Re: Books, Books, Books

yes books in Pakistan are comparatively cheaper, but most stalls at expo were giving lesser discounts as are available at Urdu Bazar.

Re: Books, Books, Books

did you ever happen to go to that used books market in Gulshan-e-Iqbal opposite to bait-al-mukarram? its a very good option if you have time to sift through the bundles and bundles of books.

I'm not sure if Frere Hall book fair is still organized every Sunday?

Re: Books, Books, Books

Never checked with that Gulshan market, as I was told that it mostly got English fiction.

Frere Hall book fair is arranged every Sunday and I do visit that once in a month.

Generally through online shopping or online library service.
