As a bookworm, I aim to read many classics.
I’ve read a few, but I want to read more. There’s Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights, but I don’t know if I should buy it. Jane Eyre looks really interesting, and it costs 295 php, but I’m still not sure. :|
“The Twelfth Angel” by Og Mandino
I was looking at the books in our house, and I saw this one. I read the plot at the back of the book, and I decided to bring it to school so I’ll have something to read when there is free time. At first, I thought that I wouldn’t like it, since it’s a story about life. You know .. it’s that I’m-gonna-kill-myself-but-someone-comes-along kind of book. But somehow, I learned to appreciate the book. Even though it’s a book about life and how important it is, I liked it. I didn’t expect myself to like it hahahaha. :D
Those books have different covers, and the photos that I used in this post are the covers of the copies I have. :)
I really like Sophie Kinsella. I first bought her book “Remember Me?” to see why she’s a famous author. Since I’ve only read one of her books, I can’t really judge her. By now I’ve read three and I really really love her! <3 Most of the time, the books I’ve read and loved are mostly fantasy, or not real. For example, angels (Fallen Series), vampires (HoN series; they’re awesome vampires, okay?), fairies gnomes LEPrecon and such (Artemis Fowl). Sophie Kinsella’s books makes me realize more that plots that can actually happen in real life can be good, as long as the author is awesome. (I sure hope that my readers get my point) Heh~ :D
I bought the book “Remember Me?” on our trip to Macau, bought “The Undomestic Goddess” on our trip to Malaysia, and bought “Can You Keep a Secret?” on our trip back to Manila from Malaysia. :)) I’ll definitely be buying more of Sophie Kinsella’s books. Good thing that Christmas is soon. :3 HAHAHA :D
I can’t really make a review about those two Sophie Kinsella books because mostly I’ll be saying “I love it!” a lot of times, so I’ll go on to the third one.
The Book of Tomorrow. When I first read the basic plot story on the back of the book, I was hooked. I have to admit, it was one of those books that you have to force yourself to start. The first few pages were good, and the following pages up to around page 50 were really boring. Thankfully, the story got better after that. The plot got so interesting. It was a page-turner.
I finished the book at school since I was too sleepy last night (but I would’ve finished it if I wasn’t lying on the bed). The plot is amazing! I really love this book! :”>
I could never write a book review properly because I’ll probably be like, “The plot was _____”, “I really love it!”, “It’s awesome/amazing/other adjectives”.
But seriously, I just love the feeling of finishing a really good book. :”> <3
I READ FINISHED RE-READING RAPTURE.
YOU ALL MUST UNDERSTAND THAT I JUST CANNOT CONTAIN ALL THESE EMOTIONS OF MINE. THE ENDING IS JUST SO AEFEHFWEFWHEWGR MAKES ME WANNA CRY IN A CORNER AND STAY THERE FOREVER CONTEMPLATING THE ENDING OF THAT BOOK. I MEAN, THAT BOOK IS JUST SIMPLY THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BOOK I HAVE EVER READ.
THE ENDING JUST MAKES ME WANNA ISOLATE MYSELF FROM OTHER PEOPLE BECAUSE I REALLY WOULDN’T BE ABLE TO CALM DOWN. IT’S SAD AND BEAUTIFUL AND HAPPY AT THE SAME TIME. I HAVE MIXED EMOTIONS ABOUT IT BUT I THINK THERE’S NO OTHER WAY TO END IT BUT OVER TIME I HAVE LEARNED TO ACCEPT IT.
I JUST WANT TO CRY. RAPTURE, YOU BEAUTIFUL BOOK. I WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO WRITE BETTER BOOKS IN THE FUTURE. NEVER. ♥ :’(
The Host by Stephenie Meyer
I told Pam yesterday that I want to borrow it from her, so this morning at 6 AM, she gave it to me. I immediately started reading. Since we didn’t have morning classes at all, except for one subject (KJ) I was able to finish it before our lunch break, which is at 12:20 PM. :)
I wasn’t so lame like the Twilight Saga. It was actually really good. Just the right amount of love stuff. =)))))))
Last night, at around 11 PM, I decided to start on this book and hope that I fell asleep. I didn’t. I ended up reading it until 2 AM. I really loved it, but it hurts so much. I thought it was a single book, but it turns out there’s a next book coming out, called “The Elite”. I was really heartbroken. The plot is so awesome! ♥ I won’t even try to describe it because it’s really hard describing such beautiful books. Just trust me. <3
I love the book so much! :’) I hope it wouldn’t be made into a movie someday. Now that will be another heartbreak. :)
