Best Bookstore
Quade Books
Look, Books & Books may be every Miamian’s favorite bookstore, but no establishment can win this honor every year. And thankfully, they’ve got a competitor this time around. Set in one of the most unlikely locations for a bookshop — Aventura Mall next to Anthropologie — this Miami outpost of an Argentinian independent bookstore chain offers beautiful new volumes in English and Spanish. Quade Books‘ selection features everything you could want from a bookstore, including the latest fiction and nonfiction, design and art books, an extensive children’s section, and helpful and kind bilingual staff. It’s precisely what a splashy mall overstuffed with LV, Prada, and other and other pricey brands needs: a little literacy to balance out the luxury.
