Second hand bookshop on Columbia Road.
June 02, 2008
I asked the guy that runs this place what it was called and he said 'uh well we don't really have a name, we're just a bookshop' which I thought was awesome seeing as the only sign for the shop is a piece of paper taped to the stairs.
Its spread out over 2 rooms and the selection was awesome - its pretty much all second hand. They had loads of fiction and classics but also loads of old Penguin 1st editions or 1st prints which looks really good.
Turns out they're only open on Sundays like loads of the places on Columbia Rd which I guess is a shame but will make it all the more special when you actually get to go there.
