I am an extremely slow reader. That is why i prefer to buy than borrow books. When i buy books i can take my time to digest the new words, the contents, rather rushing to skim thru the story.
I have a fren who seems to share quite a similar interest with me. Whenever i go to kino, or borders looking for some good books, i came upon a few which she had already read.
You probably will question how i define as good books. First of all i go for those that are being displayed in a very conspicuous position, next the cover, followed by the blurb.
I can be pretty bored by books which go into litany of details and description. I am to be blamed for being so superficial. I read more into what is going on than how the writer made known the emotions behind those words.
I came upon a novel in mph yesterday with a review from the washington post right on the cover which says, "better than the Da Vinci code".
Do ppl actually write such comments which sounds so spiteful?
