After a looooong hiatus, I am back to reading! And would you believe it’s with something I’ve been wanting to read since August! This book has been with me for a really long time now, since I bought the three books from Bookchor last year…! And out of the three books I bought, I’ve managed to read only two. There just seemed so many other books to read before then 😛

World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War by Max Brooks
I wanted to like this book, I really did. But it just wasn’t meant to be.
Born a Crime: Stories From a South African Childhood by Trevor Noah
I rarely read autobiographies (or even biographies), but I’m so glad I read this one! Someone suggested this to me, and after a month of deliberating, I bought it.
The Time Traveler’s Wife by Audrey Niffenegger
Here it is. I’ve finally managed to finish reading this book! And it was not easy!
The Unexpected Guest by Charles Osborne, Agatha Christie
It has been at least 15 years (although it is most probably much more than that) since I first started reading Agatha Christie. You would assume I would be bored of her writing by now. But, no, not at all. In fact, she continues to amuse and surprise me to this day. I guess I will just never grow out of her writing!
I’ll Walk Alone (Alvirah and Willy #8) by Mary Higgins Clark
Oh my god, such a ridiculous book! I might just never read another novel by Mary Higgins Clark again!
Lost in Temptation (Regency Chase #1) by Lauren Royal
After the children’s book The Diary of a Wimpy Kid, here’s something that’s definitely adult. Technically, I finished this first, but I just got around to writing about this later. Probably because I enjoyed The Diary more than I enjoyed this one.
Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami [Philip Gabriel (translator)]
Murakami is one of those authors you always hear about, either in praises by other people or in people’s to-read lists. And so, Murakami was added to my to-read list, just so I could find out what the hype is all about. I knew it wasn’t going to be a straightforward story or a simple subject, but boy did I underestimate the amount of metaphor and surrealism!
Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro
Such a long time taken to finish this novel… Such a long time that I felt like I was the narrator herself.
The Viscount’s Wallflower Bride by Lauren Royal and Devon Royal
It has been a while…
I’m getting back to reading slowly. I did try a lot of other novels, but I seem to have lost patience for stories where the lead characters just jump each other without really having a conversation first. So here we are… a “SWEET & CLEAN” romance. I didn’t think of this phrase, the authors did.
