Reading books was never really a hobby until my teenage years when I started travelling from Home to college. Thankfully, being a lonely traveler (and by that I mean travelling minus a big group of 'train' friends) meant I would have a book to give me company when college friends weren't around.
These days I get completely submerged into the book .. often not realizing that I've reached home ...
Currently reading:
The Wedding by Nicholas Sparks
I'm not much of a romance novel reader .. but since I loved the story of The Notebook ... I couldn't help picking up it's sequel ... Have completed just 50 pages .. and its been great ... Will write a complete review later.....
1st March 2010 .... 12.18 am .........
Considering that I had nothing else to do this weekend .. I finished reading the book ... yes .. I did stay up until 2 am wanting to read it thru the night .. but my eyes wouldn't permit me .. anyways I completed it today ... as I read the last few words I wished that there was more ..
Although I consider myself a die-hard romantic, I don't read romance novels ... but Nicholas Sparks books are something that makes my idea of romance come alive thru his characters. This story is all about how love sometimes takes second place in our busy lives. The characters, especially the main protagonist and his wife, have been crafted beautifully. Won't tell you the story, but am gonna leave behind an excerpt of the book .. some lines that moved me .... (I have the book ... so if you know me , borrow it .. will be glad to share it with you ... :)
Excerpts :
"And that's what the most wonderful feeling in the world. How many people are ever given that chance? To have someone you love fall in love with you over and over again."
"It's funny, but have you ever noticed that the more special something is, the more people take it for granted? It's like they think it won't ever change"
