I love to read. I love to write. Access to good books, time to spare to read great books, enjoying the warmth of hundreds of books a year is a blessing. Bacalah semua jenis buku dan novel supaya anda tahu memilih antara karya bernilai dengan karya picisan. Kekadang anda akan berjumpa dengan karya yang rasa macam nak di tong-sampahkan. Sharings on this blog are my very own, honest thoughts on my reads. Saya persembahkan nukilan lensa kreatif kritis Yazlina Saduri.

Trouble
By Jamie Campbell. A nice straight forward light read over relaxing weekend. Over half an hour and it's the end. About a 29ner duped into armed robbery of a bank by her cute rugged boyfriend. I like it.

Blood works
This is a crime novel by Michael Connelly, more of my way of excusing myself from the boring days of having to answer to Monster B. I've always liked thrillers especially legal and police/agents related ones. This is another work of an Irish I think, didn't get time to read more of the author. Overall, I think I like the first half better. The tempo of the story in my views is higher in the initial part. Most of what happens in the second half is quite predictable or at least what I would do if I were McCaleb.
The hero is a retired lawman who was saved from major heart attack by receiving Gloria River's heart. The reason fir him getting the heart without having to wait his turn turns out to be the base of this story. This book starts with the murder of Gloria Rivers and went on with several more mutders, all leading McCaleb ultimately realizing the bloody truth, the antagonist is going far to make him pay for what he did, a revenge.
The ending sentences are rather sweet in the scenario of a crime novel. Probably could be a nice opening lines for a love novel which could be in continuity to this one.
