I like this little used bookstore.  Also known as Adam's Books.  Off 5th Ave in Park Slope just up from Melt.  Small but full of goodies.  Always end up leaving with something (a first edition Kurt Vonnegut, whatever they just made a movie out of, Phaidon book on modernism...).  

The bearded and bespectacled Adam (at least I assume this is Adam) is a soft-spoken character who hides behind the cash register and a few precarious walls of books.  Seems to have good and interesting taste in music (first time I went in he was playing a collection of spirituals from the library of congress).  Prices are reasonable enough.  Bargain cart outside.
