    Absolutely loved this place. The store is filled with books that will excite any person who believes in the left ideology. From academics to children's literature, a whole range of books are available here. If you have a membership that costs 100 Rs, you will get books for a discount of up to 30%. And plus the used books area is so cheaper. Also, they have a courier service costs just 69 rupees for any amount of books to any parts of the country. The atmosphere is so welcoming. The staffs are so helpful to find a book that you are searching for. One should definitely check out this place. ❤️

    Well, well, attention bookholics. This bookstore is a gem and you won't believe but I bought two second books just in rs 60 with free bookmarks. How cool is that? The books that I purchased were: five people you meet in heaven and life of pi. Idk, just go and shop. It's a gem.

    Nice collection of books, from Hindi and English literature and the books related to history, also Hindi and Urdu Poetry books. You can avail the yearly membership of this library for ₹100/ Per Year which makes you eligible for a 15% discount on each book available at the store. An important thing here to mention is that reaching this store is a bit hard as it is not in east to reach area like Patel Nagar, it is in a congested place named Ranjit Nagar. You have to search for it through various Galis.

  • 5/5 Shashank V. 4 years ago on Google
    If you adhere to the cause of Socialism and Communism, this is your place to be! This is even if you just want to learn about the world. Going there for the first time is such a beautiful feeling! They have so many books dedicated to the ideology. You'll find very famous names here. But what's best about this place is how it makes an effort to stock their shelves mostly by independent writers. The prices are very student friendly and they even keep second hand books. They ha e posters and other merch. Their bookmarks are amazingly pretty. These guys host regular events as well. Definitely go check them out!

    One of the best bookstores in Delhi. I have lost count of the times I have visited May Day Bookstore after coming to Delhi. I have found many rare books which I could not find anywhere. Also, the books come with a good discount most of the time and always with the May Day book club membership (which is a meagre Rs. 130 per annum). A must-visit place in Delhi.

    Just ok, leftist or rightist is not my cup of tea, I stay out of politics and this Library's ideology was not my cup of tea.

    This is not your run of the mill for-profit book shop. Every book stocked here is worth buying & reading.

    I went there to get academic books but they don't keep that sorts of books so it was a mistake from my side. There is a Lil coffee house inside where you can sit and have a chat. Not much big but definitely a place worth a visit.

  • 4/5 ADIL A. 1 year ago on Google
    Almost all of the books are based on left ideology. There are only some books that are of general literature. Not recommended for general readers such as myself. Only for those who have a taste in left politics. Yet i should say this place is well kept and u may find any book available there with the help the store keeper using his computer. You may also get used books which are well kept.

    Not a bookstore It's rather a leftist and anti Government Propaganda Centre

    I paid twice for a book I purchased because of a failed transaction. The amount was deducted, my bank statement said it was a successful transaction, upon calling the store, I was, however, again told the transaction failed.

    Amazing place for book lovers

    Was able to find old classics from Russian literature. Truly an amazing place to find new cool books and rediscover old favorites.
