Always and Forever


Enjoyed this book. The main characters are three women, all with different issues to deal with. I don't think any men would enjoy this book but I think it's a really good chick lit :) The three women deal with issues that I can relate to now or some other point in my life. Especially about being a working mother and dealing with the guilt of not being with your kids. I never really shared my feelings with friends whom I feel truly understand the guilty feeling. It feels nice to have something in common with another person albeit a fictional one..hehe

I rate this book 8.5/10

The mermaid chair


Loved this book. It was a refreshing read after reading so many murder mysteries and thrillers. Sue Monk Kidd writes beautifully. Should I read The Secret Life of the Bees or watch the movie? After reading Twilight the movie to me was worse than terrible. So I don't want to spoil the movie experience by reading the book cause Oprah loved the bee movie..and I trust Oprah. :)

The only downside to the book is the woman's infidelity. It's something I prefer not to read about. Haha, but really couldn't avoid it as it's a big part of what the book is about. Itula amik buku kat library tak baca synopsis. :)

Overall it'd give it an 8/10.
