There has never been a better time to lose your head in a book

Calling all bibliophiles and bookworms in the capital. The Galleria on Al Maryah Island has a real treat for you with the opening of Books Kinokuniya in the capital. Initially promised as part of the malls openings phase, the two-level store is now open and is home to more than 150,000 English and Arabic titles. The modern store has been designed with comfort in mind and features Japanese and Arabic influencers, alongside comfortable stools and an abundance of natural light that encourages customers to make themselves at home.

There is plenty to peruses with the books on sale cover everything from bestsellers, to travel, history, business and wellness titles. For younger readers, the children’s books department is the largest in Abu Dhabi, where there are big plans for storytelling events in the future.

Away from the pages, Books Kinokuniya also contains a large range of Japanese manga figurines, collectibles and comics, plus stationery and fun gift items.

With social distancing meaning that we are spending more time at home, it seems like a great opportunity to tackle that reading list or lose yourself in a good novel.
