I thought I would make a list of some of my favorite books. Some of my favorites are really quite random. This is not in particular order. So here it goes:
BOB ONG BOOKS. From ABNKKBSNPLAko?, Bakit Baliktad Magbasa ng Libro ang mga Pilipino, Ang Paboritong Libro ni Hudas, Alamat ng Gubat, Stainless Longganisa, Macarthur, Kapitan Sino, Ang mga Kaibigan ni Mama Susan to Lumayo Ka Nga sa Akin, I have been a greedy reader of Bob Ong's classic stories.
Bob Ong is a great artist, good communicator who can influence you through his words about life, love, politics, education, religion, drugs etc etc.
DIVERGENT TRILOGY. (Divergent. Insurgent. Convergent, 2013) Veronica Roth has created an epic world stuffed with action, adventure and major suspense. Divergent is one of the novels that had me jumping out of my seat.
Insurgent. The second book is SICK!!!! I utterly, unquestionably love that Veronica Roth picks up Insurgent right where Divergent left off. The book ends with a major cliffhanger that's going to kill me. DAMN IT!!! :P
DELIRIUM TRILOGY. (Delirium. Pandemonium. Requiem, Spring of 2013) This is a dystopian novel set in Portland where LOVE is a disease. Amor Deliria Nervosa. Can you imagine that? LOVE. AS. A. DISEASE???
The books are so terrific I want to cry a million buckets of tears. To those who loves YA/Dystopian novels, if you really want to be smashed in the chest by all that and a bag of chips, you need to read this series.
THE SHOPAHOLIC SERIES. The first ever series I have read. ^__^ I am obsessed with Sophie Kinsella novels. I actually read ALL. OF. HER. BOOKS!!!! :P
Sophie Kinsella is indeed an awesome author. I'm soooo looking forward to another chicklit of hers, and yell to the world that I read it because they are freaking coooool!!!!
I'VE GOT YOUR NUMBER. I told you, I love Sophie Kinsella. I've Got Your Number is her latest stand alone book.
When I downloaded a copy of this, I practically spent the whole day reading the novel. Sam and Poppy! YAAAY!!!! K. Whatever! :P It's a chick-lit, hell yes, what else would you expect from Sophie?
A fun. Light read. It's necessary to say that there was never an irksome moment reading it. And it's one of those novels that makes me really laugh. I was actually, laughing out loud the whole time I was reading this. HAHAHAHA nevermind! :P
THE DEVIL AND MISS PRYM. The only Coelho book I have read so far. I am not a big fan of him. Sorry! :P But I just love this book so much!
A simple yet arousing story of good and bad. Good vs. evil. It is a book about about temptation and about the ongoing struggle for manhood and for our eternal souls.
THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER. This is a story of a kid named Charlie, who is starting in his first year in highschool. A story on how he thinks and interacts with his family and friends.
The story really helped me remember the joy back to those wild and poignant roller coaster days, when I was still a teenager, those times when we were still exploring unfamiliar stuffs. Growing up, eh? This one is definitely a goodread for those, like me, who have ever felt like they aren't being noticed.
THE FIVE PEOPLE YOU MEET IN HEAVEN. A deeply moving literary wonder. A masterpiece. Another must-read from Mitch Albom.
I have cried not only once but countless. This book gave me lessons in LIFE. :) It's an inspiring read. No doubt, with all the hindrance and inability to understand why there had to be all these stupid bumps along the way, throughout the journey. I wouldn't mind if this happens in heaven.
FOR ONE MORE DAY. Since I have this special love and admiration towards mothers, I decided to put this book at number two spot. I find it very touching and I can really feel the author's sincerity. And hey! I'm a Mitch Albom fan! ;)
A story of how a mother loves her child deeply, even in a way that they are often misunderstood.
TUESDAYS WITH MORRIE. This book shares a lot of good perceptions about life and how to live well. It is like a piece of an outward sign how marvelous and great Morrie Schwartz had been so this book is truly a must-read! Trust me! It also helped me shape my perspective of what dying should mean. The author, Mitch Albom, captured my heart with this one. Surely, will capture yours as well.
I would imagine this list will be longer in no time. I am not a wide reader but certainly I LOVE to read. If you have made it to the end of this list, BIG THANKS for taking the time.
