The latest Book Xcess outlet has opened in MyTOWN Shopping Centre. And wow, this latest outlet will really blow your mind. It explores over 31,200 square feet and offers more than 170,000 books and has many unique features.
The main entrance will already attract you and nope, that's not Ronald McDonald haha
There are many sections to explore inside this huge outlet perfect for bookworms and also non bookworms. For a book lover like me, entering this bookstore was heaven on earth. I never felt happier shopping haha
Come, let's explore...
There are books for anyone out there. There will definitely be a book for each and everyone of you.
Not to worry if the books are too high for your reach, there are stools available for you to climb and explore the higher racks. Otherwise, get customer service to assist you.
There's also children sections as well and you can see that they have built the racks even according to the children's height so it's easier for them to explore the books.
There's a bath book section as well attracting children to buy books for bath time so they can read during bath without damaging the books. The creativity level in this bookstore is not like your normal bookstore.
There's even an art gallery to showcase and help local artists. You can buy any painting featured on the wall and bring one back to brighten your home.
There's also a space showcasing artist Aleff Ahmad's 'Tiang Seri'.
Not forgetting, they also sell stationery and journals and diaries.
There are many OOTD photo worthy spots inside.
For example, this is an actual piano in the bookstore.
The entrance is also very catchy and the entire space is very instagrammable. They definitely attract book lovers and non book lovers. Just hop on inside and you will be lost in the world of BookXcess.
There's also a co-working space where you can bring your laptop and work here while enjoying the bright view outside. It is called 'The Piazza'.
If you're feeling hungry, you don't need to go out of the bookstore. There are 2 places where you can eat right in the bookstore! This is the first bookstore that has 2 F&B outlets.
First, is Whisk cafe. They specialise in coffee & serves up a delicious line up of home baked desserts.
You can enjoy some dessert cakes and a cuppa while reading or working.
Next is a Japanese restaurant, Ume Tei. It was established in 1997 by a chef from Okinawa, Japan. It is a family-run restaurant that serves classic Japanese Teishoku (set meals) and noodles dishes.
Yup, you can even enjoy Japanese food inside a bookstore. Say whatt!!
It's a total different dimension when you're in BookXcess and for some time I got lost just looking for books after books after books. It was so peaceful in there. I absolutely love reading and I think it's a good space BookXcess provided for readers to just get lost in their bookstore and cultivate the good habit of reading.
Come, explore!
