Finished Reading: "Emily of New Moon" by Lucy Maud Montgomery!!


Read from August 12 to 26, 2013 

 

I have always been a huge fan of L. M. Montgomery, and this book is making me fall even more in love with her. I so adore her unique writing style, and very large and creative imagination.

Emily's father is dead, and one of her mother's family members must take her in. So she goes with her Aunt Elizabeth Murray to New Moon and live there a happy life, making new friends, learning new things, and writing new letters and stories, as writing happens to be her favorite hobby. The story might not seem so becoming, but once you're in, you'll never want to be out.

I give this novel five out of five stars because there is no "six out of five stars".

Chapter 3: In Which I Write About The Book That Surprised Me In A Good Way!



This is my favourite cover for this Great Classic! This book was given to me by my cousin, and the only reason I started reading it was the fact that it was written in English. The beginning was actually boring: two men talking and an other one joining them, the three kept talking, but then things started improving in a different and exciting way. Dorian, like a child, started to discover himself, what's wrong and what's good, and here begun the struggle. All in all, this book did surprise me and I'm really grateful that I discovered it!

Finished Reading: The Perks Of Being A Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.



It was a great read indeed, though I had such a painful time skipping through it because it contains some passages I don't like to read, but the whole thing is far from better. One do get something out of it if one is just being a "filter".

 Personally, I like to do some spiritual reflections from time to time while reading a book, and always thank God because I'm a Muslim girl and because I believe in God. Charlie got through hard times because he thinks that no one is there for him. He has not thought of God once, in the whole book (or he forgot Him .. I think there was something but .. I really can't remember), being there for him and never letting him down, so he did what he did and got what he got. 

But again I say that the book is really really really great, I even gave it 4.5 stars out of 5, and yeah! It desevres it!!
