Where do you usually shop for books? What places would you recommend? Do you go for price, or ambience?  :)

BookSale.

I go for price and availability.  I have a list of books to buy -- and more often than not, I find them in BookSale at a steal! 

I NEVER buy new books (unless they're Harry Potter). 
RAGE and LOVE.

I actually go to Bestsellers at Galleria for new books.
And of course, Booksale for cheap finds. (e.g. Oprah's Book Club)  :P

Ay oo.  Abundant ang OBC sa Booksale.
Hinihintay ko pang bumaba yung price ng "A Virtuous Woman" eh.

Buy-the-book.

wala nang tatalo dito... yung mga librong binebenta nila, the same as those in powerbooks pero for a price cheaper than booksale.

Aww. Meron na ko nun. :P Bought at P15.
I always wait for the prices to reach at least P40 before I buy the book.  :D

FULLY BOOKED. :] The only place where I found Eclipse and New Moon. Yeah. And their notebooks are so pretty. However, they are too expensive. :|:))
if only you could hear me SHOUT your name, if only you could FEEL my LOVE again, the STARS, in the sky will NEVER  be the same. :D

The copy I found was PhP110.  And yeah, I don't buy anything above PhP50.

Power Books. AND Booksale ;)
Strength lies in differences, not in similarities.
