This isn't the biggest used book store in Calgary, but they had a few things I couldn't find anywhere else, and in great condition. I love ratty old books, but this place doesn't lean in that direction. They have a nice collection of travel, science, and nature books. There's a couple racks of vinyl records as well.

My kids love coming here, they bring their books to trade in for a little cash and quickly pick up a new one with the help of the owner. She is delightful and welcoming. The shelves are filled top to bottom with books so it can be overwhelming to find something on your own, but staff are always open to helping and will make a great effort to find the book you will enjoy!

[Written by my husband who is a serious collector of fine books]: "An ok bookstore with lots of cool stuff. Be careful trying to get stuff out of their "warehouse." They get your phone number, call you, tell you to come by to pick up the book and they sell it behind your back. Seen better customer service."

Cabin Fever is definitely my favourite used bookstore in Calgary. I first experienced this little gem over the fall, when I was looking for a copy of Michael Crummey's "Galore," and saw on abebooks that they had a copy! So happy I was brought in here.
I was greeted by a woman whom I assumed was the owner of the store. She was able to grab me my copy of "Galore" right away. When she asked if I... more

If somebody had asked me how many books it would be physically possible to fit into a space this size, I'm pretty sure my answer would be SIGNIFICANTLY lower than the stock at 'Cabin Fever'.

I've never experienced the condition that this place was named after (at least, that I know of) but even just in the time I was walking the isles in this little independent book store I did experience... more

A wonderful addition to our city!

If you're looking for that special find and haven't had much luck at other used book stores in the city, it's quite likely that Cabin Fever will not only have it in stock, but will have it available in better condition than you'd expect!

Carrying rare collectibles, special editions and books that you thought had fallen off the planet, Cabin Fever will ensure... more

If you're pacing the floors at your place and you're restless and bored out of your mind, you may have Cabin Fever.
Or not - I'm no doctor.
What I am is a dude who's been to his fair share of used book stores, and as far as they go, Cabin Fever Books is a good one. The barely used books that line their shelves are meticulously categorized and organized, which makes finding what you're looking... more

High quality books for serious book lovers and collectors alike. This shop is a real find for rare, classic, and educational books.

This is one of the more interesting book stores in Calgary in that it sells used collectable, out of print and hard to find books.

The store is simple but very well laid out, with well labelled shelves and tons of interesting finds. I always had a secret fantasy of living my life solely as a bibliophile but I don't have the expertise nor the know how to even know how to accomplish this; I am... more
