Drove over to the MPH Warehouse Clearance Sales at BU3 today.
It was located at the Civic Hall place in Bandar Utama 3, near nanny dew's house. Books as low as RM2! But of course those cost RM2 were mostly rubbish stuff. I did, however, purchase quite a few books that cost me... less than 10 bucks.
When i arrived i saw a number of aunties coming out of the hall holding large burgeoning plastic bags full of books (or maybe Barbie Dolls, and various family board game sets as they well on sale too).
Bustling with people. It was rather stuffy in the hall as there wasn't any air conditioning. Naturally i perspired like some crazy labour animal.
The "decent-enough-to-be-decently-arranged" books were, well, decently arranged in this picture. These includes the relatively new books like P.S. I love You, The Book Thief (which i wanted to buy but didn't) and some glossy self help books.
Those RM2-20 books were those cheaplak ones, unsorted and haphazardly chucked together onto shelves. This was where the bargain hunters were, filing through books feverishly trying to find a book that they might like. This was where i found this fun little book called "The Basketball Book" for 10 bucks (7, after they deducted a further 30% as i was a CIMB card holder!).
***
Books that i bought. 7 of them altogether. I chose three John Grisham books. I never actually read John Grisham but all of his books seemed to be #1 New York Times Bestsellers so i guess they can't be too bad. Also purchased were Memoirs of a Geisha and Wintersmith (by Terry Pratchett.. ennie's always gushing on and on about Prat... Chett. So... Let's see).
Now. I was delighted to find Act of Treason in the warehouse sales, perched on top of a decently arranged shelf shoved away in a secluded corner.
Latest addition to my collection of Vince Flynn Books. :) :)
