Fav Author…

Posted by Man-D on Nov 16, 2009 in Books/Novels, My Interest, UnPretentiousMe |

I use to read those books from R.L Stine (yes, the Fear Street series of teen horror books) and Christopher Pike during school time (form 3-5). Now, I’m a Picoult fan. My first book was The Tenth Circle but I love My Sister’s Keeper the most. I cried reading it… hukhuk! Looking forward to watch the movie too (i’m pretty sure i will cry again) ;)

Then came this Brazilian writer by the name of Paulo Coelho. He earned a significant place in my heart when I first read The Alchemist (and I recommended you guys to read this book). It got me hooked now and the next thing I know, me and sis started to collect all the books written by him as you can see below :

1987 - The Pilgrimage
1988 - The Alchemist
1990 - Brida
1991 - The Valkyries
1994 - By The River Piedra I sat Down and Wept
1996 - The Fifth Mountain
1997 - The Manual of the Warrior of Light
1998 - Veronika Decides to Die
2000 - The Devil and Miss Prym
2003 - Eleven Minutes
2005 - The Zahir
2006 - Like the Flowing River
2006 - The Witch of Portobello
2008 - The Winner Stands Alone

 

- our books collection - 

Bought The Alchemist & The Zahir while in Philippines for only RM18++ each, The Winner Stands Alone for P549.00 = RM40.67… that’s damn cheap!!! And now, I need to find the 1994 - Maktub book to complete the collection. Anyone who knows any bookstore that sell this book, please let me know k…

So, who is your favourite author?
