Independent Bookstores in Boston

Encouraging article in The Boston Globe today about some local, independent bookstores that are holding their own in the economic downturn. It's nice to see some good news about the publishing industry for a change. The main focus of the article is the Brookline Booksmith in Coolidge Corner. It's a great bookstore, and as an added bonus, there is a used bookstore in the basement. Also mentions Newtonville Books, another one of my favorites. Back Pages Books in Waltham is another one to check out. I definitely encourage anyone to support these local, independent bookstores.
