Thanks! Canrun.

I've been to this bookstore, it's huge! However, the english section is small, and the only books I saw were old classics Anna Karena (I'm spelling it wrong)-Leo Tolstoy, stuff read in grade school. I didn't see any new releases or recent best sellers.

Its strange. When I have been to Chengdu there are a couple of book shops with good novels and magazines but in Zhuhai and even Shenzhen they are rare to find. They are mostly like the Underground -classic literature.
