    hey alaa, i hope you are well! ive been really slow on my reading lately. my university is far too time consuming. but the other day it hit me, i really wish to start reading arabic books. but things that are similar to the ones i read in english only in arabic. i want to strengthen my language and literature in arabic is far more beautiful than any other language. or so i believe. And the only person i thought could help me out with this (since you sort of know my taste in books) was you. could you please suggest an amazing book for me to lose my self into? :P hahaha i will deeply appreciate it. lots of love leena xx

    A couple came upon a wishing well. The husband
    leaned over, made a wish
    and threw in a coin .
    The wife decided to make a wish, too. But she leaned
    over too much, fell
    into the well, and drowned. The husband was stunned
    for a while but then
    smiled "It really works!"

    hahahahahaha, yes i went to the bookstore the other day and just grabbed those two books. ive decided to read things that are out of my usual range. they are both best sellers, so im sure there will be beauty found in either one of them. im currently reading its kind of a funny story. its slightly boring, and its not finishing :( hahaha after that im going to read the road. im just worried tht itll be too "tough" for me. i mean apocalypse stories tend to be really heavy - emotionally- but oh well. hows it going with u in the reading world? :)

    Glad you liked She's Come Undone.
    I saw the writer interviewed and he is very empathetic as a person. Spends a lot of time working with women in a prison, where he supports them using writing to express themselves.
    You sure are reading a wide range of books for such a young person. Should help make you very empathetic in whatever career you settle on.

    you are such a doll, do you know that? that was such a sweet note to see :)
    i will definitely put 'She's come undone' on my plan to read list. ive bought 'water for elephants' but i havent had the time to open a single page. university is so pressuring and hard.
    the thing that i love about a million little pieces is the realism. i love love love james in it. true the substance and sexual parts are kind of disturbing, but there is such beauty in that book that to me those horrible parts seem jst fair.

    oh, let me rephrase tht. its just.. i think james frey wrote down everything to show that his isnt perfect, just like how every other person out there isnt. she swears, and repeats, and beats himself up. but i love how he survives through it all. it did break my heart too, but it definitely taught me that you can do anything if you put your mind to it.
    best wishes xx

    A Viking ship, Osebreg, recovered in a burial mound in Norway:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oseberg_ship

    Fits with my Emily Dickenson quote "There is no frigate like a book" and my love of Bernard Cornwell's 5-volume series on the near conquest of England by Vikings in the 9th century.
