Hullo!

Can anybody suggest where to buy books here? Bookstores, I mean. I want to check it out and do some actual (forget Amazon, at the moment) book shopping.

Thanks a bunch! :)

(at) flexicode - Thanks. Just came from there and I bought a couple of books. :)

(at) Oryx - Will do.

(at) cabbage - Oh, I was also advised to check Virgin at Villaggio. I passed by it one time and did not go in because from the outside, I thought it was a music store with all those blaring (too loud) sounds. Later on, I discovered that it also holds a bookshop inside. Will check that out.

What is an Aramex?

(at) Mr M. - Been to I Spy but I only saw too many kiddie books.

It depends on what kind of books you want.

There is Virgin (Villagio & Landmark) - they sell books; seems to ME at the moment self help books but I only glance at the book side near the DVD's as the music there is too bloody loud! So of course they could have great selection.

Al Jarirr - old fashioned but good enough.

There is a book shop in City Centre - 2nd floor I think; can't remember the name sorry. According to friends they sell great books.

There is not a Waterstones here.

Do what I do - open an Aramex account and get them shipped in :-)
