For my bookshelf: Adding to my Stephen King collection.

Salam,

As many know (chewah perasan) I am an avid reader of Stephen King. I collected his novel. Tapi tak semua ada. Miss t tanya, what did you like about Stephen King's? I said, suspense. Ntah, kadang-kadang penat juga baca sebab his style of writing sometimes made you bored, with his wordy words. But many of his books are hard not to read, in other words, can't resist. I was first introduced to his novel by my sister. She bought me Salem's Lot for my 15th birthday. Then my father bought me a few Stephen King's books, when he found I like Salem's Lot a lot. I started collecting his collection when I was in university. At that time a new book cost about RM25 to RM30. Tapi sekarang, phewwwhhhh.... If I can get used, I will buy them. Tapi susah nak dapat, biasa kalau ada orang iklan nak jual, tapi sampai 1 jam dah sold. Kuciwa. 

So recently, I slept late, was staying up because of work. Then nampak seller nie jual bukan used, banyak pulak buku Stephen King. Tapi I perasan pun dah 30 minit macam tu, masa tu dah banyak juga buku dah terjual. Cepat-cepat sey tanya seller....

Makanya.....




Dapatlah 4 buku nie. Tapi bila check dalam list, rupanya Heart in Atlantis tu sey dah ada dan dah baca...hahahahahha....Lupa nak update list oiii....

OK lah...bye.....

The tsundoku in me: Latest collection

Salam,

It was quite a while that I have not buy a book for myself. Mainly because, I still have many books on my to be read list and was busy with works and travel plans. My priority is to buy used books, trying to save money spending on books (ye lah tu) plus helping the mother earth by not buying new books.

So, since my travel plan to Japan is now being cancelled, and one way to overcome the frustration is by diverting my focus to buying books. Eh pelik bena kau nie Fazid. Just by luck, I saw a list of books on the used book facebook group. So tadaaaaaa





Some of the books I bought from booksnbobs. The owner Rachel is so sweet, she even gave a a postcard and a magnetic bookmark.


Nah....tsundoku in me.....
