I guess I'm the type who goes for fictions :)
Let's see.. out of the top 10 Fictional books, I've read:
(1) Da Vinci Code - by Dan Brown
(6) Angels and Demons - by Dan Brown
(8) Deception Point - by Dan Brown
Hhehehe...
Actually, Deception Point is NOT as good as Digital Fortress, I took ages to read Deception Point.. After immensely enjoying "Angels and Demons" and "Da Vinci Code", Deception Point feels like such a letdown. Hehehe..
Satu pun buku Top 10 Non Fictional tuh I've never read (or even heard of!). Erks.. Does that mean I don't normally have both my feet firmly on the ground?
LOLs... ;D
(eh, Non-Fiction book (10) "Japanese Women Don't Get Old or Fat" sounds interesting laa... hehehhe..)
hope u're feeling better today :) well, at least when u're down and out, you know which books to read! I mean, the top 10 shld be good enuff to leave ur spirits up.
Yam,
I know you love reading Dan Brown's books. Believe it or not, I haven't read a single one of Dan Brown's books. Guilty as charged..
The only book I did manage to read from that top ten list of fictional books is "Memoirs of a Geisha" :-P
Agree, macam interesting kan that Japanese Women book..hehheh, I think that would be in my future shopping list.
Razzle Dazzle,
hey there..nice to see you again here..:)
Feeling much better now.
I might try reading the top ten fictional books but the non fictional ones, hmmm reading the titles itself tells me they are pretty heavy!
my favourite author at the moment is Paulo Coelho....who can forget the ALcHEMIST...and the 'eleven minutes' was very nicely written abt Maria's life and thoughts...
Happy to know u like to read Nour...:)
