West Side Books Annex

A Perfect Place to poke among tons of books

Posted byMaureen S.on 2/20/2006

Beware--this shop can become addictive! It is crammed to the rafters with used books of every sort. I can easily forget time as I poke through all their offerings, but that is okay, for you will never be rushed by their staff. Their variety is impressive--these are not simply old tattered copies of paperback books. Some of these books are really OLD. All of them are fascinating. Their art books are especially so.They have so many original copies of books that I read as a kid that I felt like I was back in my parent's basement. Little Women, Nancy Drew, the Bobbsey Twins. It's a nostalgic trip for sure and a great place to bring your kids to get them invested in reading. There's a great section on Denver and Colorado history as well. Their staff is wonderful and quick to offer help if you need it--just as quick to leave you be if you prefer it!
