Queer Book Store

I like this book store. They cater to the LGBT population and have a wide selection of queer books to choose from. It's a cute little shop on the second floor of an old Victorian home on the west side of Yonge St., just south of Wellesley St., packed floor to ceiling with gay content.

This was the first gay-oriented bookstore in Canada, and it remains one of the best. The shelves hold a sizable collection of gay and lesbian fiction, biography, and history books, and the offerings have expanded to include magazines, CDs, videos, calendars, posters, and cards.

It's hard enough for booksellers to survive the online world as it is, much less such an important store as Glad Day. Support your independent businesses!!!

The bookstore almost closed earlier this year, a fate averted... more

Glad Day is that bookstore upstairs on Yonge near Wellesley, with the pink neon sign. From the outside it has the air of a seedy porn palace, which considering the neighbourhood, one might expect.

It's actually a very cool little bookstore with all sorts of gay interest books, calenders and magazines. Their selection is extensive and comparable to the Toronto Women's Bookstore or This Ain't... more
