Anathema-Book One in the Cloud Prophet Trilogy

This one piece written by Megg Jensen I read on wattpad. Not a bad one, in fact quite interesting for me as the subject matter differs from the common ones that I know of. It's the story of Reychel, a slave girl with powerful magical power of reading the clouds.

Angels and Demons

Within this month of August, managed to finish Dan Brown's Angels and Demons on Aldiko reader. Became interested to read after watching the movie on Astro. Thought of getting clearer perspective on the author's descriptions on Illuminatus, pope related matters and Vatican City insides. There were quite a lot of twists differing between the novel and the movie. Most surprising difference, Langdon was with the Camerlegno in the copter with the antimatter canister flying heavenward, but in the movie Langdon was on the ground with Vittoria and the many thousands of spectators in awe at St Peter's. In my opinion, the novel was more exhilirating.

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte

How amazing. I actually managed to complete this sweet novel of 555 pages on my HTC Flyer's Reader App. Have been seeing this title in the top lists of most popular read but never had the opportunity to actually commit to read. Jane's life has been a truly heart rending one. Sad early childhood, her narration of being bullied by her cousins made my blood boil, gosh, there were times when I really felt like giving the spoilt brat John some good slappings. I think her enduring 8 years at the spiteful Mr Brocklehurst's Lowood institution for young girls has indeed crystallised her perceptions about life. Most interesting read for me would be the several chapters of how Jane persisted being head strong, firm and all the way motivated by her deep love for her Master Edward Rochester surviving and maintaining calm through the choking weeks of being brain washed and courted by her handsome cousin St. John for her to marry him and travel with him for missionary work to India. Definitely a worthy read of a classical novel.
