Borders Berjaya Times Square, Kuala Lumpur

I dropped by the newly opened Borders bookstore in Berjaya Times Square today, and though it's not as big as Kinokuniya, MPH Midvalley, MPH 1 Utama or even Popular Ikano... it's still a pretty good bookstore. I'm in love.

I mean, what other bookstore provides comfy seats for you to seat your rumpus on while browsing through an unsealed book? Yes, that's right! The books--they're unsealed. Remember when Kinokuniya KLCC first opened and they didn't bother to seal their books either? Yeah? Remember how awesome it was to leaf through a RM200.00 book without having to go to the grumpy girl at the information counter?

Well, rejoice, for Borders is like that! But, unfortunately, knowing how our fellow Malaysians treat other people's property, I'm sure the books are not going to stay unsealed for long.

If you haven't been to Borders yet, you should. They've got this "buy-three-novels-for-the-price-of-two" promo thing going on. Also, you know a bookstore's good when you walk in and realise how amazing it is that the History section is crammed full of people. At least Borders was when I walked in this afternoon. Oh, and their selection of books are pretty wide... rivalling even that of Kinokuniya's.

So we'll see you there! If only they had free wireless internet in the Starbucks inside Borders, and I'd be there every night. Maybe soon.
