economics reading list
I'm an avid reader and collector of books. In fact I've already amassed a huge number of books in my library. Reading is a favorite pastime of mine, and I always make it a point to visit a bookshop at least every other week. It feels good just browsing around new books.
I consider it a good experience when the bookshop not only sells the books I want, but the experience of buying the books is excellent. I've been very privileged in working here in Singapore, where I can have access to most of the books I could ever want. For all the booklovers out there, let me help you on your quest to find the perfect bookstore for you. I highly recommend the following bookshops to add in your favorite haunts and places to kill time:
• Borders
Borders is located in Wheelock Place (Orchard Road). This is their main branch. The other branch is located in Parkway Parade. The thing that I love about the Borders main branch is its location. It's absolute surrounded by chic coffee shops. You can immediately find a place to sit down in own of the vacant tables as soon as you bought the book. Or If you suddenly get inspired in the middle of walking in Orchard Road, you can immediately run to Borders and buy a pen and a notebook, dash to the coffee shop and scribble that piece of poetry that pops in your head. Service is fairly good. The staffs are very helpful in assisting you with what you need. Although I am a bit disappointed that they didn't offer to order for me a book that they don't have in stock.
• Books Kinokuniya
When it comes to an amazing collection of manga, graphic novels, English, Chinese or Japanese magazines, no one can beat Books Kinokuniya. No other bookstore in Singapore can rival its collection. Kinokuniya's main branch is located in Ngee Ann City Takashimaya Shopping Centre (Orchard Road). They also have a couple of branches in Bugis Junction and Liang Court. But if you want a large collection to choose from, better head to the main branch. If you cannot find a book, you have the option of either approaching the customer service desk or go to its book finder machine. You can type the book information on it, and the machine will show you the books currently available on the topic you are looking for. The machine will even print a map for you on a piece of paper. These machines can be found all throughout the store. Staff members are pretty helpful, and will assist you with your needs.
• Page One
Page One is located in Harbourfront Walk, Vivo City. Great place to browse books and read. The store is dotted with a few choice seats with a great view. But you can also sit on the floor in the quiet corners which can be found all over the store. Page One has a good collection of coffee table books and reference books, including Chinese language books. Manga and graphic collection is a bit dismal. But the children's and young adults book section is wide range because the store devoted a large area for it. They also included a small play area for children to read books.
• San Bookshop
If you are on a tight budget but still like to read books. San Bookshop might be the one suitable for your needs. They have several branches within Singapore. But the branches I always frequent are the ones located in Vivo City and Tanjong Pagar Road. Most of the books sold here are either brand new or second hand. They are very cheap. Plus the options of returning the book after you finish reading it is great because you get a partial refund for the money you paid for it. You can buy the books and return it to any branch. If you like the book so much, by all means, keep it and don't return it. Don't lose that receipt though, because you will need that for the partial refund.
