Secondhand book store 🇸🇬

Tucked inside Bras Basah Complex, Evernew is my favorite second-hand bookstore in Singapore. The moment you step in, the smell of old paper hits you, and every corner tells a story. From classic novels to rare finds, it feels like the books are waiting just for you.

The shop is small but full of character. The owner always greets with a warm smile, asking, “Looking for something special today?” Sometimes I wander in with no plan, but I always leave with a book (or two!) that feels like a treasure.

If you love the quiet thrill of discovering forgotten stories, this is your spot. A perfect place to slow down and get lost in pages.

... Read moreHaving visited Evernew Book Store several times, I can truly say it’s a gem for anyone who loves secondhand books in Singapore. The store’s intimate size makes browsing feel personal, and the owner’s friendliness adds to the welcoming atmosphere. Aside from the wide range of genres, what I found exciting was the variety of rare and collectible books, such as used textbooks and vintage novels. Each book seems carefully curated, revealing a unique slice of history or literature. For students and avid readers seeking affordable options, Evernew is also a great place to find used textbooks in good condition. The convenience of its location in Bras Basah Complex—a hub for arts and culture—makes it easy to combine a visit with nearby cafes or galleries. If you are hunting for a specific title or want to explore Singapore’s independent bookstores, Evernew’s collection is a rewarding detour. The shop also occasionally features signed copies or limited editions, enhancing its appeal to collectors. Overall, Evernew Book Store embodies the charm of vintage bookshops with its scent of aged paper and literary treasures, making every visit a peaceful adventure into forgotten stories and knowledge.
