This is my literally most favourite book shop in London. I found it last year and have been back here every month or so.
The building is very very attractive, Gothic in nature
All kinds of nooks and crannies. 
With a copper sheath on the spire
Can you see the beautiful stonework? 
On the corner of the Malet Street. With these lovely circular areas where you can sit and read
Diya observing…
I was too small to reach up
And then I sat her down on one of these little alcoves where she read while I pottered in the rare and antiquarian shelves. 
I love this part of the bookshop. Hardly anybody comes to the second floor on the left hand side where the rare and antiquarian books reside. And as soon as you walk in, you can smell the beautiful aroma of old books, silverfish, dust and yellowing paper. There are books on literature, history, geography, psychology, and and and
this is the lot which I bought. Happy reading…
