Sharing love of reading


Wong runs her monthly book exchange activity in Taman Desa, Kuala Lumpur.

READING can be an expensive hobby, especially when an average price of a new book ranges from about RM40 to more than a hundred ringgit.

Some of us wait patiently for year-end book sales to fill our bags with not-so-current titles but book hoarding may not be a good thing either. We often purchase too many books and don’t know what to do with them after we are done reading.
