The True Blood Books at the moment by Charlaine Harris. Not bad.

Before that I read the latest book by Sarah Waters, The Little Stranger. Beautiful but not as much as her previous titles.

I'm reading the lost symbol by Dan Brown. It's really good. A bit like all his other stories but still a thrilling read.

I'm also reading The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis and the first book in the Lord of the Rings series.

I just got a collection of Agatha Christie stories. I used to only stick to her Hercule Poirot, but her Parker Pyne and other characters are entertaining as well.

Just finished pieces of you by tablo last night



From the sky, To the ground
Rain is falling all around
Thunder rain and wind
A song of storms begins

Play a song, A melody
Then everybody will see
The hero of time
Has come

よいお年を。 - 12-31-2009, 10:57 PM

After a long time having three books read half and waiting to be finished I read another one in one week: Aşk by Elif ŞAFAK. Its English versions title is Fourty Rules of Love.

You are in the middle of love or out of it. Yearning for love.

The story begins with Ella, who is 40 years old, American woman, married with three children. She finds a job as assistant of an editor and her first work is to read an infamous author’s book, Sharia of Love, about Sufism. There is novel in novel. Beside Ella’s story the story of Rumi and Shams in 13th century of Konya is being told to reader.
I enjoyed reading about Sufism, Rumi and Shams story. However Ella’s story sounded weak to me.


愛の中央または愛の外側にです。愛にあこがれています 。

昨日は「Elif Şafak」の本「Aşk(愛) 」を読み終(お)えました。 話は40歳で、3人の子供の、母親(ははおや)、アメリカ� �エラから始まります。彼女はエディターのアシスタン� �の仕事を見つけます。彼女は仕事でスーフィズムにつ� �ての作家(さっか)の本「愛のシャリーア」を読みます。 小説(しょうせつ)の中でもう一つの小説があります。 エラと作家のストーリーに沿(そ)って13世紀(せいき)のコ ンヤでルーミーとシャムセ・タブリーズのストーリーが 読者(どくしゃ) に語(かた)られます。

ルーミーとシャムセ・タブリーズのストーリーとスーフ ィズムは面白かったです。でも、エラのストーリーは私 には感心(かんしん)を与(あた)えなかった。

I am currently on Altogether Dead. Read up to like 60 or so. Now I can't really get the energy to pick it up and read a good amount of it. I'll try though.
