On Books

Got this survey/topic from n@w =). Just sharing it with everybody.


1. Two books that you can read over and over again

I don’t re-read books as there are still a lot in my queue to read =) Although I re-read Archie Comics and Pugad Baboy if you can count that as a book.


2. Top 3 fave books

Daddy (Danielle Steel)
Tuesdays with Morrie (Mitch Albom)
Notes from my Travels (Angelina Jolie)

* to include the HP books and Philip Pullman’s The Golden Compass trilogy


3. Book that you started to read, but can't finish reading

LOTR and Tom Clancy's books. They're just too "intellectual" for my kind hehehe


4. Book that makes you sleepy

Computer and school books


5. First book that you bought with your own money (not bought by parents)

I think I started collecting Archie buying from my own money when I was still in high school. But it’s always on sale when I bought it that time so it wasn’t expensive =) Daddy by Danielle Steel is my first ever paperback novel.


6. Most expensive book you bought

Harry Potter books =) That’s the most expensive I got =) I usually buy books on sale.


7. Book given to you as a gift

Yaiks madami. Every occasion I receive book as a gift =) I usually receive a book that I already own so at the moment I have 2 copies of John Grisham’s The Bleachers, Sophie Kinsella’s Can you keep a secret and Innocent Man by John Grisham.


8. Favorite author

Our room is already cramped with my small shelf of books. And it’s loaded with the books I bought which is usually from the same author. So to cut this long story short, what books I’ve kept in my mini library is all my favorite authors =)

Danielle Steel, John Grisham, James Patterson, Michael Crichton, Nicholas Sparks, Sophie Kinsella, J.K. Rowling, Paulo Coelho, Mitch Albom, Graham Greene, Philip Pullman, Jeffrey Archer, and David Baldacci.
