Because I ran out of ideas
and things to do.
Second hand bookstores rock my world.

Today, I learnt from my mom that dengue can damage your liver...

Like it did to hers.

On another note, I finished the novel 'Place Last Seen' today. The Down syndrome kid they've been looking for died. Of course I expected her to, but it was a little shocking, especially when they found the body later. I love the language and style that Freeman uses to encapsulate the moments of grief and anguish, and the moments of hope spaced in between. It's powerful without being tacky. No big words that you have to look in the dictionary for.

Recommended.

Oh, I must go back to that second hand bookstore at Ampang Point where I got this treasure. I think it was about 4 years ago, but I'm sure it's still there bearing the name of Pay Less Books. :D
