Ok, here you can jot down all the book you bought recently either new or second hand or from the flea market and why you decided to go for a particular book.

Had gone to the Strand Book Sale yesterday - this one is like a religion - a must visit event - fabulous discounts and good books - picked up 7 books in all - which included an Alice Walker, Umberto Eco, Asne Seierstad, Charles Dickens amongst all.

I live in indore and there is a place called khajoori bazaar..especially known for bookshops...but they nly sell study material...bt on sundays there is spcl market fr second hand books....like "haat" in villages,ppl sell books on road itself.....like there is fashion street for clothes outside VT, this one is for books jst tht its nt tht big....

well Kadamb, i also look for book stores in places where i visit and you will be surprised that you good some good and rare books in small towns. I remember few years ago, i had gone on a temple pilgrimage to south Karnataka and visited Udipi, where i purchased some books which you cannot find in Bombay and lots of archie/ tintin comics which my daughter wanted to read.

I decided to buy a book via Ebay Charity, as it is a deed for those who need it and a deed to my brain, to gain more knowledge, I am huge fan of Bombay/Mumbai, found out about Maximum City: Bombay Lost And Found by Suketu Mehta. I was worried that the condition would be very rough, amazed at how the high quality book was! I suggest everyone to try Ebay Charity once, as I live in UK we do not get many Indian author based books.
