A Teaser

What do you think of when you step into a book store? Or not even a book store, but a library, or your own reading nook at home? What are the things you think of, images you see, and emotions you feel? 


For the most part, I’m excited by the possibilities of all the stories suddenly surrounding me. What new worlds a few words create by simply being written!


What do you imagine when you step into a book store?

What's on Sale?

I was able to take a peek into what Fully Booked is putting on sale in their Fort branch this week! I love book sales. I love the random books I find in them that always, for some reason, come in handy for future use. Whether I pick up a travel book that I use for a future trip, or a popular classics title that takes me weeks to finish, I always feel like I get more than my money's worth!

 Some travel books are on sale for P50! Though they're not updated, I'm sure some tourist spots will always remain a must-see in big cities like London, Boston and New York.

 Another long table of P50 books! 

 Hardbound copies go for P100 only! 
That's almost just 10% of what I would usually spend on a nice, hardbound book. 

 This table got me really excited! Cookbooks and some design books for 60%-90% off!!

 Calendars are going for 90% off as well. I feel like buying them all and making a huge collage! I spotted an Edward Hopper 2010 one... Might just get it so I can imagine I own one of his paintings!!

The Fully Booked sale in the Fort branch is for Discount Card holders only from today until tomorrow. It will be open to the public on Thursday and runs until next week! See you at the Forum! :-)

Rainy Day Reads










We were so overwhelmed by the response generated when we asked for what rainy day reads everyone was curling up with the other day! From the epic sword fighting in Game of Thrones, to the young adult drama in Thirteen Reasons Why, to the intellect of Sherlock Holmes and the supernatural romance in, well, a LOT of children's titles, stories in any form or genre, are always a good companion for comfort. I had to share this with everyone; the list is so diverse!

What is your favorite from these titles? What have you read already? :-) Definitely looking forward to the next batch of suggested reads to call out, soon. :-)

Take care, and stay safe everyone! :-)
