Suddenly, there seems a lot of time on my hands.

35559 On the book front, I've been immersed in re-reading Skip Beat!, Vol. 1 by Yoshiki Nakamura manga. It's a superb shoujo manga (manga aimed at teenage girls) with a monthly release date. I can't abide the wait and I lose track for a year or so. Then I try to read everything at one go. Now I'm caught up with the latest - chapter 200 but it ended with an awesome awesome development. I can't wait for the next chapter which is due on ... JUNE 5th. *Sigh*

I've also resumed reading Wedding Night by Sophie Kinsella . It's going good so far (if you buy into the outlandish premise)

35559 Me too! I love my e-reader and I don't go out without it. I'm slowly taking over hubby's iPad also (Poor guy. He doesn't know it yet) I'm slowly converting my book collection to e-books.

I had to shift twice in a year and the first thing that got the axe was those extra books that I couldn't shift internationally. Ebooks to the rescue.

Have a great day, folks! It's bedtime for me.
35559 It's the same for me. Sliders test my patience as well but I do it because I cannot let it win.

35559 Me too! Just give me a book store - library or paid and it's like I'm heaven. My brother thinks I'm nuts too. (He is the only person in my family who doesn't read. I think he's a changeling.) Hubby still doesn't know the true extent of my hobby ;)

35559 Leslie: Re: V for Vendetta: Nope, I haven't seen the movie. I didn't know there was a movie. Thanks for the info. I should check it out. I also have to read Watchmen by Alan Moore . Sadly, that library didn't have.

JAK's older works are comfort reads for me. I always enjoy them :)

35559 The libraries in Singapore have a great collection. It also helped that the branch I went today (it's just 5 train stops away) is one of a bigger version spanning 4 floors. Plus I love the fact the libraries here have started introducing manga and graphic novels. Today, I saw a lady borrowing some 24 volumes of One Piece, Volume 01: Romance Dawn. (We can borrow 8 books per card)

Here's a pic of the Central Lending Library, the largest in Singapore. I used to spend hours in the library when I was on break.

35559 Good Morning Team! It's FRIDAY today! And it's pouring outside here. I can sit all day and watch the rain. It's so mesmerising.

How's everyone progressing with their RaT reads? Just slightly more than 2 days to go!

P.S: Can't wait to see what's today spot is going to be!
