Hi,newbie here regards 2nd hand books

Post by jenny uk »

Hi everyone, just a couple of lines, my partner and I are staying in Cha -am in September. we are both avid readers of sci fantasy books and wondered if there was a 2nd hand book shop where we might either buy or swap books when we have read ours. we usualy bring between 6-9 brand new ones with us kind regards jenny uk :roll:

night market stalls, Hua Hin dog shelter both have lots of books also you can sometimes swap them for guests houses and hotels collections. There are very few sci fi or fantasy books around but you may find a few.

Billys Bar in the Bazaar has a large collection of second hand books that can be swapped.

Bit I am not sure how many Sci-Fi fantasy books would be there.

OK, fully expecting to be edited, as I don't know how to answer this without it sounding like an ad. As stated before our charity shop does stock 2nd hand books, but quantity & genre depend very much on donations at the time. I think we have a couple of sci fi/fantasy books at the mo, but that's all. I can't say how it'll be in September, but as a rule we don't get much sci fi, maybe sci fi readers hold on to their books!? Thrillers & women's interest are more the sort of thing we sell a lot of. The plus is we're very cheap!! :)
Another swap place not mentioned previously is Hua Hin Ham, Bacon & Meat on Soi 41. Again, not sure what type of books they have, though...
