borders bookstore in malaysia!
exciting stuff if you're a book freak like me - borders bookstore is opening up in Times Square on the 19th of April. occupying 60 000 square feet, they are to be the biggest bookstore in malaysia.

i, for one, hope that they cater to niche topics and have more non-mainstream books (mph if you notice, no matter hooooowwwww big their stores are, always dedicate their shelves to mainstream stuff). i also hope that they have membership card thingies for book discounts (like Times Bookstore. this is what kino lacks.) extra points for them if they have searchable online databases that reflect their stock accurately.

Went to BORDERS yesterday, memang best.. banyak sangat buku, spacious. The 1st floor mainly fiction (sectionalised by horror, science fiction, romance, poems, drama, etc). 2nd floor more on reference book and kids section. Buku-buku historicals yang mmg tak ada kat MPH memang banyak kat sini. In terms of books I cannot decide which I like better, kino or Borders. BUT one main difference that I noticed is that the price of books are generally quite expensive as compared to kino or mph. I think may be because they priced the book based on the price tag on the book and just calculate the price in RM based on
the exchange rate. Yang menarik about Borders is that most books tak de plastic covered, so boleh baca semua, also lots of sofa & benches around.
