Hi everyone... How was your weekend? Are you doing good? I hope so...
At this time let's talking about the annual Indonesia International Book Fair in Jakarta.
The Indonesia International Book Fair is one of the biggest annual book bazaars in Jakarta. This year, the Indonesia International Book Fair (which will later be referred to as IIBF) was held at the Jakarta Conventional Center, Gelora Bung Karno area, Senayan. During my stay in Jakarta, this is the third IIBF that I have attended. All three were held by JCC because the location is not far from where I live. Last year, IIBF was held in Tangerang city, I did not attend it because of the long distance.
Let's find out some books here:

Every year, IIBF is held to attract public interest in reading, for that the organizers do not charge an entrance fee. Anyone can go to IIBF for free. The concept of IIBF this time is very interesting where there are many yellow and white posters. It is very interesting when you see the posters hanging from the ceiling. It is like a guide to what books you can find in this book bazaar.
Today, When I went there, I met many students who came. This is indeed a place for students to explore their reading books. In addition, there are also talk show agendas that are very good for them to follow. It will motivate the nation's successors to be closer and more interested in the field of literacy.
These are the two biggest Publishers in Indonesia. They are permanent members of this annual book bazaar where they can sell all their books here, closer to their potential readers.

At this bazaar, I wanted to find a productivity book that had been reviewed by Maudy Ayunda. The book is about the art of waking up early. I need that book to raise my spirits and motivate me to wake up early. However, I didn't find it so I will keep the book on my list. This time, just like before, I am not interested in buying fiction books because I am kinda picky for fiction books. If there is a book I want to buy, it must be a textbook and a self-improvement book. Of course, books for my nephew will not be left behind.

After walking around, I found this zone. In this zone, there are many discounted books. I went around some shelves and found many interesting books. Unfortunately, I had already used up my budget for buying books this month a few days ago, so I bought the books I wanted the most from the books that were already on my list.

After looking around finally, I decided that at this IIBF bazaar, I bought two children's books for my niece, two English learning books for me, and a self-improvement book for Kiara. If you don't know, Kiara is a fictional character that I created for my next novel project. I bought a book that is close to Kiara's personality who is experiencing numbness, so she needs a Happy tutorial book.
For All the books that I bought, I purchased around 100 Hive :D
Thanks in advance, to read my blog and hope you like my post!

Hi, Halo, Annyeong! Welcome to my galaxy.
I have so much imagination in my head. Something that I can't achieve as a human and as a girl. So writing is very challenging. Since Junior High School, I have written whatever I want to write. Without skill, I just write what I want to read. Now I have 12th published novels and all of them are romance.
Yeah, I proudly say that I am a passionate author, traveler wannabe, and blogger.
