The Bookworm Confessions

Oprah’s Book Club Selection

Did you know that once upon a time, I deluded myself into believing I will and can read all books from the Oprah’s Book Club Selection? Oh yes I did!

I printed a copy. I have every intention of reading the first book on the list. And then slowly going through it, ticking off the ones I’ve read until I am done with the first batch. But guess what? I didn’t do that! I never even had a chance! There just wasn’t enough time for me to do it. Too much work to do in the office back then and too many tempting old books I re-read.

I did read one from the list. Out of curiosity. James Frey’s A Million Little Pieces. I fell in love with that book. It was so raw! Never mind if there was a controversy behind the book because of some fictitious insertions when it’s supposed to be a memoir. It was a great book that will touch your hearts and minds. I will do a formal review on this book in the next few days.

I can positively say now that I am not interested in doing this anymore. Reading all the books from Oprah’s Book Club. I know I can’t. Plus the fact that I am not interested with most of the books I’ve seen so far.
