Silent Boy

Silent boy by Torey Hayden..

I bought this book because the cover looks interesting.Thought will give it a try as it was not something that i usually read.And it turned out that it was way,way better than i had expected.

It is about this boy,Kevin who could talk but refused to for 8 years until this teacher (Torey Hayden) came along.Her persistent and love made him speak again.But there was more to it than Kevin not speaking.His tragic past,his fear of the world...and all that caused so many obstacles along the way but Torey did not give up.Though she thought of it but not once did she actually do it.She just knew that she was the only one who could help him and rescue him from the darkness..

I am not that good at book reviewing (may not be doing justice to the book) but it is really a good book.I am thinking of getting the others..

Ashes of dreams

I think i have mentioned before that my new hobby is to look for cheap books to purchase.And this is one book that i found on my last trip.

The book only costs RM9.90 and it is so worth buying it.Why?

I used to buy books about people's life and all those China stories such as Empress Orchid.Then one day when i was in Popular,i decided to try books on romance.So,i bought this book and another one..Goodnight,Sweetheart.

I delayed reading this cause it doesn't look that interesting to me.Until yesterday when i was so bored that i decided to start.Once i started,i really cannot put the book down.I was watching badminton at that time while reading the book and ended up going to my room to enjoy the book only.I was up reading until 1.30am.And this morning when i woke up,first thing was grab the book and continue reading until now.I just finish reading it.

The story is about a widow who had to care for three sons and her father-in-law who injured himself from a fall.Her husband died supposedly because he was killed by the stallion he loved the most.She had to endure the hardship of life.One day,a gentleman arrived with his 'son' to help her out and that is when both their worlds changed into what they had not expected.

I am not so good at briefing the story so it may sound NOT SO INTERESTING.But reality IT IS.So,it you happen to see the book in a bookstore...you can consider getting it.

Deep Freeze

Deep Freeze by Thom Racina





Deep Freeze..by the looks of it,this is not something that i will purchase.The type that i will buy is ones that have a photo of a person and the book is about their lifes.Then how did i end up buying it?

Well,i puchased this book from either Popular or MPH bookstore when i was studying in KL.I have a fixed allowance each month and i spend a lot mostly on travelling.So one day when i was at the mall,i decided to survey some books and see if there is anything interesting.While surveying,i realised that there are certain books among the expensive ones that are really cheap..RM5 or RM10..and they don't look old or anything like that.That's how i ended buying this book and a few more.

When i went back to my college,i was so happy that i finally have something else to do besides staring at the wall if my roommate is not around.Started a few pages of it and found it interesting.It is about a part of America (read it some time ago so don't remember exactly where) slowly freeze and how the people survive because they are not prepared for something like that.Houses collapsed,people being killed,no transportation,no food,no clothing,no electricity and etc.How did they survive?You will have to read to find out.

One thing special about this book is that when you read it,you et so into it that you will feel cold just like how they feel.That happened to me.REALLY..At college,there is only a ceiling fan.I was ended up putting my blanket and it was in the AFTERNOON.

Conclusion...you should try reading this book.
