Lucky Man: A Memoir by Michael J. Fox

this is what i'm currently reading.  it's another one of my bookcrossing finds and i'm enjoying reading it.

Bitter Sweets by Roopa Farooki

i finished reading the last book and have just started reading this book last night.

Shopaholic & Baby by Sophie Kinsella

this is what i'm reading at the moment.

i started the book three days ago and am now at the last few pages.

truth be told, this is the first of the shopaholic series that i have ever read.  i bought this book eons ago and have only picked it up to read now.

it's been under the piles of my other books to be read and i almost forgot that i even had it until that day that i was going through my books for something to read.

true to sophie kinsella's style of writing, it is a light humourous read.

Cleo by Helen Brown

I'm currently reading Cleo by Helen Brown. It's about a kitten who changes the lives of the family members who adopts her.Certainly a must read for cat people :)

A Friend of the Family by Lisa Jewell

I finished reading this book on Saturday.

my current read

i'm currently reading the journal of mortifying moments...it's hilarious and i'm enjoying it  :)

The Memory Keeper's Daughter by Kim Edwards

i finished the last book over the weekend and this is now what i'm reading.  the first few pages is intriguing, i must say.

 i found myself taking that extra 5 minutes to read in bed this morning only to find the extra 5 minutes turn into an extra 30 minutes (horrors!).

my current read

i finished reading The Piano Teacher today and am now on my next book, the Chinese Whispers.

my current read

i finished reading A Thousand Splendid Suns last night and this is my current read...

A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini

...and this is my current read. I started reading it today.

It's by the same author as The Kite Runner. I bought both books in the same warehouse sale.

The Lost Diaries of Andrian Mole 1999- 2001

Actually, I finished reading this book a few weeks ago. It took me quite awhile to finish reading it. I guess it's just not my kind of book but hey, this is my first attempt with any of the Adrian Mole series books.

my current read

i'm reading this book at the moment.

2010

yup, another year and another list of new author reads and to start it off is this one that i just finished reading a few days ago.

this one is not really my genre of choice --- kind of harry potter-ish.  i picked this one up from the bookcrossing zone. 

what i found interesting about this book is that its characters are based on real people as well as mythology.

If You Could See Me Now by Cecilia Ahern

i finished reading this book over the last weekend.  think about falling in love with someone that nobody else can see --- your imaginary friend!!!  okay, so we all know that imaginary friends don't exist but hey, it's an idea and makes a nice story to curl up in bed and read.

31 Dream Street by Lisa Jewell

started reading this a few days ago and am just about to finish reading it today  :)  time to think about my next read!

Does My Head Look Big In This? by Randa Abdel-Fattah

this is my current read. picked this one up at the recent big bad wolf warehouse sale.

it's about a sixteen year old australian-palestinian-muslim girl's experience with starting to wear the hijab and at the same time, still being a teenager.

my current read

this book which i finished reading a few days ago does a good job at reminding me to be thankful for the things that do go right in my life. 

when i really think about it, there are waayyyy more things that go right in my life than those that go wrong.  we tend to focus on what is going wrong so much most times that we lose focus on the things that do go right and have been going right in our lives.

this book reminds me to be thankful to Allah for all that is happening to me... there is a bigger plan for us all though we may not know it at the time that it is happening to us.

my current read

i know this sounds sooo weird but would you believe it that i've never read dahl before?  uh huh, true... don't ask me why and so, this is my introduction to dahl.

got this one at the recent pearsons sale.

i didn't know that dahl wrote for adults as well.  i've read five of the thirteen stories in this book so far and i like them.  i guess better late than never, huh?

my current read

and this is my current read...

and yes, this is another one of my warehouse sale finds :)
