Helped me understand the English -
I have to work with many English people and it is very vital for me to spot whether they are being sarcastic or they actually mean what they say. I also need to acquire the ability to read between the lines and try to understand what they really mean. This book has helped me a lot.
It's a very int ... (

The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time




Page turner -
I never thought I could finish reading it so fast but it is really a page turner. I just want to keep reading and reading until the end. The plot is very good so I just want to turn the page and find out what's next. It is also a wonderful story to look into the mind of an unordinary soul.

So much more than the film -
I was fascinated by Aron's story so I bought the book and want to know how he describes from his own personal experience. It turned out that he writes about a lot of his trips before the accident - he could have died a thousand times because he just likes thrills and excitement. He is touched by Chr ... (

White Tiger is better -
The White Tiger is just sooooo good so I feel a bit disappointed at this but then it's hard to compare because this book is not a long story. It consists of many short stories that are not meant to be developed like the White Tiger... oh well...

- Essays in Love (233)
-
By Alain De Botton
-

Witty -
I always like Alain's sentences - just so elegantly formed and full of wisdom. After reading it, I felt like I've learned some philosophy of love but been spared the boredom of a typical philosophy book (in my opinion). It made you think and made you want to re-read so as to 'taste' the book in a de ... (

They attribute everything to "he's just not that into you" without giving insights into a man's mind / psychology. I want to read more about reasons and explanations, not the results.

Embroideries
Very funny and because having been to Iran, I come to understand how women come together and enjoy an insider's time together and bond together by sharing gossipy kind of topics.
Of course women of all cultures do the same thing ;) but it is exactly because the setting is Iran that makes it special ... (continue)
