I second the recommendation for the Carnavalet bookshop. I cannot go in there anymore or I will walk out broke--they specialize in all the nooks and crannies of Parisian history that make me foam at the mouth with glee. And it's Carnavalet that did the "Paris in the time of Victor Hugo" exhibit. They know their shit, you can probably get book recommendations there, and I wouldn't be surprised if you ended up talking to somebody who could tell you places to go.
