this time I'd like to intro some interesting books that I've recently bought..^^
these were the few tht i bought..XDXD.. spent about RM100 there:
The Five People You Meet in Heaven - Mitch Albom
The Game- Neil Strauss
Midnight's Children- Salman Rushdie
wanted to buy Tuesdays with Morrie- Mitch Albom too but had to restrict myself due to the approaching exams..luckily Thiniseh has em' so I'll be getting it from him..^^
Ever heard of "The Five People You Meet in Heaven" - Mitch Albom. If you have, isn't tht book amazing?? ^^( It's not that the others aren't.. it's simply because I've already started reading this and it came highly recommended by my Singaporean friend, Jeremy)
basically the story is about the life and death of a simple yet dignified old man, Eddie. After dying in a freak accident, he finds himself in heaven (in this book, heaven is simply described as a personal journey) where he encounters five people who have significantly affected his life and they are there "appointed" to teach one lesson and, in turn, allowing him to discover his true meaning and purpose in life.
these are some very meaningful quotes frm the book:
"Fairness doesn't govern life and death. For if it did, no good man would ever die young."
Nick would definitely love this..XDXD "All parents damage their children. It cannot be helped."
"Each affects the other and the other affects the next, and the world is full of stories, but the stories are all one."
these are the links relating to the books above..^^:
