read list

I have a bad habit of not finishing books, I will read everything up to the last few chapters and then ditch it aside. So basically I almost never 'finished reading a book'

probably the only book I would read that is marked as 'theology'

This morning I dug out one my dad bought last year, I remembered I enjoyed it but somehow I just didn't read till the last page, this time round I'm determined to read from beginning to end, wish me luck!

I'm waiting for my local bookstore to have a store wide sale, April was always the month but it's mid-month already and still no sign of any sale coming up :(

I'm planning to get this:

this is a novel btw :)

and maybe this:

was recommended by the bookstore owner, but I wasn't convinced then! ;)

would love more recommendations, loveliest moment of the day is when I have a good book in hand, ready for bed.

Simple pleasures are sometimes the best!

ask and ye shall be given

I have a knack for stories, I like reading the lives and experiences of ordinary people, which leads me to books like Chicken Soup. My mum bought me the teenage ones & another called 'tough stuff' when I was younger. The other day I re-read Cup of Comfort: for Christians (mum bought this 4 years ago when I wasn't a Christian yet but I enjoyed reading it anyway) and I casually mentioned I would like to buy Chicken Soup for Christians, while lamenting how expensive it was (books are generally expensive here in Malaysia!)

published in 1997

No, I didn't get it in the end, I don't feel rich yet ;)

Couple days later mum was dusting the shelves and out of the corner of my eye I saw Chicken Soup for the Unsinkable Soul. I have totally forgotten about this, it was given to me by dad's colleague during a tough time in life. Didn't matter that it wasn't what I specifically wanted, I felt like a little prayer of mine is answered, hallelujah! (I didn't even pray actually, I always feel things like these are too small matters for prayers. I certainly have got more to learn, the fact that He knows when a strand of hair falls from my head, nothing is too insignificant then)

Like mum said 'see? ask and it shall be given!'

Like I said, I did not ask, but He knows better ;)
