Image
Safe Haven is the new book added to my Nicholas Sparks collection novels. I guess my goal 101  is on the move now. hehe, I stopped buying books since I felt like I was book hoarding already. I bought plenty of books which turned out I didn't have time to read --- I mean all of them.  But this book was a gift from a very cutie friend of mine, I didn't expect that. It was her birthday but picture this out she gave me a gift. hehe, She's really a kind hearted lady. She knows that I adore Nicholas Sparks and I'll be ecstatic to have one. Safe Haven is my fourth book now. Yehay!! I will read this one maybe this weekend so I can post the review. Thank you so much to my cutie sister Elj for this book. waaaa I told her I have to buy her one. I will, next time *wink* Smile xD Here's the summary: When a mysterious young woman named Katie appears in the small North Carolina town of Southport, her sudden arrival raises questions about her past. Beautiful ye...

Message in a Bottle

Image
A story of love lost and found. This is the 2nd book I bought from the author Nicholas Sparks, but I haven't read it yet.  I was busy reading The Lucky One – still from N.S.   The plot: Thrown to the waves, and to fate, a bottle could have ended up anywhere. Instead, it is found just three weeks after it begins its journey. Theresa Osborne, divorced and the mother of a twelve-year-old son, picks it up during a seaside vacation from her job as a   Boston   newspaper columnist. Inside is a letter that opens with: My Dearest Catherine, I miss you my darling, as I always do, but today is particularly hard because the ocean has been singing to me, and the song is that of our life together... For "Garrett," the man who signs the letter, the message is the only way he knows to express his undying love for a woman he has lost. For Theresa, wary of romance since her husband shattered her trust, the message raises questions that intrigue her. Who are Garrett a...

GOAL 101: Sparks All The Way!

The bestselling American writer Nicholas Sparks was born on December 31 1965 (44), in Omaha Nebraska. He has published 16 novels already and six of them adapted to films, namely Message in a bottle, A walk to remember, The Notebook, Nights of Rodanthe, Dear John and The Last Song.  Two of his books are anticipated of being made into films. The Book True Believer soon this 2011 while The Lucky One is expected on the following year 2012. Actually I made a promise to myself that I will buy all his books. I’m a fan of his works. He’s one of the writers I admire. I wholly admire his writing skills, which I secretly desire to attain. Anyway, most of the time I wish I had that kind of talent, how I fantasize to have an excellent writing, which I’m eager to learn. I know I can, I have to be positive all the way to accomplish my goal. All his romance fiction books are ideal, but I have seen those on films like The Notebook, A walk to Remember, Dear John and The Last Song. I ha...
