My Inner Book Worm

Whenever someone asks me what my hobby is, I would happily say reading. Then of course, the list goes on like watching tv, listening to music, gossiping and many more. So, once I say reading, the next question would be 'who's your favo author?'. I would usually either stare blankly and change the topic, mumble something random or walk away. Then I would think long and hard about who's my favo author.

Now, when you ask me that question, I can and will proudly say SOPHIE KINSELLA!!! I think she has awesome writing style and whenever I read her book, I can never put it down. She's hilarious, I tell ya. I've read all her Shopaholic series, Undomestic Goddess and Remember Me. The latest one that got me hooked would be Twenties Girl.



I started reading it last Monday and finished it today. Once I started, I seriously couldnt stop reading. When I read other books, I can get restless but the ones Sophie writes are just so wanna-stop-reading-but-cannot-so-must-continue kinda thing. Nicey!!!

I wanted to share the synopsis of the story but i cant find it so I got the video trailer instaed. Ch-ch-ch-check it out.



There were 2 parts from the story that made me laugh so much. But I had to control lah because i was reading it at work. haha.

Part #1 - Lara (the main character) had to attend her great-aunt's funeral. After talking and being caught up with something else, she ended up being late for the ceremony. She entered the funeral parlour and was amazed with the crowd, the flowers and the songs that were sung. She was touched and she started crying. It was weird lah because she wasnt close with this relative anyway. After a moment of talking to somebody beside her, she realised that she was at the wrong funeral!!!! damn malu lah. First she cried like she was sad and then find out she cried for the wrong person. I LMAO-ed silently at this part. hahaha.

Part #2 - Her great-aunt Sadie is a ghost that follows her everywhere. She spotted a hot guy named Ed and made Lara stalk him so she can ask him out on her behalf. Sadie giving directions and all. She followed him into the office building, went to his office room only to get-crash a business meeting. So, she asked Sadie which was the guy she was eye-ing and she pointed at Mr. American Frown. Lara was shocked and she shouted 'Him????'. When she realised that everyone turned and stared at her, she saved herself with a 'Ahem..hrrrm....hrrrrrrm'. Okay, it might not seem like much but it made me laughed as well. Maybe because I imagined the whole scenario. teeeheee.

I'm so sad now that I have finished reading it before my Macau trip. But I wont mind going for another round. Tooooo goooood. I rate it - 10000000 stars :)

I wanna buy her other books tho, just for collection wise and read it again. Its worth it.

The End!!
