book 9 and a convention
Posted by u l a n on Tuesday, January 30, 2007 at 8:35 PM.
I am now reading my 9th book since the beginning of the year and it's Daughter of the Forest
by Juliet Marillier, a retelling of the fairy tale The Six Swans. It's one of my favorite tales, so when I read about it in one of the LibraryThing threads, I emailed Fully Booked an inquiry and then got a copy a few days later.
This was my one book purchase when I finished my 5th book of the year hehe. I've been faithful to my book rule, but I'm afraid that come the weekend, I shall be severely tested. I'll be going to the Read Or Die book convention at the Hotel Intercon in Makati where, if I finish books 9 and 10 in time, I am allowed one purchase.
Right. Good luck to me.
In any case, I already know what that one purchase will be. I'm itching to get Ptolemy's Gate by Jonathan Stroud, as I loved the first two books of the Bartimaeus Trilogy. Kick ass, they do.
In other news: As of last night, I am happily back to my ideal personal schedule. Logout early. Read a bit. Sleep early. Rise early. Run.
Well, gotta go maintain that sked! ;-) Good night.
