If you are looking to buy bios and sport books,yeah get a kindle, all Science/Sports/Bio and educational books are very expensive, so a kindle might save you some money.

Thanks

I was thinking of just having a wonder around and probably sport/bio books but as nomerci rightly pointed out, it might be time to go onto a kindle but like the browsing thing in a shop.

Thanks for the replies.

Both QAWS and QVC have second hand books for sale at a very good price - all money to help animals.

Also look out for table top sales and take a big bag.

Or come to my house and borrow some!

If you like books, I recommend to get a Kindle. Not much to find here...and the prices are high.

I've found most of the new books over here..

There's also ISpy book shop at City Centre, but less variety of titles.

I have heard about the Virgin Megastore as well, but to be honest I don't know the location.

Hope it helps!
