Books-to-Be-Read

I'm planning on reading Murakami books. They're quite intriguing.
And I'm also looking for Carson McCuller's The Heart is a Lonely Hunter.
There are still some Paolo Coelho books left for me to read, but not today. I don't feel like reading love stories 'coz I suck at love. lol.

Extra! Extra!

Le Vampire is looking for a good read, 'coz she ran out of books-to-be-read. Suggestions anyone?

Ecstatic

I'm beginning to love the book I'm reading. It excites me. Because of that book, I had to refresh on Geography and a bit of European History so that I could understand it more. Geography and History, ooh, I love the topics!

My Apologies

I have been so busy lately that I forgot that a book was quietly waiting for me to read it. Finally, I got sick. I have time to spare now. Maybe I can finish the book now. And I take back what I've said last time. The book is not boring, or I'm just sick.

Question

Is it just because I don't feel like reading or this book is sorta kinda boring?!

My Bob Ong Books

Thanks to a colleague/friend-o-mine, I was introduced into Bob Ong's world. After reading a book of his (Stainless Longganisa-which happened to be my first Bob Ong book), I became an instant fan. As of the moment, I am close to owning all six of his books ( I have 3, half is close right?!) Anyway, his latest book(MacArthur), I found "da bomb"(hell, the ending made me cry!) I haven't read a lot of books in tagalog. I've only read Filipino books used from kinder to college, though some, I did not finish, and the 3 Bob Ong books that I have.

Dear Mr. Jose Rizal,

I am sorry that I am not much of a fan of Filipino authors. I promise to read more books especially the ones in tagalog. But not the tagalog romance novels, please no. I don't even like Mills and Boons and other books of the same genre so please do not make me read them.

Hoping for your kind consideration.
Thank you.

Respectfully yours,
YIGAE

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy

"Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky

Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,

Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die

One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

In the Land of Mordor where Shadows lie.

One Ring to rile them all, One Ring to find them

One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them

In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie."

One of the best books that I have read is The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. I also had to re-read some of the pages since I found some words hard to understand. I especially like the Elven language. It fascinated me. I remember a statement made by Legolas. "Natha dhaga thaya!" It meant, "they will all die!" It was good that I did not settle for merely watching the movie. The novel actually had more to offer. If you found the movie superb, wait 'til you read the books.
