The Bookworm Confessions

These are two of my newest books. Juliet by Anne Fortier and Angel’s Game by Carlos Ruiz Zafon. I am halfway through Juliet already. Angel’s Game will be next. Happy Monday!

Buying books make me happy. Finding out that the book I bought was actually a good one makes me even happier! I was asked how I select the books I buy. I actually find good books through recommendations via Twitter and Facebook and blogs. Several of the books I recently bought were ones I read [...]

There is lust and then there is love. They are related, but still very different things. To indulge in one requires little but honeyed speech and a change of clothes; to obtain the other, by contrast, a man must give up his rib. In return, his woman will undo the sin of Eve, and bring [...]

Nothing beats holding an actual book in your hands. I can get electronic copies of the books I like. But I still buy either the hardbound or paperback copies of it. I just love seeing the printed word on my hands. That’s mainly the reason why I bought so many books at the National Bookstore [...]

Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher. I already bought the book! I am happy I found it at Fully Booked. It was 399 pesos only and the store has a few more copies in their inventory. Two branches of National Bookstore told me that it was sold out already. Thank goodness Fully Booked has some [...]

This is a new discovery. Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher. I just found this book an hour ago and I am excited to go to the bookstore and buy a copy already! Here is a synopsis of the book… When Clay Jenson plays the casette tapes he received in a mysterious package, he’s surprised [...]

My sister brought home a copy of the book Diary of a Wimpy Kid. I am intrigued. My friend said that the first book is actually good. Funny was how she described it. But the rest of the books in the series is just plain OK. I think I’ll read it after my sister. I [...]

I’ve added a new book to my pile: Fallen by Lauren Kate. I read good reviews about the book and since I love stories about vampires, fallen angels and such, I bought the book right away. I know, I know. I owe you so many reviews already. Include this one

I miss a lot of good movies. Sometimes, even when I am highly anticipating a movie, I still miss it due to some unforeseen circumstances. So what I do is, I list down the movies and wait for it in HBO or buy the DVD. I love HBO! There are movies that I am unaware [...]

I’ve added the following to my Books to Read pile: Willow by Julia Hoban Seven months ago, on a rainy March night, sixteen year- old Willow’s parents died in a horrible car accident. Willow was driving. Now her older brother barely speaks to her, her new classmates know her as the killer orphan girl, and [...]

I am in limbo right now. I don’t know which books from my pile I will read next. I don’t want to read the next book in The Southern Vampire Mysteries yet. I am watching Season 1 of True Blood and it is largely based on Dead Until Dark, the first book. I am thinking [...]

I am curious with this new book entitled, Predatoress. It is authored by someone named Emma Gabor and strangely enough, the main character is also named Emma Gabor. That alone will draw you in for sure. Anyway, this is another vampire story. But with a promise that it is entirely different from the mainstream ones [...]
