UF books

Just finished the 6 book Jr Ward boxset. I loved them so much. I'm definitely going to purchase numbers #7 and 8. Also I'm looking into more UF series, so many to read not sure where to start. Just might be my new favourite genre.

Three for the price of One

I shared this morning that I was to spend my day inside a book store. Well, it happened but not actually the whole day which was my original plan. My mom told me that we would be attending a thanks giving party from one of my mom’s close friends and so I had to adjust.
Anyway, when I arrived at the mall, I immediately went to National Bookstore because they were having this HUGE SALE. Yes dude, H-U-G-E. The books are up to 75% less. I found some books but then the prices were still too much for the budget I have. I only had 200 and I wanted to have atleast 3 new books. So, I was just drooling over Palahniuk’s, Albom’s and Coelho’s. Pity me, yes. I wasn’t able to save enough for this weekend. Ugh.

Then I decided to visit Booksale. The books they sell may look old and worn out but somewhere along those shelves I believe, are books which you would never even believe they would sell. And so I patiently scanned, read the synopsis, placed the book back and looked for more interesting plots.
In the end, I found three worthy books at their cheapest prices.

  • Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert
  • Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
  • The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks

All these books for just $1.50
That’s why I went home with that BIG SMILE on my face. :D

HoN v.s. VA

Both awesome series!
Which do you like more?
I'm 100% for VA, gotta love Rose&Dimitri.

Same Kind of Different As Me

I finished this book in less than 3 days. I was taken in by chapter 2 and laughed, cried, pondered, and repented the whole way through. It is well written and easy to digest yet full of hidden treasures. I like that this book challenges those of us who consider ourselves Christian - that we usually aren't as real as we say and certainly rarely have actions that are as revolutionary as Jesus paved the way for. Both authors are honest in their struggles with themselves, their histories, weaknesses and the strength found in their purpose together. I most admire that they consider making a difference in one life, and the difference one life can make, important.

Dr. Seuss

I don’t care how childish is it, Green Eggs and Ham is ALWAYS going to be one of my favorite books. I know it by heart.

I don’t like green eggs and ham, I don’t like that Sam I am.
I don’t like them here or there, I don’t like them anywhere.
I do not like them in a house, I do not like them with a mouse.
Not in a box, not with a fox.


Gosh, this book is amazing. Coolest children story to ever exist.
