Preview - May 2015 Flea Market



There is something charming and sweet about May.  While January is hopeful and dreamy, February is in a hurry, March and April are all about work, come May, I can just relax a bit and have a cup of coffee and put my feet up (I hope I am not jinxing it by saying so!)

Jinx no jinx, I am now preparing for this coming weekend to put my collection out in the market again.  I only made it partially during the March market and didn't go at all to the April market.  If I am to achieve the objectives I have set out where my book sale is concerned, I would need to make it for the May flea market which is happening this weekend in Green Heights Mall.
 

These are quite recent read, whose reviews are coming right up.  There's Kaitlyn by Kevin Lewis which is about a girl growing up in the wrong side of the city.  The Immigrant by Manju Kapur is a story of an Indian bride/wife through arranged marriage who found herself halfway across the world in Canada.  Standing in the Rainbow by Fannie Flagg is a charming story of middle class American in a small town at an era where rock and roll rules and where everyone knows everyone.  Blood Storm by Colin Forbes which is a crime thriller out to thrill.

There's quite a few books that didn't get sold during the March flea market so I would be bringing them too.


These educational books for kids are quite good too so they would come along to the sales as well.


I will also be bringing some Christian books like these here which are pretty brand new copies and excellent for personal collection or as a gift to someone.

So, if you have the time, drop by Green Heights Mall either on Saturday or Sunday and I shall see you there.

An Original Work of Fiction - A Battle Lost and Won

A battle lost and won I’ve loved and lost I’ve loved and won Such is the conclusion I came to in my battle in this simple but  complicated feelings called love. Going back in time to more than twenty odd years ago seems like a lifetime away  but yet, feels also just like yesterday I’ve loved hard and deep and when I let go of that love, I thought my world ended Well, I was wrong.   My world didn’t end.  It was a chapter of my life that came to an end and since then I  have written many more chapters. But time and again, I find myself revisiting that time The time when I thought I’ve loved and lost I was twenty four and he was thirty one I was young and naïve and he was the man of the world I was intrigued by him, he was captivated by me The girl who drank Jack Daniels and knew about war aircrafts  and read about espionages. He introduced me to stuff unknown to me and taught me golf and how to have conf...

Birthright by Nora Roberts

Image
Synopsis : When 5,000-year-old human bones are found at a construction site in the small town of Woodsboro, the news draws archaeologist Callie Dunbrook out of her sabbatical and into a whirlwind of adventure, danger and romance. While overseeing the dig, she must try to make sense of a cloud of death and misfortune that hangs over the project – fueling rumours that the site is cursed. She must also cope with the presence of her irritating – but irresistible – ex-husband, Jake. And when a stranger claims to know a secret about her privileged Boston childhood, she must question her own past as well. If you are familiar with Nora Roberts works such as Montana Sky, Carolina Moon, Angels Fall , then you would have an idea the type of story she turns out.

Callie is the heroine and the story revolves around her with murders, arson, etc. ...
