I’m a sucker for freebies. Tsk tsk tsk. And things became much more horrendous when it comes to free books.
It is quite a common knowledge that I blogged/ review for Booksneeze where the publisher provide free books in exchange of an honest reviews. So far I’ve reviewed 9 books from Booksneeze, and anticipating for more books to arrive for me to review.
Anyway, while I was browsing around, I found one more publisher giving away free books in exchange of an honest review: TYNDALE MEDIA CENTER
Do check them out if you’re interested in getting free books in exchange of your honest review on your blog or your websites.
I’ve placed this badge in my blog. That means I review for Tyndale Blog Network too. Are you going to review for them?
Cleffairy: Looking forward for my first book from Tyndale to arrive.
I borrowed this book, Twenties Girl by Sohpie Kinsella from Smallkucing’s Mamarazzi, and I couldn’t help but giggle like a school girl when I was reading this book in my bed.
My husband was really surprised, as it’s been quite some time since a book managed to make me laugh while reading them in bed. The last time I giggled in bed while reading was years ago, while I was reading not a novel, but comic books.
So… is this book good? Definitely. A light-hearted read, and I would recommend this to those who loves chic-lit.
This novel is about Lara. Lara has always had an overactive imagination. Now she wonders if she is losing her mind. Normal twenty-something girls just don’t get visited by ghosts. The spirit of Lara’s great aunt Sadie – in the form of a bold, demanding Charleston-dancing girl – has appeared to make one last request: Lara must track down a missing necklace Sadie simply can’t rest without.
Lara’s got enough problems of her own. Her start-up company is floundering, her best friend and business partner has run off to Goa, and she’s just been dumped by the love of her life. But as Lara spends time with Sadie, life becomes more glamorous and their treasure hunt turns into something intriguing and romantic.
What I thought initially is just another normal chic-lit where there’s a bimbo of a protagonist trying hard to be someone in the world, Twenties Girl is different, because it’s not just a chic-lit, but a mystery. The mystery that revolves around Sadie’s necklace, and why it is so important to her til she couldn’t rest in piece until the necklace is found.
As Lara goes around looking for Sadie’s necklace, her life has been turned upside down, in a good way. She became more and more daring, bold, fun and also she sees things in a different perspective. Being with her Aunt Sadie’s ghost taught her a lot of things in life; which is to let go, and to accept new things in her life. By finding Sadie’s necklace, Lara also learn that sometimes, those who are successful in life and boastful of their successes, have a dark story behind of it.
Very good book, recommended for those who wants a light read. Watch the book trailer below if you’re too lazy to read my review:
There’s quite a few surprises in this novel. Rated, PG13. Safe read.:D (Somehow I wish there’s steamier scene… but, oh well…if I want that, I can always have a dose of my Mils Boon or Harlequin.)
I happen to have a pdf. copy of Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella. And if you want to read it, kindly email me at cleffairy@gmail.com, and I’ll email to you as soon as I can. Yup, no catch, just email me or drop a comment here, and I’ll email you a copy of it. 😀
Chinese New Year is coming, and I will have no doubt that whatever monsters that I’ll be facing out there will be sucking my blood dry til nothing is left of me but my bones. 🙁 It gets more worst each year for me, with the needs to give angpows, the not so necessary car service for traveling, facing busybody relatives who expects me to bring expensive hampers along with big angpows for their brats when you I go visiting.
Money will always go out, out and out, and would not come back, especially during Chinese New Year. Call me a Scrooge, but I’m the kind who would prefer to spend wisely and not unnecessarily. Typical and traditional Chinese may not agree with me, but I believe that Chinese New Year should be celebrated with moderation and gratefulness for being able to live another year, not splurging and showing off your material possession and boast about your achievements. I think that is just plain sickening. The purpose of celebrating Chinese New year should be about family reunion, not boastfulness.
There is not much thing I can do about typical and traditional Chinese mentality, but there is something I can do to prevent money from continuously going out, out and out. This may not be something big or great, but hear me out, all right?
