My Shelf

Yes, the semester break is almost over and class is starting next week and the best thing is, I’m still in the holiday mode! Sleeping at 6 or 7AM and waking up late noon does not help in fixing my biological clock. Attached to another drama series called Growing Through Life and a novel Incubus Dreams makes all these happen. My passion to music does not help to make me sleep, instead, it keeps me awake!

Speaking of novels, I’m back to my addictions and started to buy novels whenever I finished one. Buying two at one go ain’t cheap with both costing about RM30++. To feed the love, something must be sacrificed! Or so, I thought. But heck, I think one should check out this novelist Faye Kellerman. I have to admit, the first book I bought by her was titled The Mercedes Coffin. It’s a mystery thriller and I cannot leave the book at all until I’ve finished it. So far, I’ve never been able to do that, not towards books that thick. I love the way she twists the plot and the story certainly build climaxes. It gets me wanting to know how the murder was carried out and another of her book, Hangman, talks about serial killer. Although the ending was predictable, the story fulfils the thrill and again, I can’t seem to leave it alone until I’ve finished the story! Don’t ask me about Incubus Dreams. I’ve loved Thrillers, Fantasies, and Horrors especially and this is nothing I would think of. All I can say is that, it’s filled with lots of sex scenes with vampires,werewolves, wereleopards (basically, shapeshifters) and so on… and a tad of murder and bits on necromancers, awesome. I’m speechless but heck, who doesn’t like such thing? Laurell K. Hamilton is the author.

I’ve to clear some stuff to make way for my books and I think I would need to buy more this weekend. Oh, I finally found the books for my Night World collection by L.J Smith and I think I need to buy the other edition to complete it. I do hate borrowing my books to people now that I’ve come to realize that I’ve lost a number of books knowing that it has been borrowed but none returned. It pains me to know that these people do not treasure it at all and no matter how I asked, it never come back.
