the brain stirrer


my sister kept on talking about a movie trailer she saw in ultra. the movie she was talking about was SHUTTER ISLAND. it makes no sense to me but she seems to be excited about it so my interest was piqued. she kept blabbing about it but i dismissed it for a time. but one day, i was surprised when i saw her holding a copy of SHUTTER ISLAND (yes, the movie was based on a book). she became very quiet and wouldn't stop reading. when she finished it she wouldn't tell me the story so i decided to read it too.

the book is super shocking. the ending was super mind-boggling. until now i don't know what to believe.

READ IT PLEASE AND TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK.
I HAVE THE COPY. SO IF YOU WANT TO BORROW JUST SEE ME

shopaholic






i've been reading Sophie Kinsella's shopaholic books for a month now and i'm on my third book. i have been super amazed at the contents. all i can say is that it's so refreshing to read novels that converses with the reader. the shopaholic collection portraits Rebecca Bloomwood, the protagonist, as a super shopping addict. Rebecca loves to justify all her purchases not realizing that she already has a roomful of it. the story revolves around her addiction and how it affects her life, her parents life, her love life, and her bestfriends life. its such an interesting read because it shows the characters weakness which turns out to be one of her strengths.

being with Rebecca for a bit long has really transformed me, her confidence is really infectious.
