there was one time where i went to PD beach infront of seri malaysia to read. the best place to read is beaches lor.

Yes, that is the main concern, location and i believe city, big city people tend to be more well educate so reading is one of the hobby, not to say small city is not educated but majority will agree with me

But as for now i need to hold that idea, my capital source seem to be in trouble



What about an open air rooftop? With a garden surrounding or minimalist design?

but as for me, i prefer to sit on a sandy beach instead.....

let me know if you need help. When i'm free i can help you to do some research. Location is definitely tricky. even big cities, it's hard to select the location. for me I will be thinking: KL/PJ/Damansara?Subang/Bangsar/Mont Kiara?etc Then the cost of operating, say KL could be expensive sometimes it is hard when you have noble ideas to reach out and help others, encourage others to read. However, it can be done. Look at Big bad wolf books, I've spoken to the owners before, really respect them for their life long mission of making sure everyone reads by bringing in cheap books.


erm, sandy beach may not work all the time, especially when it is too hot. just my 2 cents

bawah pokok kelapa lah, aiyo! its freaking relaxing, when you got your feet buried in the sand and read your book, dayyum

haha. I've yet to try that. Maybe i will someday

the thought of having sand all over my precious books scare me :S

They will fall asleep instead

Nobody can't deny the relaxing factor of the beach, but normally it is located far from town/city, i'm afraid nobody wanna come if the location is setup near the beach


Research will be held when the capital is there as for now it is just an idea

Community that read is a better community, they are more knowledgeable, if you ask me, my fave book genre will be biography but we can learn a lot through reading, not necessarily someone need to read iq test book all the time to be smart

I just hope kids will understand how important to read a book plus we can get a tax reduction by buying books

I dont read books

I read at airport waiting room and during the flights.

so you planning to do it. hopefully your wish will come true very soon

Yes, thats my plan but for this moment it is just an idea without resource to make it happen

Maybe in a year or two

So far usually read at coffee shop or house.but nice idea TS,would love to spend the time reading in a cozy place serving tea/coffee and snacks with some instrumental/slow music

Yeap, do most of my reading during these times. The only good thing that ever came out of delayed flights.

No idea why ppl like to read in Starbucks. Most of the time it's a noisy and busy place. Not to mention, a cramp place as well.

I would have prefer any other coffee shop than Starbucks. Depending where u stay, kl and selangor actually got a lot of unique coffee shop places for u to go, which is more serene.

But for me personally, I would prefer to read at home or in lrt. But nowadays driving to work already. So now read less book 😢

Hey guys,

Any suggestion for a nice and comfortable place to read and hopefully easy to focus, around Subang Jaya area?
(I am super easily distracted by almost anything especially walking people!! )

Thanks in advance!

Read a lot in Starbucks. Noisy and cramped at times yes but at home there is that irresistible temptation of computer, internet, tv and the ever comfortable & seductive bed.

Public parks in the afternoon right after people finishing work and publics began their jogging rituals....

White noise. Some people focus better with white noise.

I just need to open my kindle and I forget about my environment. But I would say reading in the LRT and missing your station is priceless
