Finished Harry Potter And The Cursed Child... I would say it is an ok story...not so good but not bad, personally I kinda disappointed for the story <.< Oh well, at least there is something related with Potter that we can read *cough*

Now, I'm reading The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. I used to read Chinese version, and I love it. Then, I found a second hand English version, so why not? Hehe

Finished The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold, I always love this book and always full rating it haha

Now reading the second book of Game of Throne series - A Clash of Kings by George R.R. Martin. Flipped behind, it has almost 1000pages, a very thick book for me, guess it will takes a longer time to finish it XD

So, I have finished "For one more day" by Mitch Albom. Seriously, everyone should read this book if haven't, this book is just simply easy to read, a book to slaps on your mind on whatever you have/had/haven't done, it might makes you feel guilty somehow because the story is very surreal smile.gif The book wasn't really thick, it could be finished within one week or even less than that, hehe nod.gif

Now, I am starting another book which my friend lent to me also. It's "The Princess Bride" by William Goldman. It has a very unique cover as well, haha xD

Finished "The Princess Bride" by William Goldman, it was an interesting classic comedy, those dialogues from the book are gold, definitely worth to read!

Next book will be the Chinese version of The Heroes of Olympus by Rick Riordan.
(I do collect/read both version of books because I personally think that different translation will bring out a different types of feel due to the words using)

Finished 'Diary of a young girl' by Anne Frank, and to be frank, it was ok for me(most probably i read the one already edited ). Basically is a story about the growth of Anne, pretty easy to read since it's in a diary form.
On moving forward to my latest haul : Hogwarts Classic smile.gif
