The days where I only lay my hands on Chic Lit are virtually over. I guess I'm too old for such books right now. Hehe. I even began to re-read the two books that I have by Lauren Weisberger which are the Chasing Harry Winston and Everyone Worth Knowing.
After the quick flip through on pages, I realized that Chic Lit can somehow or rather mess up with your head. It's a ...err..probably rather fun to read it when I'm in my early 20's but I don't think it channels just the right influence or attitude to the younger ones. Haha. I wouldn't say the book is bad or anything it's just that, I'm more into serious reading these days. I would rather stick to books for business, money and real estate than reading back to back on Chic Lit.
So right now, if you have been dying to get your hands on Lauren Weisberger books which is other than The Devil Wears Prada ones, this is your chance to grab this book right now, from me! Seriously I just want it to be cleared from the bookshelves. Hehe.
Drop me a comment if you are interested to buy these books :

Everyone Worth Knowing

Big Bad Wolf Books - The Biggest Book Sale in The World ( at least in KL :))
Oh yeah, the Big Bad Wolf Books is back again for this year 2011 with their 'Biggest Book Sale in The World'. Any of you bookworms storming the place yet???
I'm currently not located in KL, so I suppose it isn't going to be economical for me to get down there just so that I can probably get some books for real cheap at an average price of RM 8. So, yeah, I'm not going to be there to join the 'fun'.
The Big Bad Wolf Book sale started yesterday on October 7th until the 16th of this month. I did ask around at their Facebook wall if there will be books by Richard Branson - Losing My Virginity, The 4-hour Workweek by Tim Ferris and a couple of other books by Donald Trump and Robert Kiyosaki on sale but I didn't get any answer from anyone. Hence, I'm guessing, probably those books are just not available and from what I'm seeing at the photo albums in Big Bad Wolf Book's FB, there are certainly a lot of chic lit books that I've read and had even sold most of them out to people.
From what I'm briefly seeing, I don't know, probably there isn't really much of a variety of books that you can get at this 'biggest' book sale in the world. But then again, I really don't know because I'm not there to observe and be amongst tonnes of people, brushing shoulders and grabbing on books because they are cheap. Haha. You see, crowd isn't really my thang and I would rather choose online purchasing or get an ebook than going to 'big sales' like this.
Anyways, if any of you people have already been there on the second day of the book sale, do tell me what books that you get and are there really a lot of varieties that you can choose from? And is it really worth the trouble to get there and buy the books? Let me know what you think of the Big Bad Wolf Book Sale for this year!

Top 5 Christmas Gift I Wish I Can Get This 2010
Hey Bloggie..
It has definitely been a long time (months) since I last updated anything here. I'm hopeful to make quite a comeback in here from now on. So do check out this space to who ever is subscribing to my feed.
So let's see what have we been missing? Oh yeah, Christmas is coming up next weekend and the new year too! I can bet there will a lot of last minute over due work or projects to finish up before the new year comes and of course before the long, much needed festive holiday. Just in case you are still looking around to buy that last minute Christmas gift, your best bet right now is to probably get something online.
Personally, I would love to either give away as gift or get something in return for this Christmas these bunch of awesome stuffs. Making things easier for everyone, I've come up with some Top 5 Christmas Gift I wish I can have this 2010 or Top 5 Christmas Gift you can get this 2010. Haha. Here goes:
1. Apple Ipad (16GB , WIFI, 3G)
- The coolest thing ever. Smaller than a lappy. A great item for people on the go and the thousands of Apps you get to install are to DIE FOR!
2. Kindle (A digital e-book reader)
- To reduce usage of paper, I would prefer to read my books paperless. So Kindle is the best bet for this.
3. Kindle Moleskin (Work as a cover for the Kindle and with a notepad too! So sweet!)
- Moleskin and Kindle! Man, it couldn't get any better than that!
4. The 4 Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferris ( You may ask Who is Timothy Ferris? My answer will be, "Where have you been man? Go figure. Haha)
- Something good to read about by Tim Ferris on the Kindle.Below is of course the Kindle version of The 4 Hour Work Week by Tim Ferris.
5. Perfecto Vegas Album by Paul Oakenfold (MP3 Download)

E-book VS Real Books
When E-books and Real books compete, I'm supposing E-books win hands down. Well at least for me, E-books shall win regardless. Here are some top reasons why E-books are getting more popular among general readers:
1. It's easy to purchase an e-book and you will receive your e-books immediately after payment has been made. All thanks to the power of the internet and online book sales.
2. If you don't fancy buying your books and are running a little bit low on cash, you have another alternative of getting your e-book which is to search and download books for free. Simply run a search on "book title + free ebook download" and pray that you'll somehow find a link to click and download for free.
I have to admit, it takes a little extra searches before you can find that 'free download links'. Some shareware sites need you to register as a member and some fees are needed. That's the kind of site you need to stay away from if you are wickedly frugal and really want to get that must-have e-book of yours for the FREE! Be patient on this one and you'll get your free e-book download somehow.
3. Some people don't really enjoy reading right from their computers and there is a solution for that. For years now, they are readily available in the market what is known as an eReader or in short it's a plain portable device that allows you to read your e-books at a go without literally have any laptop to read it. You can easily stash any eReader in your bag or handbags and it's really that mobile.
Personally, I really love the eReader version from Barnes and Nobles called as the Nook! It looks sleek and is rated as the New Best Gadget for 2009 by the TechCrunch Crunchies Award. To have a look at Nook and probably purchase it, click at the link here. Currently, I don't own a Nook just yet and probably I just should if someone can get it for me if you happen to visit the US. If I'm not mistaken, there are still no delivery for purchases coming from Asia. That's sad. =(
Anyhow, I just love e-books and you can always get them on a much bargain price from sites like Amazon.com or Ebay too. If you are not into online shopping, your best bet to get your hands on a real cheap books are probably on the nearest flee market near you. With that said, E-books win hands down,my friend!
