Best 10 Online BookStores in Malaysia

There are over 100 Bookstores in Malaysia, varying in sizes and focus. However, this list is compilation of the Best I0 Online Bookstores in Malaysia. Some of these bookstores focus on new and used books. These pre-owned or 2nd hand books are thriving as it is more affordable to the consumer and high margins for the business owners. In today context, it is acceptable as people value experience over higher cost of ownership. However, during COVID, these online 2nd hand bookstores suffered a hit as some scientific studies claimed that the coronavirus can survive for weeks on certain contact surfaces. Lately, the move to living with COVID, has changed that mindset totally.

Online bookstore can provide more information about favorite books because online bookstores have their own unique way of selling books and features. Such as ordinary members, senior members, gold members and other user registration functions. Some online bookstores have membership points settings. When consumers reach a certain level, they automatically become premium members and receive discounts and special services. Hence, the consumers or bibliophile can buy the books with lower price.

Lit Books

Started on

Online Bookstores - Introduction

Good books light up our world.
And that is why we christened our bookstore, Lit Books. We love that the word “Lit” has different connotations – it’s short for literature or literary, but more pointedly, the word speaks of being illumined or enlightened, much like how reading good books elucidates the world around us.
Encapsulating this idea is our firefly mascot, the Lit Bug – because good literature illuminates our minds and souls, and ignites our imaginations.
Founded and managed by a husband and wife duo who are former journalists and ardent bibliophiles, Lit Books specialises in English literary titles. Our curated collection of critically acclaimed fiction across genres is complemented by a robust selection of non-fiction as well. From collector’s editions of classics to modern and contemporary reads and of course, exciting new releases, Lit’s handpicked titles are sure to appeal to avid and casual readers alike.
More than just a bookseller, Lit was conceived to be a haven for book lovers, where conversation and discourse are encouraged and welcome. Complementing the books are literary themed merchandise and gifts sourced from the UK and the US, and a drinks bar.

MPH Group Malaysia Sdn Bhd

Started on January 1, 1890

Online Bookstores - Introduction

From a humble beginning as a small bookshop selling general titles, MPH Bookstores has since progressed and grown to become one the leading bookstore chains in Malaysia.

Being a pioneer in the book retail business, the brand MPH has become a well-loved and treasured household name in the country. We were the first book retailer to introduce a megastore concept in Malaysia with the opening of MPH Mid Valley in the year 2000, where shoppers were introduced to services and facilities such as self-search terminals, internet kiosks, reading lounges, a kids’ corner and a full-fledge customer service.

In the early 2000, we embarked on our journey into the e-commerce world by launching our very own e-commerce store, MPHOnline.com. Being the first book retailer in Malaysia to venture into the e-commerce business, MPHOnline.com’s vision of creating a borderless, online bookstore has allowed us to reach customers in places where we had no physical presence. Since then, MPHOnline.com has succeeded in delivering the retail experience right to the doorsteps of customers, fulfilling the need for convenience, speed, efficiency and reliability of our services.

Fast forward to today, MPH continues to bring innovation to book retailing in the digital age by establishing more touch points to connect with our customers through physical and online stores, vending business and soon mobile applications. With the advent of technology today, we aim to adopt an omnichannel retailing approach to provide our customers with a seamless shopping experience.

BookXcess Sdn. Bhd.

Started on January 1, 2006

Online Bookstores - Introduction

All our books are new. Many of them are printed specially for us, others are overstock or remaindered books. These originate from publishers who have printed too many copies of a new title, sent them for sale at regular book stores, and then had them returned by retailers when sales start to slow. The publisher is then faced with a choice: to destroy the books or resell them at a discount. This is how we obtain so many books at such good prices, enabling us in turn to pass these savings on to our customers. The books are sometimes marked on their base with a black pen to indicate their status, but they are all nonetheless essentially brand new.

We recommend customers buy immediately any book on our website that is of interest to them. In many cases, once a book sells out, we may never have it in stock again!

Our mission is to make books accessible to everyone, thereby spreading the joy of reading and increasing English literacy.

booksnbobs logo

Buukshop Sdn Bhd (Books n Bobs)

Started on

Online Bookstores - Introduction

I started Books n Bobs in July 2016 as a Facebook shop with less than 100 books in stock. The idea was born out of a passion for reading and book shopping. I love to read and buy books, so, what better way to combine my passion for a job? Now I have the perfect excuse to buy, buy, buy!! And buy I did, as we now have 1000s of books in stock and continue to add more books regularly.

As a bookworm and book hoarder, I always struggle to buy all the books I want with the limited resources that I have. With a relatively high price, I was less willing to try out new and unknown books/authors. Buying second-hand books become the best solution. Plus, I’d like to think we are giving a book a new life when it gets passed to another reader to be read and cherished. That is why Books n Bobs specializes in second-hand books, which make up about 90% of our stock.

In March 2019, our website booksnbobs.com was launched. Up till that point, our orders were increasing and I was finding it hard to cope without jeopardizing the quality of service. My husband, Steve, and I worked nonstop for months to get the website up. With the website handling the ordering and some admin work, we can now work faster, serve more customers and deliver more joy to you!
Our Facebook page remains active with a lot of tips and information sharing, announcements and fun activities. Be sure to like and follow our Facebook page and Instagram account so you don’t miss the fun!
Since we carry both new and secondhand books, we have included the condition of each and every book on the individual book’s page. All books are carefully checked and graded according to our internal guidelines. They are categorized into 5 condition categories, namely Brand New, Like New, Very Good, Good, and Acceptable. For a description of the book conditions, please refer to the FAQ section (a link is available at the bottom of each page). Thank you for visiting booknbobs.com and I wish you a pleasant browsing and shopping experience!
