Lets talk about Cecelia Ahern books and a devil

Harini aku beli 3 novel baru sebab kat Times bookstore Pavilion ade sale buy 3 for 2 (3 books for the price of 2 books) dan buku2nya terdiri dari buku2 yg aku memang teringin nak baca, buku Cecelia Ahern, lalu terus aku beli. Bukan ape, takut terlepas lagi peluang keemasan ni sebab dulu pernah ade offer sekali buku2 minah tu, aku dah nampak dah tapi aku dok delay2 beli. By the time aku nak beli, diorang dah tukar offer tu kepada buku lain plak, buku tak berape aku nak gemar. Jadi kali ni aku nampak terus aku rembat laju2.

A place called here

Since Sandy Shortt’s childhood classmate disappeared twenty years ago, Sandy has been obsessed with missing things. Finding becomes her goal- whether it’s the sock that vanished in the washing machine, the car keys she misplaced or the graver issue of finding the people who vanish from their lives. Sandy dedicates her life to finding these missing people, offering devastated families a flicker of hope. Jack Ruttle is one of those desperate people. It’s been a year since his brother Donal vanished into thin air. Thinking Sandy Shortt could well be the answer to his prayers, he embarks on a quest to find her. But when Sandy goes missing too, she stumbles upon the place - and people - she’s been looking for all her life. A world away from her loved ones and the home she ran from for so long, Sandy soon resorts to her old habit again, searching. Though this time, she is desperately trying to find her way home…

Buku ni memang aku dah lama teringin nak beli sebab sinopsys dia macam menarik sangat.

P.S.I Love you

Some people wait their whole lives to find their soul mates. But not Holly and Gerry.Childhood sweethearts, they could finish each other's sentences and even when they fought, they laughed. No one could imagine Holly and Gerry without each other.Until the unthinkable happens. Gerry's death devastates Holly. But as her 30th birthday looms, Gerry comes back to her. He's left her a bundle of notes, gently guiding Holly into her new life without him, each note signed "P.S. I Love You."As the notes are gradually opened, and as the year unfolds, Holly is both cheered up and challenged. The man who knows her better than anyone sets out to teach her that life goes on. With some help from her friends, and her noisy and loving family, Holly finds herself laughing, crying, singing, dancing - and being braver than ever before.Life is for living, she realises - but it always helps if there's an angel watching over you.

Ade orang cakap buku ni lagi best dari movie dia. I’ve watched the movie and I think its not bad, mostly because of Gerald Butler and Lisa Kudrow @ phoebe is acting in it. But I don’t think Hilary Swank is the most suitable person for the role of Holly though, because Gerald Butler is just to god damn gorgeous to be her husband, sorry Hilary. Another reason is because most of the movie was taken place in Ireland and the scenery of Ireland was so breathtaking, I just love looking at it.


The devil wears Prada

When Andrea first sets foot in the plush Manhattan offices of Runway she knows nothing. She’s never heard of the world’s most fashionable magazine, or its feared and fawned-over editor, Miranda Priestly.

Soon she knows way too much.

She knows it’s a sacking offense to wear less than a three-inch heel to work – but there’s always a fresh pair of Manolos in the accessories cupboard.

She knows that eight stone is fat. That you can charge anything – cars, manicures, clothes – to the Runway account, but you must never leave your desk, or let Miranda’s coffee get cold. That at 3 am, when your boyfriend’s dumping you because you’re always working and your best friend’s just been arrested, if Miranda phones with her latest unreasonable demand, you jump.

Most of all, Andrea knows that Miranda is a monster boss who makes Cruella de Vil look like fluffy bunny. But this is her big break, and it’s all going to be worth it in the end.

Isn’t it?

I’ve watched the movie; I love the movie very much, now I want to read the book and see if it is as good as the movie or if it’s better. But one of my friend said the book is better, well I guess I will find it out soon because I’m reading this one first.
