Bookstores worth the walk

I'm an engineer, not a critic, so take the ratings with a grain of salt. These are the shops I actually go back to, mostly within walking or one-bus distance of the Bernal hill. No rankings, no stars, just the places that haven't let me down yet. The flea market gets the Sundays, these get the rest of the weekend.
