January and February books

The two weeks vacation and a three days stay in the hospital made me catch up with my reading. I was so busy during the Holidays, that I didn't have time to even open these books from their plastics.
I gladly started reading them, I only wished I read size 12 isn't fat first, though being size 14 is something I can relate to. And the insights of Heather Wells are sometimes my insight to. I kinda like the relationship between her landlord, being friends and feeling something for him but he is the brother of your Ex, so something tells you 'He is off limits' is he? I like CSI, Bones and the like so being the crime solving story really interest me. But when I first saw this on the shelf, I thought it is a chic lit, romance kind of thing, didn't thought it was a mystery type of novel. In the middle of the story I dragged myself to finish it because the story got slow for me.
I started reading James Patterson's not action novel books when I read the back cover of "Sunday's At Tiffanys" I enjoyed the story so I thought of reading another book of James Patterson. The mystery of who and what happened to the male main character is a page turner at the same time, I felt the pain this young lady is experiencing how he had broke her heart.
For January, my last book made it to my My Fave list and another series book which I will be buying when the sequel comes out. I like the combination of the Kane siblings and how they compensate each other. Just like Percy Jackson and friends, you will enjoy their journey and adventure, but the Kanes traveled in different countries and taking us to the Egyptian Gods.
Last time I read, the next book will be coming out on May 2011 which I excitedly awaits.

The first book I read for February is from another favorite author but I thought I will never finish this book the first chapters were too technical for me. I imagined my dad enjoying this
book. I also imagined Cotton Malone like other equally famous book character like Alex Cross or Jason Bourne. When I finally grasped the story and characters I can't put the book down anymore and closely would trade to finish this book rather than read through my training handouts.
I thought finally Cotton will have a love life again, but I guess having a busy life and a post retired life is to risky for having a loved one close to him. Who would thought a retired Magellan Billet who chose to sell books will be Cotton Malone novel.

The Reading Challenge

At the start of the year there were two reading challenges I committed myself to The Goodreads Reading Challenge where you will decide how many books you can read for the year. The other one I got from my cousin but upon searching in Google it's a Popsugar Reading Challenge.  I must have underestimated my annual calendar because I challenged my self to red 50 books in Goodreads. I thought "50 books? Oh that's nothing, I have all the time in the world." And guess what? It's mid of November and here's my reading challenge. Apparently I didn't plan on being too busy during mid year but I'm not complaining I just didn't expect it to be like that. Still, I'm happy to I have read 25 books so far. And these are mostly YA books. What's with YA anyway? Am I old to be reading it? But that's another blog entry I suppose. I am happy to discover new authors that I will sure follow (Sarah Haas, Cassandra Rose Clarke) and the likes. With these 2...

How To Be Interesting So That Other Can Envy and Notice You

My whole 32 years of existence, ok, minus the toddler years where I don’t really care; I want to be wanted, desirable, likable and according to Google, to achieve this you must be interesting and as part of my research that’s why  I came across this book. I hunted for this book in the hope that I can get tips so I can be interesting. In the cover it says:   Rule # 1. One must be attractive .  – If you are such a good friend or sister you will tell your mates that its personality that wins. I agree, but for the others to notice you, you must be attractive or else they will not make that second look or  make an effort to get to know you thus you are not given the chance to showcase your great personality. So, yes, a nod to this rule #1. Rule #2. One must be friends with other attractive people – Ever heard of the saying “Tell me who your friends are and I tell you who you are”? Now that you’re attractive do not stop there and make friends ...

Rediscovering what sparks joy

Hi, if there's really anyone reading this blog. I kept this blog open more of a open diary and realized that writing is form of therapy for me. For all those bottled up feeling that I couldn't express. The last blog post I did was 2019 that I started a vlog in YouTube, sadly that vlog is no longer existing. I could make up excuses as to why but its really one complicated reason, which could be for another blog post. I was going to write that its been a year since I last posted but and then realized that its 2022 now, well it could be a year if we don't really count 2020.  Since moving to the States five years ago (2020 counted here), I was busy trying to make my family and I's life better, financially more or less, ok more so I was really busy with work and making more money. Unconsciously trying to fulfill the wants that I couldn't afford. In the process, I forgot what would make me happy. At the rise of tiktok I have discovered posts that intrigued my curiosity. I...
