A National Book Store Christmas book fair is coming. Here's what to expect:
Whether or not you've finished your TBR pile back home, we know you're always on the hunt for more books (what's a book ban? We don't know her). It's also the place to be if you're looking for something to gift your book-loving friends. So get your carts ready, because a quick visit to the NBS' Sulit Reads Christmas Book Fair will have you ticking all your (and your friends') reading wishlists even before Christmas.
The event is happening from November 17 to 19, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the Quantum Skyview, Gateway Mall 2 in Cubao. Admission is free, of course, but just to be extra sure, you can RSVP and get more information and updates about the upcoming event.
Expect books, books, and more books from different genres and categories that can go as low as P10. Look out for titles with buy one, get one deals and for those that have a whopping 80% off their price tags. Stay alert for all the flash sales that are going to happen on best-selling titles, too! That's a lot of exciting stuff to watch out for for three days. Not that we're complaining, though.
If you need books, and office and school supplies without leaving the comforts of your own home, you can shop National Book Store on their Lazada and Shopee pages.
National Book Store's Sulit Reads Christmas Book Fair will run from November 17 to 19, 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the Quantum Skyview, Gateway Mall 2, 255 General Araneta, Cubao, Quezon City.
