstore. I have been a denizen of the original on Whyte Ave., but the Jasper Ave. location is great too. Tremendous selection, wonderful staff, and the best store cats. I still remember the original, Rags. If you love books, it's a place not to be missed while in Edmonton.

Weebook Inn is one of my favorite places in Edmonton. I’ve been to both the Whyte Ave and Jasper Ave locations, and I honestly love them both. The stores are cozy, full of charm, and always fun to explore. You never know what hidden gem you’ll find on the shelves. The Whyte Ave location even has a beautiful cat that you might see wandering around. I think their logo and book card holders are based on that cat, which makes it feel even more personal and unique. As an avid reader, I really appreciate their prices. Books are usually expensive, but here they’re affordable, and it’s great to see used books being kept alive. If they don’t have a book you’re looking for, you can ask them to find it, and they’ll let you know when it comes in. The staff are friendly and know a lot about books. You can ask for help, recommendations, or just chat about what you’re interested in. The atmosphere is peaceful and nostalgic so no rush, no pressure. It’s a great place to just spend time and enjoy. They also answer the phone if you need to call, which is helpful. Overall, Weebook Inn is a lovely, welcoming bookstore, and I always have a great experience there.

I went there on a rainy evening so it was nice and quiet. Such a nice environment. I also got to donate two books and they gave me some store credit which was cool. A successful little book thrift. Great prices.

A nice addition to downtown, this used bookstore has many different genres from westerns, romance, and fiction, to manga, comic books, and graphic novels. I would definitely recommend this place if you are Downtown Edmonton and wanted somewhere to walk around and browse. The prices are very affordable, and reasonable. On the one long wall, the shelves are designed so that you need to sift through the books to view all the titles, which is a bit of a poor design, but in the end works out as you end up reading a lot more titles that way because you can not skim the walls as quickly. It was a very chill environment, and I ended up getting a book myself. The cat on their logo is the cutest thing I have seen today. Great used book store!
