Frommer's Staff

This Sunset Strip landmark is L.A.’s best indie bookshop, with a thoughtfully curated selection of more than 60,000 titles, both mainstream and small-press. The Staff Picks are excellent, and the shop maintains a full schedule of signings and readings. Topics range from show business to political screeds to trashy novels to high-minded literature, and it has an extensive old-fashioned news stand.
