PURPLE QUEEN FAIRY READS

As at this time tomorrow, I am a 'free being' :) I would have submitted my assignments and with no examinations this semester, I am officially done for this semester. * doing the happy dance *. It's a pretty tough semester with much distractions but come what may, I did my best. I will thus start my book marathon.   I started it last year and I thought it would be interesting to continue it this year.  The thought of dedicating a whole month to reading sounds very appealing. Having said that, I still have a lot (and I mean, a lot) of other commitments so I really do not know how I will do but for this marathon but let's just give it a go and evaluate from there. I have also kinda identify the following titles to take part in my marathon : Death In Holy Orders by P.D. James - been in my shelf long enough Take A Look At Me Now by Miranda Dickinson - didn't make it to my recent gateaway Dark Places by Gillian Flynn - ditto The Copper Beach

In fact, I wasn't able to really make any plans at all as my time depended on some external schedule which I can only know for sure pretty recently. Thus I can only make short weekend plans as and when I am able to and this trip would most probably be the last weekend gateaway for the year but if possible, I might squeeze in another trip to the capital city. This time round is just a flight away to the lion city as a reward for the princess after a hard fought public examination. Initially, we were supposed to travel to Osaka but due to some circumstances I wasn't able to bring her to the land of the rising sun this year so a short couple of days trip to somewhere nearer would have to do for now. We are pretty excited as we have not travel just the two of us for quite a while and to be honest, she has no idea where we are going as

Synopsis : After serving out a year of hard labor in the salt mines of Endovier for her crimes, 18-year-old assassin Celaena Sardothien is dragged before the Crown Prince. Prince Dorian offers her her freedom on one condition: she must act as his champion in a competition to find a new royal assassin. Her opponents are men-thieves and assassins and warriors from across the empire, each sponsored by a member of the king's council. If she beats her opponents in a series of eliminations, she'll serve the kingdom for four years and then be granted her freedom. Celaena finds her training sessions with the captain of the guard, Westfall, challenging and exhilarating. But she's bored stiff by court life. Things get a little more interesting when the prince starts to show interest in her ... but it's the gruff Captain Westfall who seems to understand her best. Then one of the other contestants turns up dead ... quickly followed by another. Can Celaena figure out who the ki

Recently, I posted on Sidney Sheldon's Rage of Angel that I just read and I mentioned that it was a gift from a relative. Actually, my aunt gave me more than just one book....she gave me a few and I thought I'll share them with you here. Yes, they are all Sidney Sheldon's title and they are all double titles copies.  Needless to say, I have read all these titles and some of them even a few times with I f Tomorrow Comes being a long time favourite and Windmills of the Gods  both of which I re-read a few years ago and even Nothing Last Forever which I just re-read last year is here as well. These are all keepers and I am sure I would want to re-read them again in the near future. Thank you aunty CK for remembering my love for reading and thank you for these wonderful books.  Much love to you. On the other hand, although I didn't buy them, these books does add on to my collections and I need to rearrange my collections on my shelves once again
