A wonderfuL surprise..

Well, i was rather busy occupying myself reading a novel yesterday.
Can y0u imagine it?? The whole day?!!
Haha..i was keen on reading in the past..
becoz it was such a joy reading stories then..
but now, i'm sure most of us hate the sight of books..
perhaps up to the extend of even a brief mention of books irks you..
Well that's how i feel a few years ago..
until now, i was willing to give novels another try..
i have tried reading novels before but i never really finished it..
cos i think it gets a little boring in the middle..
so sort of read most novels halfway..
And usually read short stories now..

That's until recently,
when i chanced upon a book titled The Magicians Gulid..
It started off the story with a very nice description..

Then, i pluck up my determination again..
The determination to read a novel..
And i'm proud to say that i have recovered that confidence..
The confidence to finish reading a novel..
I had just finish reading two novels in the past 3 days..
It is actually a trilogy..
I'm not sure if anyone has heard or read of this trilogy..
Erm..it's the borrible trilogy..
Book 1: The Borribles
Book 2: The Borribles Go For Broke
Book 3: Across The Dark Metropolis

I've just finish book 1 and 2..
Now starting on book 3..
but someone torn some pages off the book 3..
Sigh..gonna know the ending..
It isn't really a fantasy i guess..
It seems more adventure genre..
Anyway, it's a good adventure..
The borribles are actually children..
Children who have pointed ears..
living on their own wits, cunning, stealing..
A live of freedom for these children..
But it's a strange world there..
Cos they are fought with many dangers..
Like the STUPID police SBG who are always after them..
Rumbles who are their No 1 enemies..
And Borrible-Snatcheres who torture Borribles and make them steal for them(snatcher)

The most hateable character in the story got to the police..
WHY??
Cos they are the law-enforcers..
and they are just like any other police..
Torturing their criminals..
Can u imagine..police torturing a child??
How i wish someone would sue till their pants drop..
Or maybe even throw them into shark infested oceans..
Whatever they do (the sharks), i dun care, i just want them out of my sight..

If You like adventure genre books..go read this..
i'm sure you will see why i hate them so much that words can hardly describe my deep-rooted hatred for them..
To me, law is just something meant to be twisted and broken..
Not that it doesn't meant anything to me..
But it's so strict and restricts ur way of life..
And i dun like that..Never..
Though i wun be a law breaker..
But i also dun like laws too..
