General bookshops Alpes

Reading is essential, everywhere, all the time. Books not found elsewhere to open our horizons and free our imagination. In a bookshop not quite like the others, and which has the good idea to reserve parking spaces for us, the adventure begins with a beautiful meeting. A great bookseller who advises us with passion and greed. Pleasure, even when you come to get your school books and leave with a novel or a comic book. Selection made with passion, poetry and emotion. Contagious good mood around the passion of the book.

Reading is essential. And to face a real anguishing and depressing reality, the Imaginary Bookstore is more than ever necessary. On all fronts for more than a quarter of a century, Catherine and her books have been taking us to parallel universes where we must let ourselves be guided and transported. From the walls covered with books to the ceiling for a bookshop specialized in French and foreign literature. From the last Goncourt prize to the travel guide to the specialized book, everyone will find what he or she is looking for. Hats off to the gift packages. L'Imaginaire is at the helm of a bookshop that offers us something more than just books: another life.

Culture within everyone's reach. In the heart of the Courier shopping center, Fnac caters to all audiences through a number of universes, starting with books and stationery. A wide choice of books for all tastes, in all styles (literature, children's books, comics, practical books, etc.), vinyl records which are back in force on the shelves, but also multimedia products (cameras, cameras, computers, gaming, televisions, hi-fi equipment, etc.) and even small household appliances (robots, coffee makers, etc.) Ticketing to attend all the events in the region and in France. Temple of culture, Fnac is renewing itself to offer even more choices.

Would you like to visit Landru? No problem. The Jean Landru bookstore of rue Joseph-Vallot, facing the brewery l'M, offers a wide range of novels of all kinds, political tests and mountain books: Herzog, Rebuffat, Audibert, Frisian-Roche await you a firm spike. Books on mountaineering, hiking and trekking, BD, topographic maps, atlases, tales and legends or photos… Livres also, with portfolio trips across the mountains of Europe and elsewhere. Because we can be passionate about altitude and cosmopolitan, as long as: the sacred mountains of the Himalayas or the highlands of the Andes have their place on the Étagères shelves as well as the 4000 of the Alps. It is noted that in 2009 the bookshop obtained the label of independent bookstores (ITA) of the Ministry of Culture. It would ultimately be a crime not to stop there. 

Librairie des Bauges, present in Albertville since 1953, occupies a central position in the life of the community. In 2018, it underwent a major transformation, including a complete renovation with expansion and beautification. The independent and dynamic bookshop is determined to fulfill all the essential missions of a bookshop, offering a vast selection ranging from the latest novelties to timeless classics.
