This is by far the most spacious, coffee shop feeling type of the bookstores I've ever seen. Free wi-fi, chairs to sit and read books or to check your emails (better have a book in hand, too).

This is a great bookstore placed at the most important Sao Paulo avenue. You can find here almost everything you want!

It has a large english Books section, and a great (though almost always packed) coffee place. Having spent 6 months in Sao Paolo, I spent a lot of time there stocking up my library.

It's a huge and beautiful book store with a great coffee place! It's right at paulista avenue! Easy to find and it's worth it!
