Small World Books


Intimate realm for booklovers

Tucked away just off the beaten path of the Venice Beach boardwalk lies this charming and peaceful haven for booklovers. With its entrance that opens into a corner of the Sidewalk Café's patio area, you might almost miss it if it weren't for a demure wooden sign pointing the way. Once inside, you have entered another world - a serious book lover's realm, that is cool and quiet and larger than it seems from the front. The Mystery Annex is a spacious alcove of books specializing in the mystery and suspense genre, from Vampire Fiction to Spy Novels. You can browse through employee picks and bestsellers, many adorned with a handwritten note extolling the merits found inside. In an era of commercialized mega-booksellers, a local shop like this is a comforting and refreshing treat.
