Since I live in Busan, Korea, English books are hard to come by for me. I'll be in Manila next week but probably only for part of the day. Where can I find a good bookstore there? A used bookstore would be especially great. _________________
There are loads of them. Almost every shopping mall has at least one bookstore.
Dont know what part of Manila you plan to be in, but like many large cities, it takes an age to travel from one district to another.
If you happen to be in Makati, then there are bookstores in Greenbelt and Glorietta, which are adjacent malls, Glorietta being the larger. _________________ The Middle Eastern states aren't nations; they're quarrels with borders.- P. J. O'Rourke
