I Finally Found It - The Prisoner of Heaven by Carlos Ruiz Zafon


If you have read my post here and here, you would have known that I have been searching for this title for quite a while and 'quite a while' here is defined as years.

Being a title which I just seems to be unable to get my hands on, it was such a surprise to have it landed on my lap about a month ago.  However, it was in a rather huge box together with just about 30 other titles so I wasn't aware if it's existence.

It was only today that I had time to sort out the box and imagine my surprise to fish this out of the box.

Yes, I guess you can say it's my Easter Present :)

More story about the other titles from the box another time. For now I am just so happy to have this whole set in my collection.

p.s. I have not been reading for a while.  Will attempt to catch up soon. 

 In the meantime...

HAPPY EASTER!

He introduced me to stuff unknown to me and taught me golf and how to have confidence in myself The girl
