Catching up again in Eid Holidays

Loving it after 50%. Now the excitement begins.

Hit the half mark. Getting ready for the showdown now!

when is the action going to take place?!?! I mean I'm so ready for it. too much anticipation happening!!

Chap 1/9 : Done

To DNF or not to DNF? That is the question.

Still can't decide if it's life-changing or just meh to me.

Reading the Audiobook. At x1.3 :P

Loving the narration.

Channel Miller has the power to touch hearts with her writing.

"This person who could never be a role model, at best a cautionary tale.

This part of me had to be severed. I passed all of this mess, these new obstacles, uncertain future, soiled identity, to Emily."

I so badly wanted to DNF but still waddling through it.

I recently watched a lot of clips from the Twilight movie and I'm so into it right now.

I have so many feelings. I can't - I just can't. Words fail me.

Middle is getting boring! All we're getting is an Edward-monologue. Where is all the action?!

Chap 8: Soft Power: Quiet Persistence
1) Westerners value boldness, sociability while Asians value deeper attributes like humility and sensitivity.
2) Asian superstar: perfect example of ambivalence – do well academically and also get themselves noticed.
3) "If I could be better in communication, my work would be more recognized.”
4) Aggressive power beats you up, soft power wins you over.

Chap 7:
1) Extroverts categorized as more reward-seeking as they get a higher buzz from pursuing and achieving their goals than introverts.
2) When a superstar who makes more money says something at the table, the cautious introvert gets ignored.
3) Introvert persistence is more than a match for the extrovert buzz on the playfield.
4) Warren Buffet stayed where he was by not being swayed by his reward-seeking urges

So beautiful! *wipes away a tear* Will read once again when I'm in a relationship.

This is getting so cute! :3 The struggling relationship is healing.

The writing is humorous no doubt but I don't feel connected to the characters.

Still going strong!! I realize now why Twilight was the book to get me in YA Fiction.

Still enjoying it thoroughly. Can't believe I can remember the little bits from so long ago.

The author is a good writer; she just had a way with words. But i'm failing to connect to the character.

Going great so far! The inner conflicting thoughts of Edward's mind are written so I'm enjoying reading it. It hasn't once bored me.

Want to leave it as DNF. Didn't know this was what I signed up for.
