2 book reviews...


Finished these 2 books within these 3 months..
1. The Zahir by Paulo Coelho
2. The Ringmaster's Daughter by Jostein Gaarder


Well, I found out I don't like to reading fiction writing from the point of 1st narrator. I simply lost tracks of the flow. Maybe my english is not that great at all.

I know they try to tell something happened in their mind.


In Zahir, the flashback and the awareness, realisation of losing a wife direct the character for an answer.

In Ringmaster's Daughter, Petter also fall into a stage of regret. An old unfinished relationship remains one of the hurdle for him in starting another one.

Both of them coincidentally are writers.... That is the most easiest character for both of the authors to write about and infuse some of their experience in life into the stories.. Maybe that's why it sounds true with the feeling and thought within..

Possibly start up with some easy-reading stuff like Angels and Demons (still haven't read it yet, hope the movie will take some time to make ar?!)

Live a life without regret and take care with the people who is being with you. Same old tune but true.. -_^
