iii.  The Relief

Finally!  Finally!  After a long wait since his last novel, I finally got my hands on Dan Brown's latest novel titled Inferno!  And guess what!  I got it on hardcover because I simply cannot wait for the paperback version to come out, which usually takes months after the hardcover version has been launched!

Sheldon Shines Brighter!

After Sidney Sheldon passed away a few years back, I was left with a huge void as to whose novels would ever hope to replace his books as my favourite read.  I confess that I have grown up reading his books ever since I was in form four, thirty four years ago and had been collecting each and every one of his novels ever since.  It all started when I was waiting for a friend at the Loke Yew Building in Kuala Lumpur one day after school, and it had been pouring like mad.  I took shelter in a small book store in that building and at first, only wanted to browse around when my eyes caught sight of this rather plain looking book with a single black rose tainted with blood.  That was the first thing that caught my attention about the book.

Reading Richie

One of the things I do when I have nothing to do, is go through some of my old things.  And while doing just that today, I found this novel by Richie Tankersley Cusick titled The Lifeguard that I have not had the chance to read.  I think I bought it about twenty years ago and had forgotten that it existed.  It's an interesting novel about Kelsey holidaying in Beverly Island.  I'm half way through the book, so I'm going to catch up with some reading now!

Reading Corner



A Humble Reading Corner

 I very seldom find time to do anything else in school except those related to teaching.  But when ever I do have some spare time at hand, I always like to add personal touches to the place I work.  Recently I set up a small reading corner for the Form 6 teachers, whose common room used to be a tiny store room.  Of course, I did the cleaning up all by myself until it became hospitable.

Reading materials for the corner I helped to establish were kindly donated by a colleague and of course, myself.  It is good to note that some of the materials I contributed have been borrowed by fellow teachers who have found the contents useful.  I also noted that children of colleagues also like to flip through the books and magazines even though they may not put the materials back neatly where they belong.  Thus the notice on the book rack!  Let's read!
