Bought Manga Comics for my daughter as today is her 11th birthday.
Smiling face, after her wishes come through. Kinokiuniya full and pack with quality books. Just name it and you will find as your desired.
Some of the staff is friendly and helpful.
Wishing my childhood could be the same as today....

A 5 star bookstore in Kuala Lumpur, located in KLCC. A lot of Genres - Literature, Social Sciences, Politics, Religions, Language, Comic, Children etc.

This is a place that suit an entire family, where you can instill the joy of reading together as a family. They have a wide range of books that suit every age group. The selection of books are great.
From professional, health, science to hobby and craft and so much more!

Please remember to visit their stationary corner, they have plenty of imported items from Japan and Singapore. Its very useful and good in quality, where you don't get it from others places.

[Please note: this bookstore is not targeting school exercise books where you aim for A' s and need a lot of work books.]

I'm amaze by their comic, Japan and Chinese section. Books from Taiwan and more. All books are in good quality and upto date as much as they can.

The books price is at mid to high side in Malaysia, as most of them are imported. I'm yet to discover another bookstore that have the same level as Kinokuniya in KLCC.

I have visited Kinokuniya in Japan and Singapore. I can't compare directly because the selection and reading culture in both countries are in huge gap compare to Malaysia local reading culture.

This make KLCC a unique place to gather and hang out!

So many options! Books, manga, law student textbooks! Even exclusive collections are easy to get here, especially mangas. The price tho is a bit expensive than ur usual local bookstores but that's to be expected. The place is huge with a cafe upstairs too.

Ahh, the Mothership. Still the only worthy reason I'd brave the KL crowd and traffic. This store has one of the best selections for contemporary, language, classics/literature, horror/thriller, politics, manga and Japanese titles. Now they even have a dedicated 'Tiktok' section to appeal to the gen Zs and social media literates.

I've been to the Kinokuniya outlets in Japan and Singapore but this KL outlet is still my favorite, due to the sheer volume and variety of tomes available. I'm also in love with the ample space and layout here, it's very peaceful and relaxing (but of course sans the crowd on weekends or public holidays).

No doubt, as it is a brick and mortar, the price can be a little daunting, whatwith the proliferation of the cheaper options by secondhand/preloved and online book stores, but they're getting more aggressive with the marketing, with the ongoing promotions, highlighting different authors/genres every month. It seems like there's always this 20% off promo each month, so if you're targeting certain books then it's best if you pay attention to their social media on the latest promotions.

While this outlet is a book haven for readers, I wish I could say the same thing about their website. It's not user friendly and if you have the luxury of time to go the store instead of purchasing online, I'd definitely recommend the physical store for the experience.

The only bookshop in Malaysia that has a diverse range of books. Very popular. Good selection. Good customer service. Staff are very helpful. They also have a coffee club upstairs. There's a selection of Japanese books. We'll worth your time here.

My favourite bookstore in KLCC. I love just to hear beethoven instrumental background music but now not anymore. Upstairs theres cafe and art book. Its not crowded up here. Cute stationaries and all kind of books, postcards, journal and figure item. Love everything here so organized and cool place. Yeah, it is bit expensive. Membership RM38/year.
