Mike | 4 comments the revised penal code. it's a slow read, painfully complex, and not always interesting, but it's highly recommended when you're in law school lol.

Hi Sandee. Can't help noticing your post. I really liked Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock. How was it with you so far?

Amen. I was so disappointed with myself for not reading it earlier (can't blame me, though, 'cause the genre's been disappointing me with their latest releases).

But... Haven't read Prodigy yet. I heard there's a really frustraaaating cliffhanger so I think I'd just wait 'til the release of Champion this November so I won't have to agonize over it for months :D

Hello Edil! Rainy days are the best times to read Murakami. And you simply cannot go wrong with NW, though I advise you keep a nearby roll of tissue with you Hihi

And just so I wouldn't really go OT here, I'm currently reading A Face Like Glass by Frances Hardinge ^__^

I am liking it. Although the subject is a little sad. I can't help but sort of feel Leonard's pain. I like how its written and the short letters to the future. I haven't read any reviews of the book yet just so I don't get spoiled. But I do have a feeling this book will not end well. LOL

Hi Majuchan! I think perhaps the cutesy cover belies any hint of this book tackling a serious topic like depression. But there are fun and light moments here and there, the ones with Francesca and her group of friends. This is among my favorite Contemporary YAs and I hope you'll enjoy it. And this reminds me to try other Melina Marchetta books soon. :)

A nice rest from reading so much ebooks (I stopped reading 1Q84 ebook version because it's straining my eyes, lol, what do I expect right). Anyway, started reading The Fault... last night and I can't seem to put the book down. If only I don't have to work this morning, I might have finished it already.

TFiOS book will make you weep and weep, until there’s no more weeping left to do and all you’re left with are the characters, story, and beautiful language that will inevitably inspire you to live life and really enjoy every moment. :))

Just finished reading the book a couple of hours ago. True enough, I did cry in various parts especially toward the end. My emotions overpower me. Lol. I can easily say it's a typical sad love story but the concepts about life, oblivion, fear, pain, universe, etc. is just all too grand and heavy. I love it. John Green is not the usual YA fiction writer. He didn't fail my expectations just like with Looking for Alaska and Paper Towns. :)
