I love shopping for books. Recently went to the Iliad Bookshop in North Hollywood, CA. and spent a couple hours going through the paperback collection. Discovered some great paperbacks at reasonable prices: Gothic Romance, Black Fiction, Mystery, Naval Fiction and Literary Fiction. I found a great old Penguin Classics paperback edition of Thomas Mann's Magic Mountain and an excellent Quentin Crisp autobiography. I've been collecting the older, mid-century Penguin classics for years. I just really like the design and they read very well.
If you live in Los Angeles, you must visit the Iliad Bookshop. They are the best. Not to mention they have two of the coolest bookstore cats around - Zeus and Apollo!
