What are you currently reading?
ako yes. pag bored ako i read books. problem lang, pag nagstart ako tuluy tuloy na. i used to read at a rate of 2 books a week. pag sobrang good read sya or page turner talaga, di ko tinutulugan. in 2 days tapos! pero lately di na rin ako masyado nakakabasa pero andami ng nakastandby na books ko. ugali ko kase ung bumibili ng book everytime nadadaan ako sa bookstore. right now i have over a hundred books na sa cabinet ko. half pa lang siguro nababasa ko.
i like reading suspense thrillers, medical thrillers, adventure novels, historical fictions, and satirical fiction.
writers i like include james patterson, dan brown, steve berry, michael crichton, carl hiaasen and clive cussler. pero nahumaling talaga ako sa books ni clive cussler, an adventure novelist. super action-packed yung novels nya.
currently i am reading Neil Strauss' The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pick Up Artists. so far ok naman. very funny and madaming useful tips for men sa book. it's a must read for all men. ;)

yes, angels and demons! okay yan! actually all books by dan brown are really good. deception point and digital fortress are very engaging as well. too bad wala pang follow up yung last book nya.
ano kaya kinalabasan nung movie na angels and demons? da vinci code was very disappointing. i hope they did a better job with angels and demons.
ako di ako mahilig magbasa ng story books. ang binabasa ko magazines and mga self-help books.
kung fictional books hinihintay ko na lang ipalabas sa sine hehe

"Born the son of a wealthy merchant-mariner, Gabriel is to take over his father's thriving business one day. But when he witnesses a brutal act committed against a Shinali women, he is inextricably bound to a different destiny. Highly intuitive by nature, Gabriel is a born healer, a vocation he pursues despite his father's demands. His gift as a healer is finally legitimized when he is accepted into the Citadel, the most esteemed institution in the land. He is soon in league with the powerful of the empire, including Empress Petra herself, who comes to rely on his ability to interpret dreams. In gaining her favor, he makes powerful enemies and witnesses firsthand the corruption that is weakening the empire, rotting it from the inside out. Soon, he will be called upon to make a choice --- a choice that will threaten Navora, his beloved Shinali, and his very life. Who will prevail?"
Tapos ang sequel nya po ay The Time of Eagle by Sherryl Jordan

"I was the first child born to a hunted people, in the first winter of their flight. My earliest memory is of being carried on my mother's hip across barren plains, with wild mountains all around, and of rough tents made of skins stretched across sticks planted in the dust, of hunger and thirst and a feeling I did not like or understand, but which I know now was the fear that shadowed my people, as a wolf shadows a wounded deer.
Avala dreams of becoming a healer, but her dreams are not the same as her destiny. Hers is a mighty but lonely fate, for she is the chosen one—the one who will bring the Time of the Eagle, when the hunted will become the hunters and win back their freedom. It is a destiny that requires the spirit of a warrior and the heart of a healer. But does Avala have the courage to set the Eagle on its flight?
In this epic story about a girl born to greatness, Sherryl Jordan tells an unforgettable tale of destiny, betrayal, and the power of love and faith. "

gusto ko yung books ni Bob Ong. pero di ko pa nabasa lahat. humihiram lang kasi ako haha
101 Ways to Bug Your Parents. Hiniram ko sa friend ko. pambata sya pero i found it hilarious kasi kaya i read it
Series books like Chronicles of Narnia kaso hanggang Prince Caspian lang and Percy Jackson and the Olympians. kakatapos lang ng The Lightning Thief next na ang The Sea Monsters :)
favorite children's book ko ang narnia series! I was stunned when I read the ending @_@... pag ganun klaseng genre, try mo din yung series of unfortunate events
speaking of narnia, yung author nun (cs lewis), try nyo din other works nya
-til we have faces (retelling ng love story ni cupid and psyche)
-screwtape letters (exchange ng letters ng 2 demon, isang elder, isang younger, about advoced on how to influence humans)
nakita ko tong site.. http://download-ebooks-free.net/ ok naman sya.. ;D

hindi ganun ka updated ang website nilang tatlo, pero pag pupunta ka (or tatawag sa phone) and ask for a particular book, mas matutulungan ka nila

pretty unusual book... and creepy too...
what type/genre of books ba binabasa niyo? sinong authors?
fiction - romance, suspense-thriller, crime, adventure, spies, etc.
non-fiction - how-to-dos, business, etc
or kahit ano kung ano available sa bookstore or library?
ako usualy thriller, fantasy, sci-fi, adventure, horror... ginagawa ko kasi i read the first hundred pages, pag naging interesado ko, pinagpapatuloy ko. e madalas yan yung genre that keeps me reading...so yeah

magkakaroon daw next year... kung maganda outcome, sana gawin nila yung 2 kasunod na stories

Napagtripan ko din ang Wimpy Kid at Blood Ninja.
na-bore ako sa Brida ni Coelho, di ako makarelate.
nagustuhan ko ung Veronika Decide Morir, may kabaliwan kasi ako minsan.
Natambay din ako sa bookstores kung may mapagtripan na books pero ngayon busy ako sa ibang activities.

written by someone with a pseudonym of Robert Hamburger. It's book about an obsessions on ninjas in the perspective of a thirteen year old boy...
ganto intro nya...
Dear Stupid Idiots,
A lot of you have been saying that I don't know anything about REAL ninjas. But that's a bunch of bull crap! You dummies don't know anything. And maybe YOU should get a life. I bet a lot of you have never even seen a girl naked! You idiots believe that ninjas had some "code of honor." Yeah right! If by "code of honor," you mean "code to flip out and go nuts for absolutely no reason at all even if it means that people might think you are totally insane or sweet," then you are right. But if you mean a "code to be nice and speak nicely while sharing and not cutting off heads," then you're the biggest idiot ever!!!!!! So if you have any brains, you will shut up and get a life. So go shut up, you stupid idiot.
No thank you,
Robert Hamburger
currently reading james rollins' the last oracle.
website lang yan dati e. nung nakita kong may libro, binili ko agad XD tapos yun nga, yung ghost/aliens parang ganun din, pero about ghosts and aliens naman
recently bought candide. satire.
contemplating kung babasahin na ba ang crime and punishment.
ah.. i like it.
I'll be starting with The Leviathan, probably tomorrow. Hahaha. Nagpapaka socially responsible.
Soc Sci 2 yang Leviathan ah. ;)
currently in the middle of "No Longer Human"
it's so depressing, it's funny
Hindi kasi ako mahilig magbasa ng libro pero mahilig ako mag-collect. Kung magbasa man ako more on General knowledge or hindi novel although nagbabasa rin ako minsan.. Sa school nga halos hindi ko nabubuksan ang mga books ko unless kailangan sa Classroom eh.hehehe.Even book reports ko nga hindi ko binasa eh.hehe
Pero last Monday meron akong binili sa isang bookstore "The Face of the Assassin" ewan kung bakit pero nagustuhan ko lang basahin. hehehe. Like what I said I love collecting books pero hindi ako mahilig magbasa, pero baka tiyagain ko,gaya ng Harry Potter.hehehe. Meron pa akong isang gustong basahin na libro, more than 13 years ko na siya itinatago kasi Elementary pa lang nasa akin na siya, "THE GREAT TRAIN ROBBERY". Gusto ko rin siya basahin dati pa kasi masyadong classic yung setting.

maganda ba ang perks? try ko nga basahin
series daw ung fifty shades? consistent ba na maganda ung mga books?
narinig ko sa kaklase ko na medyo parang fifty shades of grey ata ung perks
ganon? series nga yun alam ko, 50 shades darker ata yung second, ewan ko yung third.
and imo, preview pa lang, mas wholesome at innocent naman yung perks. napaka bold at seductive ng pagkakasulat ng 50 shades. kaya mostly women ang nagbabasa, kinikilig daw sila :-X
OHHHH XD pinapabasa kasi sa akin nung kaibigan ko
As of now, reading City of Bones

ANG BILIS MO MAGBASA :O IDOL!
Ganyan ako kapag walang magawa and walang internet sa bahay., and if hindi ako naglalaro ng volleyball (or kahit anong sports) or nag jojogging. :)) #UltraBookworm lol
I still need to get my computer fixed. argh.
Lord of the rings:fellowship of the ring.... I've been looking for this book for ages.. sa book sale lang pala.... :) As much as possible before I go to sleep, i try to read a book. any book actually.
^ me too. kapag tapos ko na basahin yung mga books ko. re read ulit. or mag babasa ako ng magazines or blogs. I'd rather read than watch senseless telenovela (well para sakin) pero I still watch tv though, kapag GG, VD, WD, Suits, Glee, Grmm and yung iba ko pang pinapanood. (I prefer US series than those cheesy telanovelas)
^ditto.... I like suits, big bang theory.....Anyways, im not ur normal filipino naman kaya i really don't fancy low class, low budget telenovelas. Sobrang babaw ng story....Huwag masyado apektado. This is my opinion.
OT: I prefer mystery novels or sci-fi. Yung may mga powers-powers, magical or mythological theme...
have you tred Star Trek? or Star Wars?
They're gonna gobble you up.

^I'm not into sci fi pero gusto ko yung may mga dragons, powers, anything na adventurous and somewhat childish.
^ same here. Right now im hooked up to Merlin....a british series about merlin and king arthur....powers powers and stuffs.
^hahhaa. parang english barok lang ako....powers powers and stuffs...hahahhaha
Merlin... parang I've heard of it na. (shit ako din *puke) ako sa Grimm ngayon. tagal pa ng airing ng iba eh. Question, on going na ba season three ng walking dead?

i really love books and dream ko magkaroon ng sariling library! taong library ako, esp nung college. muntik na nga akong maging booklover of the year nung grad, disqualified nga lang dahil although ako ung may pinakamaraming nahiram na graduating stud eh may 2 books akong di nasauli on time (pwede mo sya hiramin for max of 3 days, thereafter may penalty na Php 10/day late return fee).
preferred ko books re history & geography. :)
Wow pareho tayo joseph mahilig din ako sa books about history and geography. Pero ako tamad magbasa. Di ko alam naka-graduate ako pero mabibilang ang araw na nagbasa ako ng libro. Pero mahilig ako sa libro, ayoko din nakakakita ng mga sirang books. May times pa na natutuwa ako kapag marami books sa paligid. Hahaha.

Try reading The Prize by Daniel Yergin. It's about oil and how it influenced history and geopolitics. You'll learn history of the major oil companies. Mapapahanga ka sa mga nagtayo ng Royal Dutch Shell.
