So I've been looking forward to this book fair for the past couple of weeks. MPH rarely holds book fairs, and it claimed millions of books with irresistible discounts up to 50-90% off.
Which booklover wouldn't go nuts over it?
So I went with mom and bro to Putrajaya Internation Convention Centre,
First time using Waze to get there.
When we arrived, I was so excited! Books EVERYWHERE! A booklover's dream place to be, I must say. I started rummaging through the endless bookshelves of books looking for the rare yet cheap find.
Excuse the horrible quality of photos, my iPhone wasn't cooperating well in the large crowds.

| Endless shelves of books! |
The sea of people who swarmed PICC was shocking, but I think Big Bad Wolf had bigger crowds (not that I've ever been to one)
However, exciting as it was to see so many books in one place, I was very Disappointed in the prices. MPH boasts about books as low as RM5, but most of them were only 15-20% off! Books ranging from RM5-RM25 were very limited and so few. And books with 45% off only consisted of children books and cookbooks.
SIGH.
But after lots of digging and surveying the racks multiple times, I am quite pleased with my finds. Only costed me around RM150 for the 5 books.
Stationaries were an adorable addition to my collection hehe
Glad I did find some good finds and using mom's CIMB card we got additional 5% and rebate RM5 voucher for each RM50 spent. At least that was worth it ;)
Hope you enjoyed your weekend!
I'm off to finish off my impossibly high stack of books now.
