Finished Reading: The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie.

A most shocking and sad end! I just didn't expected it to be so -well I had my own suspecions, but I just pushed them away. Agatha Christie is a genius, she makes the most uexpected twists, she just makes you believe in things, and then you're forced to let go of it all. But I'll provide my heart no more pain by reading her novels, for I mostly like happy endings.

Book Haul

I've bought one book this month - which I'm going to do every month God willing - and that is Jane Austen's Complete Novels. I've read four of them till now : Pride and Prejudice, Northanger Abbey, Sense and Sensibility, and Persuasion, but I really want to re-read them. So I'm so happy that I actually own that beautiful book.

 

 

I'm so exicted to read it.. ^^

Finished Reading Winnie-The -Pooh! Fascinating!

If anyone should know anything about anything, then I should know that this novel is a piece of awesomeness. Winnie-the-Pooh is officially one of my Favourites-of-all-Time. It dealt with nothing, yet with everything. Its characters were silly yet wise and clever enough to lead a happy life. It is really inspiring to read its sentences and laugh at some stupid situations and conversations. Pooh Bear, Rabbit, Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga, Baby Roo, Owl and Christopher Robin are all Good Friends to me now, and I shall cherish them for ever after, God Willing.

Rilla of Ingleside by L. M. Montegomery

Rilla of Ingleside by Lucy Maud Montegomery

"Rilla of Ingleside (1921) is the final book in the Anne of Green Gables series by Lucy Maud Montgomery, but was the sixth of the eight "Anne" novels she wrote. This book draws the focus back onto a single character, Anne and Gilbert's youngest daughter Bertha Marilla "Rilla" Blythe. It has a more serious tone, as it takes place during World War I and the three Blythe boys—Jem, Walter, and Shirley—along with Rilla's sweetheart Ken Ford, and playmates Jerry Meredith and Carl Meredith—end up fighting in Europe with the Canadian Expeditionary Force."

That was Wikipedia's review on this splendid novel, and here is mine: it is simply MARVELLOUS. I had such a good time reading this novel, along with other ones, because I couldn't be torn off so quickly from this series, so it took me a long period to complete it. I was more than acquainted with the characters, and it nearly broke my heart to be separated from all of the dear ones. I shed some bitter tears over the death of Walter Blythe, and then I laughed at Susan's quotes which were not meant to be jokes at all, and it all came out with a favourite-of-all-time.

A really good read, and you must give it a try. Happy reading!

A.A.Milne: a Tender Writer

I could hardly expect it of a man, I mean writing books for children, and enjoyable ones too. I'm talking about A.A.Milne who wrote "Winnie-the-Pooh". I have nothing in particular against men, but then I think women are much more tenderer, and I really imagined a female author for such a book. But then again there exist some women who can do terrible things, so why can't men do splendid things? I can fathom no reason for it, and that you may tie to.
