The Book

So I went to get the book anyway. Who knows how much I spent this week buying... um, "stuff that I collect". So I figured, heck, this book's only 35bucks. Beli je lah. I read 5 chapters of the book at Borders in the Gardens first though. But I bought it at MPH. There was about a RM10 difference in between them. Would've read it at MPH if they had one that's not still wrapped in plastic.

Damn, Borders is cold. And why the heck is the "Young Adult" section always filled with girls' novels?! (this book is probably a girly book too. I asked my little brother if he had friends who read books. He said only girls. And he mentioned that they were all currently into this title.)

Btw, the price tag on the book states that this title was under the "Horror & Ghost Stories" category. And from the price tags I surveyed at MPH the other day, the sequels to the books increase 5-10% in both thickness and price each sequel. But I'll just go through it all one by one. This also happens to be the first novel I bought, excluding books we were forced to buy in school.

If I actually finish reading this book (and I will, because I already bought it.), this would be the fourth novel that I'd actually finish reading. Ever. (the other three would be the first Harry Potter and two Jodi Picoult books. And Jodi Picoult happens to be in the "Women's" section at MPH. Sigh.) So yeah, I've only ever finished reading 3 novels before this. I only read Konserto Terakhir halfway and the first few pages of Bukit Kepong. (Dan saya bangga BM saya C6)

Alright, so I analyzed and explained everything EXCEPT the contents of the book itself. Mission Success. Btw, the title is Stephenie Meyer's Twilight. Recommended by Alia Adam.
