Hi,
I am pretty sure someone will have started this before, but I can't find it >.<
Where would I find second hand (cheap) book shops stocking English books?
I live near charlottenburg. I know there are ones around but I have lost the addresses x(
Thanks =)

Hi Jessi - it is worth to venture out of charlottenburg for "Your Piece of Britain" in Neukölln, Lahnstr 29, 120555
Like the links tell you, the best ones are St George's in Prenzlauer Berg, Another Country in Kreuzberg, East of Eden in Friedrichshein
There is 'Books in Berlin' on Goethestraße 69 in Charlottenburg: http://www.booksinberlin.de/
address correction Lahnstr.85 030 56977808 U7 Neukölln
Britain in Neukölln
or Another Country Riemannstr 7 U7 Gneisenaustr.

of the ones mentioned above i've been to:
another country: has a nice library/bookshop system that allows you to rent most of the books for 1.5e and a solid selection, also i think is the only one that works on sundays
books in berlin: i didn't really find what i was looking for, but this one is probably closest to you, since it's in charlottenburg
st george's: by far the best one; excellent selection, it offers both second hand and new books and most of the books are cheap - i bought a used copy of camus' stranger (which i couldn't find anywhere else) for 6e and new copy of franny and zooey for 5e
so basically you can just skip all the others and go straight to st. george's, it's only a few m2 stations away from alexanderplatz
of the bookshops that sell only new books, i think that dussmann in friedrichstrasse the biggest selection. also, worth looking into are hugendubel (there's a big one on kudamm) and thalia (there's one in alexa). the prices in these are more or less the same, but sometimes you can also find some cheap deals (eg. penguin classics are 2.3e in hugendubel)
