A Suggestion of Death by Marianne Wesson

Image
I started this book during my weekend gateaway end of last month and it's only now that I managed to complete it.  It has been a long laborious read with plenty of distraction in between and a couple of assignments to complete which I did and submitted just today itself! A Suggestion of Death is a legal term.  Quoting from  Wikipedia, in  law, it refers to calling the  death  of a party to the attention of a court and making it a matter of record, as a step in the revival of an action abated by the  death  of a party. In the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, it is governed by Fed. I never knew that. Glad I learn something new just from the title.  I thought it's about murder! And reading the book, I was like wondering when is the murder going to take place and who is being killed off! hahah...talk about being off the mark! Anyway, A Suggestion of Death isn't really that great of a book.   It was just entertaining enough without being boring and there is a myster

Book Purchase #2 - June 2018

Image
This post is to keep track of books that I purchase this year.  However, it excludes books purchase for the princess which is for her to keep track..not me. Happy Potter and The Deathly Hallows is the second book that I purchased this year.  I bought it as a pre-loved copy from a very nice lady from KL.  The book cost me RM8.  It's in hardcover in relatively good condition. As we were not able to synchronize our time for a meet up, I asked her to post to me.  Needless to say the postage cost more than the book! But still, it's a nice addition to my collection...this would be the third title that I have in the whole set so I have four titles more to go and each titles has to be this particular publication.  I guess when my collection is complete, I will share them with you. So, welcome Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows to my family of books.  Your new home would be my shelf where you will stay unread but much love...hahah... Book purchase #1 is here .

My Visit to the Big Bad Wolf Sales July 2018

Early this month the princess and I made plans to drop by the BBW Sales one of the weekdays. However, it was a super busy work week for me that particular week and there are official dinners being planned for a few of the evenings and that particular evening was not spared.  I was very much conflicted as I am accountable and committed to work but at the same time, I am accountable and committed to a promise made. AT the end of the day, I decided that I have been neglecting and not been spending much time with her for the past weeks and so I choose to keep to my promise. Off we went after dinner to the much anticipated BBW Sales in Borneo 744. It wasn't difficult to find with the help of Waze even though it's practically in the middle of no-where.  As the BBW sales is part of the Rainforest Fringe Festival, there were other events happening at the same venue but the night we went, the events were mostly over so it was rather quiet.  Everyone that were there were ju
