    I just finished reading that book Atonement. After reading it, I found out it has been made as a movie, so I want to see the movie version of it to compare.

    "Memories of My Melancholy Whores," by Garcia Marquez. A minor if enjoyable work.

    Thanks for the recommendation ronnnie!

    What's it about?
    A 90-year-old man treats himself to a very young virgin on his birthday, and they develop a kind of irregular romance. The man also, in beginning the relationship, reminisces about prior loves in his life and the joy of his youth. There is not so much of a plot as much as a series of events and descriptions that drive us deeper into the narrator's mind. Still, new Gabo readers would do better with "Cien Aņos..." or "Love in the Times of Cholera".

    It sounds interesting, and also a little taboo. I think I might read it.

    The last book I read was Think and Grow Rich. I enjoy reading the book and at the same time, I learned many things on how to work out to make my dreams in life come true. You are what you think!

    The last book I read was Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer. It is the third book of her Twilight series. The next one will be coming out in August. I can't wait for that one.

    I'm reading New moon now as I already done with Twilight. Much better to read that to watch the movie.

    Kitty Girl, the story is soooo.....


    I just finished reading the book "Free Love, True Love" written by a Filipino priest. It is about about how the world has corrupted sex and discusses what Scripture and the Church teaches about it. It was taken from Pope John Paul II's Theology of the Body and translated it in a way that even the man on the street can comprehend.

    Deception Point by Dan Brown, such a page-turner. You guys should also try Paulo Coelho's 11 minutes.
