Fully Booked at Rustan’s, Makati

In case some of you (or a lot of you) do not know (I wouldn’t blame people for not knowing, it’s not even in their site), Fully Booked has a branch in Rustan’s, Makati. Yes, THAT Rustan’s. It’s been up and running since November of 2006, although I was first introduced to it around March of this year.

Getting there is simple enough once you’ve managed to get past the perfumed maze that is the Rustan’s department store (and in extension, Glorietta). Make your way all the way up to the fifth (yes, fifth) floor and you’ll end up right smack in the middle of the branch. You might take the other set of escalators, in which case you’ll find yourself stuck in the fourth floor – worry not, just make your way to the other side of the floor and there will be a magical escalator to take you up to the fifth.

The first thing you’ll see from the escalator is UCC, a café of sorts. Immediately to either side of you are the two halves of the branch. Turn to the right and you’ll see the Fiction (young adult, fantasy, novels) area, while to the left is the Non-Fiction (cookbooks, self-help, travelogues) one (I always go to the right).

It’s a pretty small branch, though they are impressively well stocked. If you’re the type who likes your bookstore quiet, then this is the place to go. They also have an array of chairs, tables, and couches, as well as a lot of spas and the café in the area, so there’s definitely no lack of lounging space there. The atmosphere of the store is comfortably cozy, and there are hardly any people around. The design is also very neat – they use more whites here than in their other stores, and it looks perpetually clean. Most importantly of all, it has my favorite bookstore couch.
