Today I decided to rest. I spent the day reading finish Midnight Champagne by A.M. Ansay, watching Beauty and the Beast, my absolute favourite cartoon of all time, and lazing in bed. I finally managed to sleep a good 8 hours of sleep and am pretty contented. :)
I think it was about time I took this little break. People have been telling me I've gotten skinnier and pale. :S I think I look the same actually. *haha* However, I have been falling ill pretty easily these days. I took almost 3 weeks to recover from my Middle East cough in Jan then in Feb I fell ill with a fever all of a sudden which I suspect was cause of tummy problems and now, I am down with a very very bad sore throat/cough with random bouts of fever. *hmm*
So yeah...a break well-needed. :) And since I am a little more free today, let me do a little book review:
Midnight Champagne's not too bad though a little thin. Basically, the story's set at a wedding held in a chapel connected to a lodge. The entire story revolved around the bride and her troubles and a particular room - Suite 33. This suite is infamous for its bedroom activities ... On the wedding night however, a stranger wanders into the dinner, a stranger who has just murdered his wife in Suite 33. *hmm* I quite liked one snippet from the book though:
Nobody was ever really sure where love is concerned. There was always something more to learn, and that's why people fell in and out of love, sometimes with different people, sometimes with the same person over and over again. And each time it happened, it's like entering a different country. Things you thought you understood didn't make sense anymore. Sometimes it was wonderful, and sometimes it was terrible, but either way, you never could go back to what'd you been. Like dying? A little ... another kind of letting go.
Food for thought huh?
Now I've got P.S. I Love You, Summer in Tuscany & Five People You Meet in Heaven to look forward to. :D When's the next book fair?!
