About

Fireside Books has been Parksville's local independent bookstore since 1993, holding down a spot on the Island Highway in the heart of town. The shop is best known for its deep shelves of used books, which sit alongside new releases, giving readers the chance to hunt for out-of-print treasures and current bestsellers under one roof.

Beyond books, the store stocks puzzles, games, calendars, and gifts, making it a handy stop for browsers and gift-shoppers as well as dedicated readers. Its book dragon logo has become a familiar sight around the community, where the store is a regular supporter of local events like the Parksville beach festival.

Customers can shop in person seven days a week or browse and order through the store's website, which includes searchable inventory, BC bestseller lists, and local delivery options for the surrounding area.
