I'm maxed out!

Hello!
I've been down memory lane and without a doubt, I enjoyed it!
Don't you just love being in Becky's world? I wish I could just jump into the book and live happily ever after ( I know, I should snap out of it!).
Minnie Brandon! Hee hee.
Dear sweet little shopaholic, I love you!
Wait, I love Becky more!
NO! I love Luke! Shhh.
Oh, sod it. I love every single one of them!

So, I've got nothing to read now. Not even a new book. Sob.
Guess what? I'm reading The Secret Dreamworld Of A Shopaholic... AGAIN!
And I never get bored of it. I don't know why though. The storyline doesn't seem sublime to me!

Fab news!
The cover for The Single Girl's To-do List is out and I love it to bits!
It's gorgeous, but I Heart Paris' cover is prettier!
I can't wait. Seriously, I wish tomorrow's June 9th!




Isn't it G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S?

The Bloomwood Way!

Bonjour!
I just finished reading The Secret Dreamworld Of A Shopaholic this morning at 2! Though I feel extremely exhausted, I feel bloody well!
It has been 3 times I've read it and it never fails to deliver the sweet nostalgic feeling!

I'm sure every Tom, Dick and Harry knows how the story goes. It's as if you don't know, I might as well shoot you down at dawn!


Name : Rebecca Bloomwood
Occupation : Financial Journalist
Status : Currently in debt

And the story goes on and on, from being a crap financial journalist who completes her articles based on press packs to the approachable meets girl-next-door financial guru on The Morning Coffee!
Definitely 10/10!
 
Sophie Kinsella never disappoints us lovely readers.
I'll be waiting to read on Becky's adventure in LA!

Retail therapy!

Allo!
I've finally finished Marian Keyes's Brightest Star in The Sky!
And I loved it! Not as much as I love the Shopaholic series, but it was brilliant! The story revolves around the tenants living in a flat, 66th Star Street.
There's Katie, who's forty and miserable in life, anxious to tie the knot with her workaholic boyfriend, Conall.
Then the floor below, there's Lydia, a cabbie in her twenties, with a feisty personality, sharing her flat with two Poles, Andrei and Jan.
The flat below, Jemima, eighty-eight years of age with her lovable, furry companion, Grudge ( weird name, right? ).
And lastly, Matt and Maeve, the "perfect" couple, with the same routine everyday. They spend their nights watching uninteresting TV programmes and snuggling on the couch.
Overall, I think it's worth the read, albeit the storyline's a tad too long.
8/10 :)

Allo!

Thank God my exams are over! But on the downside, the ACTUAL one's in November. Sob. Who on God's green earth likes exams? Oh, God.
Exams are torturous!

Anyway, I've bought my first ever novel from Marian Keyes!
Ha! It's The Brightest Star in The Sky and I love it. Well, I'm still in Day 60. Sob. Mind you, I was busy with school and exams and all.
So, by the time I'm done with it, I shall review it for you, shan't I? :)

By the way, I'm on a total craze for Gossip Girl!
Actually, Gossip Girl : The Carlyles to be exact. Gosh, Owen sounds like a total Adonis-like stud and Avery's soooooo HAWT! So far, I've read the first one and I've borrowed the second and third from my school's (shitty) library.
Hmmmm. The holidays are coming, can't wait!
Though there's no real fun to it when you're grounded at home. Sob.

You know you love me,
xoxo

Err.. Should I go for..?

Oh, crap.
I'm torn between Mia and Milly.
WHY WHY WHY?
I've been loving Mia until I thought back on The Wedding Girl.
ASS-HEJH-AI-TEE!

Whatever then. It's still the early days. I've only got the plot and storyline.
Not getting my hopes high because I'm incomparable to Sophie Kinsella and Lindsey Kelk and Meg Cabot and Marian Keyes and Emily Giffin and the list goes on and on.
I've been looking for writing courses but so far, zero result. Sob.

But this year, Something Borrowed will hit the cinemas in May!
I can't wait. Partly because Kate Hudson's portraying Darcy :)
Besides, I have enough time to read it first.
I do hope 2011 will be better than last year.
Fingers crossed!

ARGHH..

This is a very, very shit time to buy myself books.
This is a very, very, very shit time.

I've been to MPH more than thrice and they don't seem to restock the books.
ESPECIALLY the CHICK LIT/FICTION section.
Seriously, what the hell?
I've seriously gone cold turkey. Without buying a novel for me is like, "Rebecca Bloomwood not shopping!".
Do you know how severe this is?
Either they restock or I'll send myself to the loony bin.

Meanwhile, I've been busy with my "novel", as you can call it that, albeit the chance of it being published is zero to one.
I've decided on my heroine's name!
Mia! Isn't she such an angel? :)
It's a cross between Becky Bloomwood and Angela Clark!

OH!
I forgot!
Lindsey Kelk's releasing a new novel in June!
It's called A Single Girl's To-Do List and I'm seriously excited!
Though the cover is yet to be released, I'm already on my toes for it!
Besides, since Lindsey Kelk is my dear friend. Not in a stalk-ish way, but yeah! She remembers me from Facebook and we've exchanged e-mails a few times!
AND SHE'S AWESOME!
I've even made friends with Chick Lit Club's Angela Smith!
Here's to you, babe! :)

SHOP SHOP SHOP!

HELLO!
There's nothing better to do than reading Mini Shopaholic for the third time!
Though it was pricier than other novels I've bought last year, but after reading it for so many times, I think it's worth it because it'll pay for itself and I was right!

OMG. Borders is filing for bankruptcy!
One of the leading bookstores in the world is about to fold!
This can't be, right? I bet someone behind is pulling some strings or something.

Rambling .. again!

Well, it turns out, having finishing I Heart Paris in less than a week, I read I Heart Hollywood too! OK, I'm on a craze on chick lit ( since when am I not? ).
So sorry for not blogging. It's been a hectic week and having my aunt back was a blessing!


I wish James Jacobs was real. I mean, wouldn't he be a hot cake for all women but it turns out he's actually gay with his agent, Blake who's a total arse. Being in LA, Angela appeared on gossip websites and magazines for the wrong reason. It turns out the paps think Angie's found a new man. Seriously? On the contrary, Jenny's been really distant and the trust between Angie and Alex has been falling apart. But after Alex's surprise visit to LA, everything turned back to normal. Thank God. Loved it somehow, no wonder Chick Lit Club rated it a 9 out of 10! Superb read!
