I started my professional life in Churchgate, but the reason I am drawn to the place more is mainly because of the used books library at Fort. Well, it’s not really a library, per se, more like a store where you can get original and fake books that are more of hand-me-downs at very reasonable prices. Once you are done, you can just return the books and get over 60% of your money back. When I am hunting for something that I can’t afford or find, i go down there. with over 10 vendors selling thousands of books, you most often than never find what you are looking for…but not always! 😦
very true with last few words “but not always”…..i was so badly searching for a book on radars and to my dismay the last piece was sold an hour ago i reached..yea but true its the mecca , Medina for books …

That is my idea of a beautiful place!
One in which you could spend hours, getting lost in the merchandise!
Hope you are feeling much better —
