Time To Rejoice, Bibliophiles: Get Books From INR 99 At L'amour

L’amour is a bookshop and library in Powai where you can get your hands on paperbacks both old and new, at reasonable prices.

L’amour was first a lending library on wheels started by Muntoo, where he drove this van full of books from Powai to Andheri 15 years ago. Now in a more permanent space, L’amour works as a library and book store from its corner inside the massive Hiranandani Complex as part of the enclosed Heera Panna mall (the Powai edition.)

In this two-floored shop, you will find very good quality secondhand copies of fiction, non-fiction, children’s books and a little share of comic and graphic novels as well. The books are neatly categorized by authors, and copies start at INR 99 and go up to about INR 200-300, depending on the book. Got any extra books? Sell them to this library. You should definitely drop by and pick up a paperback or two.

If you don’t want to buy a copy, you can become a member of their lending library and pick up a book a day.
