I used to love going there. But these days, I can never find what I want to read in that bookshop, most of the time.Originally posted by Fatum:that reminds me of the second hand bookshop at holland village ....
now the owner's is what I call a real book lover ....
I guess if you're looking for mainstream titles, you'll find the titles there. But for more eclectic titles, you'll be hard-pressed in your search. -
My bad! My bad!!Originally posted by choco B:HAHAHAH

Later, if I kena hit by lightning, you all know why, right? But please don't tell the New Paper reporters cause they'll sensationalise everything and I won't be able to die in peace with the headlines they'll come up with! -

Oops, sorry. You know how everything gets sidetracked to food in this forum!Originally posted by JLennon:Wait a minute, i thought this thread is about literary delights and not Nigella's English muffins?
Back to our regularly scheduled programme!
P.S. But those muffins are magnificent, are they not? *does his best Lord John Malbury accent* -
You should place swimsuit babe calendars at your work table. Definite mood improver and morale boosters!
* Calendar = paper product with words printed on = literature = yay not off pointOriginally posted by av98m:Whatever keeps me happy and optimistic in a chaotic and changing world. -
That was the plan actually. I was overly optimistic and expected to have a Mrs av and a kid by now. Oh well.Originally posted by Fatum:it's "for the children and grand children next time" isn't it, AV ? ... 
*wonders if there is a mrs av out there for him. and if there is, hopefully she has nice english muffins* -

*cough* *ahem*
Just to bring this thread back on track, I'm reading Locked Rooms by Laurie R King. This is the 8th(or is it the 9th? hmm) book in her Mary Russell series.
Mary Russell is Sherlock Holme's wife btw.
This series is great for fans of the original Sherlock Holmes series by Sir Authur Conan Doyle, as it carries on from where the original left off. Conspicious in his absence will be dear old Dr Watson.
Well, Sherlock Holmes fans will either love this series or REALLY hate it, there's no in-between here. Personally I love it. Holmes always seemed the sort who would rob the cradle for a wife. The first book in the series in titled The Beekeeper's Apprentice. -
i want to read 'Wasted' by Mayra Hornbacher
and 'girl, Interrupted'
and 'one flew over the cuckoo's nest' -
Women without Men
A collection of eighty-four poems on art, love, food, nature and death by Leong Liew Geok an Associate Professor in the Department of English Language and Literature, NUS.
Quite an interesting book. -
Are all the poems written by the aforementioned Mr Leong or is it a compilation of the works of different poets?Originally posted by DeadPoet:Women without Men

There's a word I chanced across in one of those Nicholas Sparks novels that I love - 'Happenstance'.
Hmm... I've only read Message in a Bottle by him, so I guess it must be in that novel.
Or, was it another book by another author?
Anyways, 'Happenstance'... -
Not much time to read. Am only able to read magazine articles `cause they are shorter.
Been reading lots of Fortune magazine stuff ever since they made their site subscription free. -

I guess at different points in our lives, our time and attention will be split amongst various projects and priorities.Originally posted by Parka: Not much time to read. Am only able to read magazine articles `cause they are shorter.

I went through stages where all I could read were magazine articles too. But that will pass!
I used to read Fortune magazine donkey years ago because the companies I worked for subscribed to them. Very interesting articles in there, although now that I'm no longer in the corporate world, I guess the relevance to me is not as great.
