aerodynamik Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Where do you usually go to buy or rent books? Why that place particularly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I never rented a book before, I buy books online when I see the importance of such book(s). I love reading contents that are awe-inspiring full of ideas towards money making, managing finance, and building my future strong etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted October 8, 2022 Share Posted October 8, 2022 I haven't been to a library in decades. I do buy books however. Typically, I just buy fiction as that is where my interests lie. I do read a little bit of nonfiction, but that is usually only when it's in direct relation to some aspect of my life. But it seems that I tend to prefer writing the books instead of reading the books the majority of the time. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happenstance Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Unless it's comics then I'm mostly a Kindle reader these days so I tend to buy a lot of 99p offer books. Haven't really used a library since I was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I buy my books - whether physical or eBooks. I always stay at the library and use the book there - I hate renting books because I always want unrestricted access to information it contains.

Akun Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I've borrowed books from my local library before - and sometimes forgetting to return them on them - but I've never really heard of renting books, at least around Singapore. Buying books though, I've done that in the past, but they're mostly comics from a shop called "Kinokuniya" or Choose Your Own Adventure game books like Give Yourself Goosebumps. The CYOAs, I've bought them as a kid, but I remember about two or three years ago, my interest was rekindled and I ended up buying some CYOAs from overseas and had them shipped here. They were part of the classic "Choose Your Own Adventure" series published by Bantam Books. I got "Terror on Titanic" and "Hyperspace." But yeah, most of the time, I've bought my books from two stores in Singapore: the Popular bookstore and Kinokuniya. Kinokuniya is definitely the better choice though since they offer a wider variety of books, from comics to Japanese light novels to literature of any kind. Popular is more leaning towards the mainstream crowd and also sells stationary and assessment books for students. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
