kukuanga said...

almost finish the books. saya baca mengikut urutan;
angela's ashes
plain truth
to kill a mockingbird
man and boy
harvesting the heart
perfect match (now im too stuffed with picoult, I read just few pages and read the ending chapter, no more picoult this few months!)

ya. to kill a mockingbird, a brilliant book huhh. ko tau, rasa mcm balik masa budak2 masa tgk katun tom sawyer. sia baca 1 go. high probability akan re-read.

next is edgar sawtelle. (after few books, kinda hoping, ive got a tv and an astro)

ahh..to kill a mockingbird... i always smile when people mention the book by harper lee in their blog or IRL. its a good book. one of the best book i ever read.

maybe sa pun mo beli ipad. i knw n i love the feeling of papers in my hand, tapi since sa 'terbiasa' suda mendonlod ebook pii handphone, sa pandai malas suda bwa2 buku dlm beg.

stieg larsson punya 'the girl...' belum baca, tapi dlm list juga.

kukuanga said...

pong, edgar sawtelle should be read palan2.. muahahhahaha.. best kan tu To kill a Mockingbird?

i have nothing against TV. what i dont really like is TV habit, as i tend to forget about everything when i watch TV. so, no, no TV, no cable. i'm buying broadband modem for my birthday. yay!

jen.. hahaha on the ipad idea.

mell.. oi! lama ko tiak datang menjenguk!

spent the whole day baca the story of Edgar Sawtelle, only paused to go to the toilet, makan and cried when the father died (not the fact that he died, but on Edgar's helplessness..sungguh bikin menangis bila dia smashed tu telepon reciever).

I re-read the last few pages to make sure I got it right, and flipping after page 640 only to find the acknowledgement! cisss!! apa punya cerita!!

hurmm..but then, what's a better ending?(I will be dreaming the boy and his dogs tonight)

kukuanga said...

then, you should read East of Eden

pasal tu Edgar, napa tiak kena ajar morse code ar? (the author = software programmer)

jenkays said...

adoyaiii...! i want to catch up on the readings..!! can i have the ipad for Christmas..! supaya boleh download smua ebook sblum our escape to the 3rd world!!

kukuanga said...

I have read all Stieg Larsson's books in the Millenium serie. They're really great! I have also seen those movies, they're great also =D
Have you read Dorothy Koomson's books? I have read one, "Goodnight, beautiful", and I loved it. I think you like to read, am I right? =)

Hi! It has been a while since I visited.
I have the 'same' photo, just different books, meant for a blog post!
I read Mockingbird just this year! Loved it! And East of Eden about 5 years ago but gave away the book. I usually shy away from books 'young' people read so I've never read Ahern, Larsson etc. I started reading one of Spark's but couldn't bring myself to finish it!

I heard about the Sawtelle book on Oprah and want to put it on my list.
Has anyone read Tash Aw's "Map of the Invisible World"?
