20% discount at Bookcafe.com.my
If you have any PTS books you intend to buy, now is a good time to do it online, via www.bookcafe.com.my because they are having a moving-warehouse sales. The usual discount is 12%, but now until 14 January it's 20%. From my past experience, the 12% discount was just enough to cover the shipping cost, which is good enough for me. I'm just glad I didn't have to scour bookshops only to find the titles I was looking for not available. So, this additional 8% is net savings. 20% is the discount PTS gave during the KL International Book Fair. My transactions with Bookcafe have been smooth, the only thing I have to complain about is the search system. I thought I had put in the exact keywords enough, and then still 160 titles sprang up somehow.

betul tu, betul. kalau cari buku, macam2 keluar. tu yang susah nak view tu. anyway, am trying my best not to spend on books sekarang ni (tak tahu boleh bertahan ke tidak :p)
ummu auni,
kalau tak spend langsung susah jugak tu hehe.. cuba buat plan and set a budget.. maknanya adalah buku2 yg kena 'beratur' sebelum dibeli ;p
I HAVE A PILE OF NEW BOOKS, BOUGHT LAST YEAR. TAK SEMPAT BACA LAGI LO!
mynie,
help me with my list, please? u hv a very wise selection on books;)
tq in advance:)
suraiya,
sama lah, i also have loads of books bought last year tp belum sempat baca. but part of your job would be to read, i presume. mesti best, kan? i wish i can read to earn my living hehe :)
zufa,
you mean, list of books to buy? wow, that's a tough question. because it depends on you.. for a start, fiction or non-fiction? kalau fiction, nak baca for what purpose? something light? heavy? any particular genre? kalau non-fiction, again, what's the objective? any particular knowledge or info you're looking for? etc etc etc.. so you see, it's quite complicated hehe ;p but i'll keep on sharing some of the books i read insyaAllah :)
Yeah why not? U write well. Ever consider writing a book? U should!

rambang mata weh tengok buku. Bajet aje yg takde.
mynie, the problem is, buku beratur tu selalu banyak :p. kadang2 tak tahu, tapi bila sampai kedai buku tu, ada je yang confirm nak beli :p. tu bahaya masuk kedai buku tu :p. ni pun tengah tahan godaan PTS
suraiya,
to read and to write tu dah lain cerita! keinginan di hati memang ada, tapi belum dapat mendisiplinkan diri.. (aiks tulis blog boleh, tapi awat tulis untuk hantar kat anis tak siap2?) anyway, thanks very much. kata-kata suraiya menjadi pendorong bagi saya :)
and thanks for the link. another online bookshop woohoo! i'm thrilled to see that they have darussalaam books. ada tafsir ibn kathir, sahih bukhari etc wow belum jumpa lg kat malaysia. last time beli buku darussalaam kat london hehe..
ummu auni,
sabar, sabar. kalau org lain ada, pinjam dulu. macam yg kita dok buat nih hehe, kan jimat duit? :)
I too have a box full of books that I bought last year and haven't been read! Macam Ummu Auni gak, this year kena tahan nafsu sikit beli buku. At least 2 books per month ok la kut instead of 10 books per month!!
Oh yeah, my house has loads of books that my father bought in UK, and interesting & diversified topics too. But they are all in boxes. Why? They're deemed 'illegal' books here in Malaysia. *wink* *wink*
aina ana,
2 books per month is very reasonable i think :)
