I haven't read the book but everyone talks about it. It's a true story right? Isn't the author the "child"? Yeah but I heard it was extremely sad as well.

I'm currently reading "Garden Spells." Then I'm not sure what I'm going to read next...

Confessions of Georgia Nicholson by Louise Rennison

A fun read, without any meanings of life to ponder over, except the age old question: where the heck is the perfect man?
the protagonist is spoiled, self-centered, bratty, shallow, selfish, and vain�it's fantastic

Battle Royale by Koushum Takami
Uncle Tom's Cabin by Harriet Beecher Stowe

"Surely there is something in the unruffled calm of nature that overawes our little anxieties and doubts;
the sight of the deep-blue sky and the clustering stars above seems to impart a quiet to the mind."

Ughh reading Twilight because everyone is making such a huuge deal about it. So far, it's okay. I can see why the girls drool over Edward. But seriously... It's so darn SAPPY. And the writing style is so AMATEUR. It's a good teen book, but that's as far as it gets.

Life of Pi by Yann Martel - I'm gonna start reading this tomorrow morning. I just recently finished 'True Believer' by Nicholas Sparks. It was the first N.S novel that I've ready and I guess it's pretty much the same as other love stories I've come across. The good thing about it is it's not that cheesy which I expected from a Nicholas Sparks book. He is known for his romance stories after all. =p

Ahhh I had to read Life of Pi for my uni course. It was one of the more interesting ones I read.

Across the Nightingale floor by Lian Hearn

I love this series, though she does put a tad too much useless description in in the later books.

I like reading Jodi's books, though after a while they all start sounding the same. :S

I completely agree with you on that. It reminds me of a fanfic. And there are some obvious gaps in the story, hence the story didn't really flow.

On that note, Memoirs of a Geisha - Arthur Golden. Never fails to intrigue me.
