The Bookworm is a lovely, friendly little shop, great for getting recommendations and general browsing with a host of regulars to bump into. - Liz 07.04.11. Vast selection at excellent prices, the lady that runs the place is very friendly and really knows her stuff, well worth a visit. - Bobson 09.04.11.

I do not trade on the internet so you have to come to one of my shops to see what I have got. Minimum of 12 shelves fresh stock each week. Books bought, please telephone me on 01883 713277. I was really surprised to find such an airy shop in a lovely town. The good quality stock was well classified; it was easy to browse, and the manager was most pleasant. Very good Surrey and Kent holdings. A visit is recommended. - Chris Harte 29.06.09. Very rude service when I (ever so politely) suggested a notice in the shop was misleading to customers: ''I understand it and as it's my bookshop that's all that matters''. Poor manners and totally uncalled for lack of civility ... - Nigel 12.07.12. David is one of the best booksellers I know and he is never anything but helpful and charming. His shop always has lots of interesting things and he oversees it with rigour, ensuring that it has a good turn over and never becomes stagnant. I always find loads to buy and it is most unfortunate that the previous reviewer has not focused on the quality of the business. Good book shops can certainly do without touchy customers like this! - Nicholas Pendower 14.09.12. Found this shop by chance last autumn, a well stocked shop, in particular a good selection of old Penguins which I collect. All fairly priced, and shop owner was an extremely pleasant man. Will certainly visit again when in the area. - Rebecca 16.02.13.
