Book Haul

Hey guys,

So the Big Bad Wolf Sale 2014 finally happened! And I gladly took the opportunity to visit my first loves, books of course. The boyfriend, my sister and I went to MIECC together by public transport. And I'm telling you travelling by Komuter as well as walking to the destination, was very much worth it. Anything for books I say!

After 3 hours of browsing, I finally decided on these books. They are Jodi Picoult's Vanishing Acts, Agatha Christie's Mystery Collection, Thomas Enger's Scarred, The Memory of Love by Aminatta Forna, The Mammoth Book of Best British Mysteries and lastly, Stephen King's 3-in-1 Novels (Carrie, Salem's Lot and The Shining). 

Damn, the books were affordable and cheap. I bought these all for less than RM60! Truly a great bargain right? Unfortunately I was not allowed to purchase more books by my mum as she wanted me to concentrate on my studies instead. She knows when I start reading, the world will cease to exist around me and she doesn't want that. Hehe. 

Interesting fact; there were over 4 MILLION books on sale that day! I wish I could buy them all! Sadly, I'm not earning and I had to use my savings to purchase them. One day, I will be those people who brings their suitcases to events like this! Heh. 

Also, the books were ranged from RM8 to RM30. The books that were priced much higher came in boxed sets or a few books compiled in a single book. 

And Thomas Enger's Scarred is the sequel to Pierced which I did a review on here.

I think this sale is the best book sale in Malaysia as there were many sections available for people who have no interest in purchasing fictional books. There were sections for non-fiction books, books for children and toddlers, puzzles, cook-books, self-help books and even joke books. 

I can''t wait for the next sale already although I haven't read all the books. Yet. 

I will blog reviews of these books soon!

Back after Ages!!

Hey guys,

Truly sorry for being absent for 5 months! Been so busy with uni life (assignments, quizzes and finals), as well as visits from relatives during my term break. I just didn't have the energy to blog even when I had some free time, as I really just wanted to sit down and relax with a good book. Plus I was too busy bonding with my family.. teehee.

I'm in second semester now! I'm finally doing my degree in Psychology and well I'm pretty psych about it! Even if I'm still learning the basics, I'm enjoying what I've been learning.

And I'm pretty proud of myself for obtaining good results. Though it wasn't a 4 flat grade or whatever, a grade below that is pretty good, and now I know I actually have the capabilities of achieving so much more :)

I will try to update as much as I can, as soon as possible of course. It's only the first week of the semester, and I'm already bogged down with assignments. Sheesh.

That's all for now!
