Tell Me Your Dreams by Sidney Sheldon

This book was my first ever Sidney Sheldon book. THE PLOT WAS AMAZING. If you haven’t read this book, I highly recommend that you do. It’s best to stay away from spoilers since it will take away the surprise which made this one awesome. I binged-read Sidney Sheldon books after this.

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë

I feel like I’m an old soul because the way classic books are written strangely appeals to me. Jane Eyre was a book I highlighted like crazy. Below is one of my favorite quotes.

“His idea was still with me, because it was not a vapour sunshine could disperse, nor a sand-traced effigy storms could wash away; it was a name graven on a tablet, fated to last as long as the marble it inscribed. “

Cammie Morgan from the Gallagher Girls series. I’ve read this long ago but I remember that I thought she was a really cool girl. Actually, all of the girls in Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women (secretly a spy school) are. Speaking of, I have yet to finish this series.

This is hard. I’m a sucker for romances so I can think of a lot. But my current favorite is Cal and Mare from the Red Queen series. I was Team Cal ever since the first book and the third book made me happy but at the same time broke me. Please, Victoria. I need a happy ending for these two. I don’t think my shipper heart will be able to take it if it’s otherwise.

Mia of the Princess Diaries series. I know a lot of people might question this. She’s certainly not perfect and honestly, she whines a lot but hey, it’s a diary. I did that in mine too. Haha. The reason I chose her is that I see myself in Mia. I also had a lot of insecurities – I think we all do – and I related to her a lot. I started the series when I was still in high school and it went on until college so in a way, I grew up with her. I saw her grow into a better person and she helped me become one, too. 😀 So even though the Princess Diaries series is not the best one out there, it will always have a special place in my heart.

Does this mean books translated from another language? I’m not from an English speaking country so almost all of the books I read fall into the foreign category so I’d go with that description. 😀

Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami

I did not love this book but I liked it. I think you need to be in a certain state of mind or mood to be able to appreciate this book. It’s got a lot of weird stuff going on like talking cats and raining fishes. But what I liked about this book is that it made me read between the lines and think about life.

YES. I believe almost all readers have done this at least once. There was also a time that I bought a book on impulse because the cover was beautiful.

I regret to say this but I have yet to read a historical book. One of my New Year’s resolution this 2017 is to make my reading more diverse and I guess I should start with this. Recommend to me your favorites! 😀

Hogwarts, of course. I went to Universal Studios Japan and they have an awesome Harry Potter-themed ride. You ride a broom and take a tour of Hogwarts, join a Quidditch game, and face dementors. It’s in 4K3D so it felt very real and it’s hands-down the best amusement park ride I’ve ever experienced. It made me experience what it felt like to be in Hogwarts for a while and it was pretty awesome.

The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer by Michelle Hodkin

The whole Mara Dyer series was either a hit or a miss for me. I had a lot of problems with the first book and maybe my expectations were too high so I was left feeling disappointed. I absolutely loved the second book but the third one also did not reach my expectations. Such a shame considering it’s the last one. *sigh*
