Prologue Book Store

Books. Books. And more books.
Sometimes when I want to buy books, I would just go online (like the BookDepos*tory, etc) as that is very convenient and often at cheaper price. Yet, when there are books that I cannot wait to put my hands on, I simply have to go to a bookstore and get that right away. Commercial… Popular… Page One… Metro… there are quite a few chained bookstores in Hong Kong. Therefore I was rather surprised to see a new one opening in Hong Kong. At the heart of Mong Kok, { prologue } bookstore is located on the fourth floor inside the renovated The Grand Century Place.
{ Prologue } Bookstore first started in Singapore in 2009 and it has gained quite a positive reputation. Finally last year it has decided to come to Hong Kong. Its walls are filled with interesting totems and definitely «scream» bookstore right away. The variety of books is rather impressive with the latest English books, graphic novels and magazines. Also they sell nice stationery and gadgets. And the best part is when you are hungry after reading for hours, they have Epilogue Café inside where you can sit down and enjoy a cup of coffee while continuing on turning the pages.
I especially love that it is located inside this mall as it is currently undergoing renovation and the number of people here is quite scarce, which provides a perfect environment for everyone to read at a tranquil and relaxing state of mind.
