Okay, me first, I am just dying to read Twilight by Stephenie Meyer. Ive been to National Bookstore twice this week already but it's still out of stock. I just have to read it before the movie's shown in cinemas here in Bicol. So you know what I did, I turned to e-bay. And just last night, before I went to bed, I was wearing this dreamy smile, knowing that in a few days time, I'll have the book in my hands because I was the winning bidder, but wouldn't you know it, when I checked my mail this morning I was outbid! Oh, the cruelty of it all ! And what hurts most is that I lost the book for 5 pesos. Haaaay, kainis talaga! Anyhow, I'm bidding again. Hope I win this time.  I just got to read it!

These arrived thirty minutes ago, (10:30 am), and pardon the over enthusiasm but I can't just wait to share with you my happiness! Finally! I am sooo happy right now I feel I can't wish for anything else. Lol! But really, I'm beyond words. See, even Kianna's happy about it! K, that's enough, have to start reading! Be back soon!

Its a great books. Book 2 is slow though. Book 1, 3 and 4 is amazing. I read them all with 2 weeks. My sister-in-law recommend to get these books and I couldn't wait. I didn't see the movie though...I heard some reviews from my niece and SIL.

K and Mrs NJ:
I'm not much into Vampire stuff but now you two have peaked my curiousity. I "might" read the first book --- as soon as the long reservation queue for it at the library is gone. Right now, there are about 37 reservations for the first book!
I'm "dying" to read a book on the collected poems of Rumi.

Noli Me Tangere
I am embarassed to say that I have never read this book, preferring authors from the other side of the world. Yet, while reading Book Smart: Your Essential Reading List for Becoming A Literary Genius in 365 Days , the author included this in her essential list and included to say that American Novelist William Dean Howells "knew the book and praised it in 1901 as a "great novel" with a sense of "unimpeachable veracity." "
Now can anyone send me Noli Me Tangere(translated by Harold Augenbraum)?

Hi, Mrs. NJ! Glad you liked the book too. I am on my last four chapters of twilight and I'm gonna watch the movie next week. After that, I'm onto book 2.

Teamay! Please do read it!  I know there are some parts that you may find "corny" (laughs!) but for the most part, you'll be giggling, and feeling giddy, and mushy. D'you remember what's it's like when you first fell in love? Or what it was like in the first few stages of a relationship? If you want to revive the feelings you get from that, read Twilight Teamay. )
