From Gulf News: Astrology books are bestsellers in Bahrain

Manama: Astrology books have topped the list of bestsellers in Bahrain over the last week of December and first week of the new year.

"The rush to buy astrology books is amazing," a bookseller in the trendy Seef Mall shopping complex said. "Even though they are not usually cheap, they have been exceptionally popular and we sold many of them," he said.

Shoppers included Bahrainis, Saudis and nationals from the region, he said. "The other books, ranging from history to political discourse to social issues were rather

forgotten in the last ten days and first week of January when the focus was mainly on predictions for the year 2012," the seller who did not wish to be identified said.
