My Book Shelf

I am on my rest days from work. Most of the time i am only at home infront of the computer and/or watching movies on DVD. This day, since no one was around, i decided to clean up and arrange things accordingly thus i worked from 11:00PM to 3:00AM. I got Nina, Sarah and Rachelle An Go in my background after listening to Jed Madela. 

 I jsut really wanna share you my book shelf. I never knew that i already picked up much book. I know it ain't but its a lot to me now.

as I told you i am not a book collector but there are just some things that are worthy to read and some worthy to know about. When i pick a book, i need to know what it is for first and i need to think if it can be a good read. I just dont pick a book that i can't get something that i can use daily or can be followed for my life.

I know that the TWILIGHT books are not that relevant to everybody's life. This are fiction books but the thing about it is it can broaden your imagination. It can take you to places where you have not been yet and it will let you experience things that is not true about life. Well, anyways, i got it because i am not satisfied with the outcome of it in the movies. Seems like there have been a lot of things left undone. It might have been so costly though if they really based it on every page of the book and so when they shortened it out, its best to read the whole book rather than watching the movie. 

 I got Sophie's World by Josten Gaarder. The book is about philosophy. There are still lots of books from Josten Gaarder that i want to buy. I love how he writes the stories of the novels. Its about symbolism, denotation and the likes (as i told you, i like those stuff). Maybe when i got a chance to visit the bookstore again, i will see to it that i got a copy of one of his book to add on my shelf unless Nicholas Sparks would not come  to me crawling on his kness to grab his books too.

 I used to have L. Ron Hubbard's novel too. Sci-fi themed are most of his books but i sent it to my aunt co'z she has been craving for some good read. As of now, Hubbard books that you can see on my shelf are The Dynamics of Life, Clear Body Clear Mind and The Problems of Work. I guess the title speaks on what should the book be all about. Its a worthy read though. You will learn from it.
 Since i got a sleeping problem and I am an insomniac, i dropped by this book stall and found this book from Alexander Stalmatski, Freedom from Insomnia. I have not finished reading it yet co'z i still can't figure out how to sleep properly until  decided to plan for a 6 to 8 hour sleep daily. Nah! it never worked so im not finishing the book yet. 

I also got this book from Manish Gupta titled The Wacky World of Words which is a worthy read co'z you can get new ideas in constructing sentences as well as new words that you can use instead of using the traditional words we have grown up with. Curious? I can lend you the book and see it for yourself. 

When my father died and coping with it is a long process, heaven heard my call to cope with it easily when i happen to pass by the book stall again and found this book from Victoria Secunda, Losing Your Parents, Finding Yourself. The book was all about dealing with things after losing someone dear, your parents. A nice book to read. 

I got Keay Davidson's Twister in which was based on the movie Twister. I love Helen Hunt and thus i decided to take a peak on how the movie was made and how twisters are formed and these all are in this book.

On my shelf too are Bob Ong's ABNKKBSNPLAko, Bakit Baliktad Magbasa ng Libro ang Mga Pilipino, Ang Paboritong Aklat ni Hudas, Ang Alamat ng Gubat, Stainless Longganise, Mac Arthur and Kapitan Sino. Bob Ong is one of my favorite writer. I love the humor he puts on his books.

I have some good to read on references too, Reader's Digest, Joke Books, Music Book, Magazines, Astrology handbook. All of them are on this shelf. 

One of my favorite too is V.C. Andrew with books so mysteriously worked on becuase of the mysterious stories. 

And I love Jane Austen. Whichever i have, the movie or the book. PRIDE AND PREJUDICE is very entertaining to me. some of my friends said that watching the movie is so boring. But, it is never boring when you have read the book.

Well, i can lend the books to you and vice versa.
