[Book] The Best of Adam Sharp (by Graeme Simsion): Couldn't finish it. I couldn't finish it. This is a new book by Graeme Simsion who wrote The Rosie Project and The Rosie Effect. I love The Rosie Project and I like The Rosie Effect. So I chose this one but I just couldn't finish it. It is quite different from the Rosies. And the characters in the story are kind of too ordinary. It's a love stor..

[Book] The Rosie Effect (by Graemie Simsion): Still hilarious Title: The Rosie Project Author: Graemie Simsion As I deeply enjoyed the first book of the sequel (duology? bilogy? dilogy?), I naturally continued reading the second one. This is not as extraordinary as the first one, but I could still enjoy and it is still hilarious. The first book is how Don met Rosie and became a partner while the..

[Book] Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix I love this part! "What's that supposed to mean?" said Ron indignantly. "What sort of person cries when someone's kissing them?" "Yeah," said Harry, slightly desperately, "who does?" Hermione looked at the pair of them with an almost pitying expression on her face. "Don't you understand how Cho's feeling at the moment?" she asked. "No," said Harry..

[Book] The Blind Assassin - Margaret Atwood: Review at 10% progress Title: The Blind AssassinAuthor: Margaret Atwood This is the book I am reading now. It's thick. I've read about 10%.

Characters - Laura ChaseThis the n..

[Book] The adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson: What is identity? Title: The adoration of Jenna Fox Author: Mary E. Pearson I read this book for a book club meeting. Fortunately, I could borrow its ebook copy from the local library as shown in the picture above.

[Book] Food Allergies for Dummies & Explaining... Asthma I picked up some non-fiction books which I rarely do; One for food allergies and the other for asthma. I came up with a thought that I need to understand them at least at some minimum level of knowledge, for myself, my wife and my daughters, and friends as well. 1. Food Allergies for Dummies Title: Food Allergies for Dummies Authors: Rober..

[Book] Leaving Time - Jodi Picoult: It's all about elephants Reading period: 26 May - 27 June, 2016 I started to read this book thanks to the recommendation from a local library. In one sentence, I enjoyed it. The copy that I began reading it. The copy that I ended reading it. As I often say, I was so slow in reading the story that I ended up to reading it with a different copy from that I start..
