Oh, I didn't know that! Family Bookshop is a great chain of stores in the ME. I loved them in Oman.

Virgin Megastore doesn't have Variety at all...... When it comes to Books at Virgin, its Crap...

SS, well, they are mysteries and romance novels and popular fiction and some classics. There really are hundreds to choose from so it's hard to say.

May I know what are the book titles available at these places? As in, are they mainstream books?

There are no bookstores and no libraries. The only remedy is a Kindle or a book swap. The Tuesday Ladies Group and the Church of the Epiphany have book swaps where for 5 QR you can choose from a lot of paperbacks.

Jarir Bookstore.. they have better titles range...

I don;t think there is a public circulating library here (though really wishing there was one!)

Best bet is to find people who read books here and you can probably exchange amongst each other...
