Reading is fun

Title : This heart of mine
Author : Susan Elizabeth Philips

What I really find pleasant about this book is the fact that Molly raped Kevin and ended up being pregnant. They were then forced to be married. I love it. I love the fact that they are married.

I like the fact that they were learned how to get along together and it was rather comical to see how they fought the growing attraction and chemistry between them as husband and wife as they seek comfort in losing their baby by running a tourist camp.

To add to the chaos of the falling marriage, Kevin's mother came back and a newlywed pair of couple who can't keep their hands off each other keeps trying to offer advice of sex to Kevin and Molly.

This is another typical happy ever after read but you can't help rooting for the couple with each page turn. That is, if you can get over the first few boring chapters.

Rating :- 4/5

Title : Double wedding
Author : Patricia Scanlan

The title means two couples getting married, not one marrying two. It's about a softie Jessica and her soulmate Mike who had to face their "friends" (I'm using the term friends lightly) the selfish Carol and insensitive Gary. The whole story basically talks about their wedding.

Be warn that you might curse loudly at Carol in each different chapter of the book due to her selfishness and how pushy and bitchy she is, shoving her nose wherever she wants. The other character that might be up for hate would be her womanizing fiancee Gary.

Just to sum it up, couple from hell. Even though the book had begun so, at the end you couldn't help it but to root for Carol, even for just a teeny bit.

The one thing that bothered me was the first sex scene portrayed in the book was just right in the middle of the sex. Maybe I would have preferred a foreplay, an opening to the sex cause for me, the sudden approach of written sex between a loving couple smack down in the middle of nowhere is kinda .. animalish.

Title : Eclipse
Author : Stephenie Meyer

I don't usually like to reread books but since this is my favorite Twilight saga book, I decided to give it another go. Of course, the second time around is not as interesting as the first time just because I already knew what was up ahead.

Still, I read it for the romance and action packed goodies. Twilight was too mild and intro like for me while New Moon was filled with a long gap of anguish and boring pages of Jacob, werewolves and so on. (Team Edward here)

Second round freshen my memory and let me read in peace as I rushed through the first time, anxious and eager to get to the end of the book, wondering how the big fight for life and love ended.

Rating : 4/5

Title : Marley & Me
Author : Josh Grogan

One of the reasons I picked up this book was because it's a based on true story non fiction best seller and it's about a dog. Marley was a dog which was adopted by the Grogans. The whole story starts with Marley being a playful puppy adopted by the newlyweds and span on for 13 years until the dog got old and his owners were parents of three kids.

The journey of Marley surely is bittersweet as each page unfolds more about Marley's playful ways as a puppy all the way to his senior years. I dreaded the end because I knew what was going to happen. I got all misty eyed and almost broke down at the end of the book.

Grogan certainly put the right words to describe his beloved dog. Now, it's time to watch the movie.
