Tudor,
I asked a related question on another thread and I got some feedback.

Here's the link for the thread with all the bookstore info: https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-269219.0.html

Some of the stores are pricey though, but you should be able to find what you're looking for.

Thanks, Suzzanne84, Goodboybad and FL Gator for the insights!

Appreciate your help.

I'm an ex-feddy student so I'm putting in my two cents effort to help spread da word about this book.
What about you?

@Joan4427

This new FEDDIE GIRL NOVEL will be available in Naija too, right?

You guys are killing us with suspense. Abeg, quick, quick, release the book make we begin read.

Seriously, as an ex-feddie student, my days in boarding house were so much fun! Wouldn't trade the experience for anything.

Sounds like a plan! I don't have novel-length manuscripts, but I do have a collection of stories and a few poems I slaved on over the years.

This is a wonderful idea. Thanks Joan 4427 for making the pitch!!!!!!!

Abeg, wey Seun

Heheh!!!! Everyone on Facebook is talking about this novel. We are waiting, waiting, waiting, for the release date!

bgees:
I buy my novels from road side traders in Yaba market. I get it at cheaper prices than at those big book stores and Silverbird.
Some of those big stores have a limited range of novels. You dnnt always get the book you want and when u see the books they are very expensive. So why go there when u can get it cheaper at the roadside.

I got a classic like Jeffrey Archer's 'As Crow Flies' for 400 naira at Yaba. How much do u think those big stores will sell it? That book would certainly be sold for a like 2000+ .

The only problem with the Yaba boys is they sell names. Grisham,Sheldon, Puzo ,Forsyth and other big names will attract higher prices(1k at d maximum).
And if they don't have the book u want just tell them to help u get it and that can take a week or two but u will surely get the book u want.

@bgees,

Thanks, man, for the info. But I think roadside vendors in Yaba only sell used/recycled novels, right?
What I'm mainly looking for are new novels. Quality books I can package as gifts to family and friends, etc. Do you know if there are such bookstores that carry them at a reasonable price?

If I can find a reputable stores that carry new foreign novels at N2000, I will be very glad. Most stores I've seen usually ask for like N4500 HELP!!!!!!!

And please, where is Silverbird located? Any contact info for them? (Don;t mind my asking, I am a JJC)

Thanks a bunch!

tpiah:
If you're looking for new releases, you may have to be prepared to shell out more and shop in the high end areas of town eg Lagos Island, MMA bookstores, etc. Dont know if Silverbird has a bookstore. Some of the shopping malls might have the books you're looking for.

I thought you were living in one of those small towns which normally have a few major bookstores that are well stocked.

Did you check Surulere and Yaba? Also, Unilag bookstore.

@ Tpisaah,
Thanks a lot for the reply and suggestion. I have not heard of NMA Bookstore. DO you have an address or website info for them?

Many of my friends in Surulere say they buy their books from roadside vendors like in Ojuelegba, etc. What I'm looking for is a place to buy new quality novels for use as gift to friends etc.

Pls forgive my ignorance, but where is Silverbird located?

Thanks!

BlueDiva:
Amazon ships to Nigeria.
Postage is high though.

@ BlueDiva,
Really, okay thanks for the information. I'll check this out.

This novel should be a must read for all ex-feddie students. Lol!!!!!!!

@Jon4427,
No problem. I'm happy to help.

.

Sorry, topic deleted. Pls see duplicate post.

The count-down continues, 5 weeks and 3 days. YES!!!!!

Are you referring to like bookstores in Balogun market, or something like that? They usually don't carry new foreign novels. Eg Stephen King, Grisham, Jackie Collins. Even if they do, it is the pirated copies or old second-hand editions.

I'm in Lagos.

dominique:
OMG!!! i cant believe i've been seeing this thread for weeks now and i diddnt bother to open it. so this is what i've been missing. thats best punishment can exert on a rebellious child. Noan Davis's a genius .

@joan4427
do you know where hard copies of the book are distributed in nigeria.

I don't think the book has been released yet. I went to the publisher's site and they said in July. We are waiting patiently for the tantalizing book.

tpiah:
I dont think amazon ships to Nigeria.

not sure however.

Thanks, Tpiah. So where do we go to buy novels in Nigeria? Do you have a good recommendation?

Joan, we are still waiting, waiting, waiting.

Good job though on publicizing this book. It's all everyone is talking about lately. CAN'T WAIT OOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Didn't someone post a topic about where to download e-books for free. I saw that topic like 2-3 weeks ago. You should probably search through this section for it. I'm sure you'll find the thread/ recommended site very useful.

All ex-feddy girls in the house, say, YAY!!!!!!!!!!!
