Book Point

First thing you see when nearing Bookpoint is a sea of neon papers stacked against its shopfront — frightening compilations of exam papers from some of the top schools in Singapore. Bypass this and head in to get a good does of second-​hand book therapy. I know many people complain that the prices aren’t that great (some have been in the ridiculous $ 20-​$ 30 range) but I still enjoy browsing through the stacks of books with the hopes of finding a good bargain.
There technically is an alphabetical sorting system but you will probably be overwhelmed if it is your first time in the shop because the books pretty much tower above you everywhere you turn. If you get on good terms with the staff, they will be more than happy to give you discounts and recommendations. The poetry/​theatre section is at the other end of the shop so ask for directions if this is the genre you are looking for — I only discovered this nook recently because I never ventured over to the other side.
Have picked up quite a number of good titles at a decent enough price so give this place a shot if you are in the vicinity.

Book Point is another bookstore in Bras Basah Complex that buys and sells mainly new and second hand textbooks from Primary level all the way up to Postgraduate. Other than textbooks, they also carry reference books, fiction, non-​fiction and general books for all ages.
Parents and students do take note: they also carry a wide variety of exam worksheets of various famous schools in Singapore and Ten Year Series papers. These are displayed prominently outside their store — you will not fail to notice it as you come up the escalator.
