I MUST HAVE IT!

OK, I know this is crazy, but what the hell? Since when am I not?
So, I'm planning to get I Heart New York! Yes, the US edition! Isn't it wild?
Oh, the thought of it makes my stomach flip in excitement!
The cover is soooo fab! I want it.
In Borders, it's 56.70, but if I buy on Book Depository, it's only 36!
Isn't life sweet?
Ooh, let's appreciate the gorgeous cover...

20 years.. 2 people..

I have to say, never have I found such a compelling, touching book. One Day was very uplifting, Emma and Dex were very lovable, David Nicholls has cleverly crafted this amazingly readable.

For once it was the only book that isn't chick lit that I've enjoyed.

Clearly, David Nicholls has a kind of magic to even attract my attention of such a delightful but at the same time heartbreaking novel.

Not to spoil anyone's surprise but it was really sad at the end. Yes, sorry for killing the suspense, but I'm sure everyone knows there's ought to be tragedy, right? Whether in life or just a book.

I don't want it to end!

I just don't want it to end. It's lovely and for the first time, I'm actually enjoying something besides chick lit. It's just overwhelming me. It makes me think of all the great things in life, like your parents' love, your old friends who still cherish you.
I'm pretty sure One Day will influence my writing from now on. I've even decided that my heroine will have some of Emma Morley in her!
I'll update when I'm done with this amazingly uplifting book!

One Day, it was yesterday

Guess what? I've bought it. Yes. Come on, the title says it all, doesn't it?
Yes, I bought One Day yesterday at MPH's store wide book sale. 20% off. I know it's not much, but yes. Saving up to buy it was pretty hard. I had to live off coins and pennies. But I know it's worth it, though I'm broke. Seriously broke except for a few pennies left in my wallet.
Anyway, let's focus on things at hand here, shall we?
I'm sure everyone knows One Day has been made into a film, starring Anne Hathaway as Emma and Jim Sturgess as Dexter. I can't wait to watch it as it will be releasing some time around my birthday! I'm literally on tenterhooks here!
I've started with One Day and I'm completely in love with Em and Dex.
I'll keep you posted on my progress!
Much love.

Ellie Andrews, my dear friend

I loved it.
Yes! Ellie Andrews Has Second Thought was lovely. I adored Ellie's funny remarks. She's like a walking disaster zone!
It's about Ellie, the youngest of the Amazing Andrews, who turned down her long term boyfriend/boss, Rupert, then when she thought her life was over, in comes Marcus Lacey, massive playboy who is loaded. Yes, he's the MP. What's an MP?
Never mind, he was a bloody slag. He "fell in love" with Ellie just to get news on Sam's (Ellie's best friend) protest in Ethy Woods. So, whatever.
Poor Ellie then went for her long-term crush since high school, Jay, who is Sam's brother.
Then she finds out that Jay is engaged to a manipulative psycho bitch model, Roxy who lies about her bloody pregnancy. Cow.
So Ellie soon meets Xander, the perfect guy. Loaded. Good looking. Superstar.
But she realizes who she wants to marry.
It was a mystery to all readers who she'll be walking down the aisle with.
It was great, funny and I didn't want it to end!
Lovely story. Now I'm tempted to buy Katy Carter Wants A Hero.
Bugger, Ruth. You are mean.

Kevin has NO second thoughts!

Yes, I bought it.
I emailed Ruth Saberton, telling her that I shall be buying Ellie Andrews Has Second Thoughts because I loved reading the first chapter.
Yeah, I hadn't had second thoughts when I sashayed into the book store and grabbed a copy and headed to the till.
And yes, I have it next to me now, perfectly (hopefully) wrapped.
I will be reading it tonight. Yes, that is what I will be doing.
Thank you, Ruth Saberton. And God, thank You for letting me buy it.

The particular sadness of Aimee Bender

Honestly, I didn't fully understand The Particular Sadness of Lemon Cake.
Either Rose is very peculiar and odd or she has a very mature outlook in life. I just couldn't relate to her.
She seems like a poor tortured soul.
Her brother is weird, glum and downright rude.
Her mother is a two-timing cow who likes her boss.
Her father is inconspicuous and blur at all times.
The point is, it's not really chick lit to me. She doesn't find true love.
All her conflict revolves around her dull family.
Sorry, Sarah Page of Random House UK, but I don't mean to be such an ungrateful cow, it's just that, it's not what I've expected.
Rose is maybe a bit too bitter for me as I prefer a particular sweetness and tangy taste of lemon.
