As your travel agent, I recommend preparing for Singapore with a mix of practical guides and inspiring reads. For guidebooks, consider Lonely Planet Singapore for detailed itineraries and neighborhood guides, DK Eyewitness Top 10 Singapore for visual inspiration and quick highlights, and Rough Guide to Singapore if you like deeper background and cultural context. For more context on the region, you might enjoy "From Third World to First" by Lee Kuan Yew (modern history of Singapore), "Singapore: A Biography" by Mark Ravinder Frost & Yu-Mei Balasingamchow for an accessible historical overview, and "The Food of Singapore Malays" by Khir Johari if you’re curious about local cuisine and culture. Reading a few of these before you go will help you better appreciate the architecture, hawker food culture, and the mix of Chinese, Malay, Indian, and Peranakan influences you’ll encounter during your stay in Katong and across the city.
