Boston Book Annex is our used book store at 906 Beacon Street, Boston, near the Brookline town line, not far from Fenway Park and Kenmore Square. The store has been at this location since 1980, gradually expanding to occupy two adjoining sides of the ground floor of a brownstone. The Book Annex has approximately 100,000 volumes in stock in all categories. We are particularly strong in Political History, Literature and Art. Buying collections large and small as we do, though, almost any book can appear on our shelves!

great selection, great prices...if they'd only move the cats out of the Irish History section because they are hogging all the good titles

Boston Book Annex has secondhand books that people really want to read for as little as $.33 each! The staff people are very nice and I love the cats!

It's all about ambiance. This store has a great feel to it. Its location doesn't hurt either.

Boston Book Annex is the best because it gets things done. I went into the store looking for a book, they didn't have but in three days when I returned they had specially purchased it for me.

I don't know what I would do without the BBA! It's a perfect place if you want to go and take your time browsing. It's well organized and easily accessed. Be sure to check out their bargain room! They consistently charge less than most used bookstores. Support this small, but excellent business! Not a good place to sell your books, but it's perfect for buying.
