      Hi melodyXOXO,


      They have a booklist, you can ask them for it. They bring in books that are not commonly found - books like Conspiracy 365 - a book where a young boy has to hunt down his father’s killers before they hunt him down.

      They also bring in Gone - everyone above the age of 14 disappears one day and the children and teens have to figure out and also how to survive, that book is really interesting.

      They have quite a wide range. You can also go down to their shop to browse the books. I am not too sure of address, as they normally come to my school to sell the books. I can find out and pm you.

        Hi hquek,


        Haha, don't worry, for me its my first fair but eagerly awaiting it - even if it fails to deliver, it will be exciting to see so many cheap books at one place - am salivating at the thought haha I am a book addict.

        Will definitely want a post-mortem :ugogirl:

                Hi pokemon,


                Can I know more about the bookstore you mentioned that sold hard to find books at Thomson plaza, what are some of their titles?:) Also for the second hand bookstore at Thomson, is their head office at Bras basah also selling books? or is the Thomson one the only branch? 🙂

                Actually the 'stores' i mentioned are not a real shops but aka makeshift stores at the open space on the grdfloor of thomson plaza. They are only there for a short period of time but will often make a comeback. According to the person incharge, she told me their office is at bras basah, also selling books. Last sunday was their last day, they often move around to other malls. They really have alot of titles on sale, i think books for all ages 😉 plenty of cooking books, dan brown books, sydney sheldon, bible stories, children non-fiction information hardcover books....aiyah v wide range i cant possibly list all. :frustrated:

                Oh, so they are not there now? 😞

                Was thinking of making a trip there. Can you update when u see them there again? :thankyou:

                      One last drift…The last MPH, there were a crowd of pp waiting anxiously for the staff to unload new books. This time round, if I see other mummies/daddies 虎视眈眈. I will be guessing they’re from KSP.
