Honestly, the event sounded like a school trip or something LOL! Anyway, last Sunday was the first time I attended an event from the book club which I've joined in Facebook, KL Book Appreciation Club (#KLBAC). I was nervous but also curious at the same time. Thankfully I do know Leon of Bookalicious! so in the end I didn't fell out of place or scared out of my wits. In fact, we had so much fun getting to know each other and also the bookstore that time actually flew by!
Background of this event:
It was created for #KLBAC members who wished to go to Bookalicious! as a group. Especially for those who did not know the way to this bookstore. Leon Ngai, Merchandising Manager of Bookalicious!, was there to give us a tour of his humble bookstore.

Just loved the facade! So inviting! |
|
Leon's wife, Wendy, made all these yummy finger food for us! |
|
The decorated, vintage posters! If you noticed, this is the Buy 1 Free 2 corner! So worthy! |
|
Special, limited editions are behind the counter |
|
Books galore! All arranged according to genres! |
|
The biggest genre - Young Adults! From dystopian to fantasy to new adult! |
|
New Arrivals at low prices every day! |
|
Journals for the writers at heart |
|
Group photo time! Jessica, Naz, Leon, Ai Jou and me |
|
I was surprised we have a memento from this trip. Thanks KLBAC and Artsy Craftsy for this beautiful bookmark! |
|
My humble journal haul from Bookalicious! So loving the cute bookmarks! |
Pssst: according to Jessica, all the lovely bookmarks, paper-bags and logo were designed by Wendy! She's so talented and creative!
Honestly, I can just browse endlessly, looking at those luscious books the whole day! I am weird like that! As I've mentioned before, bookstores are my heaven!
Thanks to Ai Jou for organizing this wonderful trip. I do enjoy their company especially since we are all bibliophiles. I do hope to be able to join future events if the location, date and $$$ permit. It is a lot more fun with many like-minded people around, sharing ideas, infos and etc...
Bookalicious! is located at Lot G22, Ground Floor, The Summit USJ
