Wintersmith by Terry Pratchett

This book is a sequel to the wonderful 'Hat Full of Sky'. Once again we join Tiffany Aching and the ever amusing Wee Free Men in another whacky adventure. This time though, the spirit of winter seems to have fallen in love with a disinterested Tiffany and much to her horror, he doesn't seem to take any of her hints. If she doesn't figure out how to deal with him, spring may never return.

Great News!

There's some exciting news for all you readers out there! There is a bookshop at Amcorp Mall, Petaling Jaya, that is selling nooks for half the price of normal bookstores. Here's the best part: the books are BRAND NEW! It's two stores away from Kenny Roger's Roasters on the top floor. Go and check it out!

The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho

Loved this book! One would describe it as a sort of New Age fairy tale that takes you all over the world. The book is about a young boy Santiago who is trying to realize his own Personal Legend. Readers will discover the challenges, both mental and physical, that Santiago will face and why other people do not realize their Personal Legends. It is an uplifting and inspiring story and will prove to be the proverbial light house for those of you who need some direction in reaching your goals in life.

Happy New Year!

Here's to a glorious new year! I've been keeping up with the book reading... just not the blogging... got my hands pretty tied up in December what with Christmas celebrations and all. Anyway I shall be posting entries (slowly but surely) about the books I've read so far. Hope this site remains helpful to all of you.

Cheers!
