Just completed baca Shopaholics & Baby by Sophie Kinsella

Beli kat mph 1 utama, hardcover rm69.90



Summary of the book From publisher,  Becky Brandon (n閑 Bloomwood) is pregnant! She couldn抰 be more overjoyed杄specially since discovering that shopping cures morning sickness. Everything has got to be perfect for her baby: from the designer nursery . . . to the latest, coolest pram . . . to the celebrity, must-have obstetrician.

But when the celebrity obstetrician turns out to be her husband Luke抯 glamorous, intellectual ex-girlfriend, Becky's perfect world starts to crumble. She抯 shopping for two . . . but are there three in her marriage?

it's really entertaining to read about her again .. and i finished off the book within 2 days (despite busy working days!) But it's a bit sad when they have no home to live after they sold off their flat and the owner of the house they wanted to buy, differ they preference to sell the house to another couple.

Alizawati82

Tajuk : Katerina
Penulis : Ahadiat Akashah

Baru jer habis baca novel nie. Pinjam dari Azma. Novel ke-3 yang dapat aku habiskan dalam masa 2 minggu.

Novel nie mengisahkan Katerina atau kate yang begitu setia cintanya pada Kasyah. Walau Kasyah sudah berkahwin dengan Maya. Dia tetap setia menunggu walau dirinya menderita. Tapi sapa jangka kan? Maya meninggal masa melahirkan Athirah. Then cerita mereka bermula bila mereka bertemu kembali. Kate masih setia dan mereka bercinta kembali dan bertunang. Walau mendapat tentangan dari keluarga Kate tapi akhirnya ayah Kate mengalah jugak. Kate nie bleh dikata seorang yang keras kepala gak ler. Maklumlah anak tunggal.

PA!PLEASE UNDERSTAND my feeling! i抦 sure he抯 the right guy!
He left you before! Right?
Entah! Dah dia tinggalkan kamu, kamu masih nakkan dia lagi!
Bukan macam tu ma!
Bukan macam mana lagi? Kamu nie lembik sangat! Dah dia tinggalkan kamu pun kamu masih nakkan dia.
Entahlah..mama tak setuju kamu nakkan  dia balik!
Pa..please-
Mama tak sanggup tengok kamu derita lagi kate! Siang malam mama doa pada Tuhan supaya kamu okey semula tau tak!
Kate okey pun pasal dia-
I抦 happy!
Happy? Happy apa? Berkurung tak keluar rumah kamu kata happy!
You must be strong, darling! You are too weak! Papa tak pernah melarang kamu pilih siapa pun. Papa tak marah kamu berkawan dengan dia dulu! Ada papa larang? Ada papa marah? Cuma.. satu yang papa tak setuju..dia tinggalkan kamu begitu sahaja-
Ada sebab pa-
Sebab dia kawin perempuan lain?
Yang terbaik adalah dia pa-
Pa..please! please understand me!
You must understand me first.. before you want me to understand you! Apa yang papa dengar dia tu tinggalkan kamu kawin dengan orang lain-
But-
Understand?
Are you deaf? Tak dengar apa papa Tanya?
Good! That抯 better. Now..can you please answer my question honestly and nicely?
Will you?
Yes!
Good!
Okey..betul tak dia kawin perempuan lain?
Betul!
Papa juga tahu yang dia ada seorang anak..perempuan..betul?
Betul!
Isteri dia meninggal dunia sewaktu lahirkan anak, betul?
Yes papa!
Well.. I want you to be happy darling! You are my only child. I have no one else. Dah tentu papa nak anak papa happy! Papa dah cakap awal-awal lagi..papa tak pernah memilih siapa yang kamu nak jadikan suami. To be honest..i like him. Tapi Cuma satu saja yang menjadi tanda Tanya..kenapa dia tinggalkan kamu semata-mata mengahwini perempuan lain? What ever reason..he is not honest. Dia jadikan kamu pilihan kedua! Cuba bayangkan isteri dia masih hidup..will he marry you? No isn抰 it? He will never marry you! Dia bergembira! Bersukaria! Papa gerenti dia takkan ingatkan kamu. Nak buat apa? Dia dah ada famili dia sendiri! Come on darling..dia hanya ambil kesempatan diatas kelemahan kamu. Forget him! You have nothing to lose! Trust me!
Okey darling? Will you forget him?
Will you Kate?
I can抰 papa! I can抰
Why?
I don抰 know..
Don抰 even give a try?
Not that easy pa.
Why?
How do I know!
I told you..you are too weak!
I am!
You don抰 even give a try!
I did!
Try harder!
Not that papa!
Then what?
I don抰 know!
To be honest.. I cannot live without him. I love hom so much! Whether you allow me or not.. I抦 going to marry him!
Crazy!
You are to weak darling-
Please papa..please bless me..
I hope you are right!
Mama..please bless me-
No! I can抰 stop you. But I will never give you my blessing-
Mama-
Let me go-
Mama
Don抰 touch me-
It抯 ok darling. Your mama is very upset. Let her!
No!
It抯 okay! Stop crying!
Oh papa! Do you bless me-
As long you are happy!
Oh papa thank you..

Pastu Kate dan Kasyah pun bertunang. Berbeza latar belakang. Tapi mereka berdua bahagia walau ada insan lain yang tak boleh tengok mereka bahagia. Sampailah Kate pergi South Africa sebab syarikat dia mendapat kontrak di sana. Selepas tu, semuanya berlaku. Bermula dengan kehadiran gadis kampung bernama Zahirah bekerja di tempat kasyah bekerja. Gadis kampung yang nampak sopan, bertudung tapi

i just finished reading the lovely bones by alice sebold...

Summary - On her way home from school on a snowy December day in 1973,14-year-old Susie Salmon ("like the fish")  is lured into a make shift underground den in a cornfield and brutally raped and murdered, the latest victim of a serial killer--the man she knew as her neighbor, Mr.Harvey.

  Alice Sebold's haunting and heartbreaking debut novel, The Lovely Bones, unfolds from heaven, where "life is a perpetual yesterday" and where  Susie narrates and keeps watch over her grieving family and friends, aswell as her brazen killer and the sad detective working on her case. As Sebold fashions it, everyone has his or her own version of heaven. Susie's resembles the athletic fields and landscape of a suburban high school: a heaven of her "simplest dreams," where "there were not eachers.... We never had to go inside except for art class.... The boys did not pinch our backsides or tell us we smelled; our textbooks were Seventeen and Glamour and Vogue."

  The Lovely Bones works as an odd yet affecting coming-of-age story. Susie struggles to accept her death while still clinging to the lost world of the living, following her family's dramas over the years like an episode of My So-Called Afterlife. Her family disintegrates in their grief: her father becomes determined to find her killer, her mother withdraws, her little brother Buckley attempts to make sense of the new hole in his family, and her younger sister Lindsey moves through the milestone events of her teenage and  young adult years with Susie riding spiritual shotgun. Random acts and missed opportunities run throughout the book--Susie recalls her sole kiss with a boy on Earth as "like an accident--a beautiful gasoline rainbow." Though sentimental at times, The Lovely Bones is amoving exploration of loss and mourning that ultimately puts its faith in the living and that is made even more powerful by a cast of convincing characters. Sebold orchestrates a big finish, and though things tend to wrap up a little too well for everyone in the end, one can only imagine (or hope) that heaven is indeed a place filled with such happy endings.

sounds intriguing eh? after hearing rave reviews about this book I had very high expectationsfor it but unfortunately i found it incredibly boring and plain dull... i really don't understand wat the fuss is all abt...none of the characters are strong enough to make the book readable...story line mendatar aje and the ending, alahai...its a total waste of time...
