PURPLE QUEEN FAIRY READS

Synopsis : Bergdorf Blondes are a thing, you know, a New York craze.  Absolutely everyone wants to be one, but it's tres difficult.  You wouldn't believe the dedication it takes to be a gorgeous, flaxen-haired, dermatologically perfect New York girl with a life that's fabulous beyond belief.  Honestly, it requires a level of commitment compatible to, say, learning hebrew or quitting cigarettes. Introducing moi : a champagne bubble of a girl about town, working at being a princess by day and by night on the prowl for that elusive, must-have accessory every girl simply demands - an impossibly rich fiance. This is your typical, brainless read.  A fantastic book to chill an afternoon away and be transported to the world of rich, young New York girl about town.  You can both be envious and snigger at their life style and generally be amused and entertained in a zombiefied way. There's this girl who's narrating the story but you don't get to know her name co...

for Popular to have it's warehouse sales. The last one was held in November last year .  The family went on the 1st day and while we had a great time shopping for books, we were zonked by the crowd. For this year, it will start on the 1st day of school holiday which also happens to be a public holiday, i.e. 24th May but we won't be going due to a prior commitment.  It will probably end on 2nd June and we might probably go then. Forever young carrot head Someone I know will be hunting for these as it's quite reasonable and sometimes they have this 'buy 2 get one 1 free offer' so it can be more than quite reasonable.  I used to enjoy these too :)  I'm ok for her to read Archie as she reads these (but not limited to)  too so it's rather balanced as far as I'm concerned. (except for my purse!) The mouse, the fairy and the whatever As for me, I bought these at the last sales and have read them except for The Circle by Ted Dekker.  I have be...

Photo taken by Green Heights Mall Management I took part in a flea market sales recently.  It was held in a mall that's located in a residential area away from the city.  There were not many vendors and I was the only one selling novels, books for children, readers digest, etc.   The rest of the vendors were selling household items, fashion accessories, clothes, action figures, etc. The princess and I brought 80 books to be sold. These do not include the readers digest which I have about 50 copies or so. While the sale for my novels wasn't very good, the sales for the princess's kiddy books went extremely well.  She managed to sell off books that she doesn't read anymore for RM2 to RM5 per copy.  As she really loves her stuff, the books are all in very good conditions.  Over at my end, sales was very slow.  I sold off less than 15 books which is way less than my first sales . I said good bye too Anansi Boys .  I also sold off...

Synopsis : HE HAD TO FACE THE TOUGHEST JOB OF HIS LIFE. AND HE NEVER ONCE THOUGHT HE'D BE ON HIS OWN.   Harry had it all : a beautiful wife, an adorable four-year-old son, and a high-paying media job. But on the eve of his thirtieth birthday, with one irresponsible act, he threw it all away. Suddenly he finds himself an unemployed single father trying to figure out how to wash his son's hair the way Mommy did and whether green spaghetti is proper breakfast food. This brilliantly engaging novel will tug at your heart as Harry learns to become a father to his son and a son to his aging father, takes stabs at finding new love, and makes the hardest decision of his life. There is a mystery here. It's concerning where has my book disappeared to. I brought the book out with me to mum's place and I remember very clearly that I put the book into my handbag.  When I reached home, the book was not there.  I thought maybe I left it behind where I was at since ...

Synopsis : Years ago, after their blood brother ritual, Gage, Fox and Caleb emerged from the woods, each with a piece of bloodstone.  Now, it will become their weapon in the final fight against the demon they awakened.   Shared nightmares, visions of blood and fire and random violence plague the long time friends and Quinn, Layla and Cybil, the women bound to them by fate.  None of them can ignore the fact that, this year, the demon has grown stronger - feeding off the terror it creates.  But now the three pieces of the bloodstone have been fused back together.  If only they could figure out how to use it. A gambling man like Gage has no trouble betting on his crew to find a way.  And though he and Cybil share the gift of seeing the future, that's all they have in common.  Were they to take their flirtation to the next level, it would be on their own terms, not because Fate decreed it.  But Gage knows that a woman like Cybil - with he...
