Books

Another idyllic day has gone by and another beautiful bright morning today as i sit facing my laptop, browsing , thinking and writing.

Last week i was trying to concentrate on my revision and put my novel aside but i ended up finishing it instead and found myself in a bookstore hunting for more and with the highest hope that the author has come up with its another sequel.

Love story novel was not really my interest when i have started to love reading , i was more to self-improvement book or autobiographical or book that will enhance my general knowledge about things.It wasnt like love story does not interest me at all rather i was trying to avoid any element that will only bring me back to my own love life that did not work out well.I was very sensitive about it, i guess i was just trying to forget the memories of it.
Anyway, long story short , my friend bought me a book by Ken Follett called "Pillar of the earth".The title itself doesnt really spark anything to me.The story revolved around 12th
century in England about a building of cathedral and i found myself with the book almost all the time and didnt put it down till i have finished.

The story are about a lot of interesting character - Tom the builder who was one of the great mason, who started the foundation of the cathedral which became the most beautiful building in history of Kingsbridge.There were Aliena and his brother who learnt about life the hard way after being ripped off from their royal status.Everything would be different for both of them if only Aliena willing to get married with evil William.There were a lot more family conflict involved not only to the royal family, Tom builder's family but also in the family of the monk who trying to sabotage each other.Prior Philip was among the handful priest who hold the rule of celibecy to end of his life.Towards the end of the story , the author wrote about the love story of Jack Builder and Aliena .It is a happy ending story apart from the death of Tom Builder which almost made me cry.



As soon as i have finished this book , i have bought the sequel of its - " World without end".This one is even more exciting and lots more adrenaline rushed.I found myself holding my tears and the next page there was an anger in me.I cant help myself from having those emotions and it made me kept turning the page.The book is about the grandchildren of Jack Builder and one of them has inherited the passion to build from him and continue to build the most magnificient and tallest building in England after a decade after of the story of 'Pillar of the Earth'.Here, Caris is the most bravest woman in this story and her passion to help the sick people really touched me.As much as she love Merthin , she doesnt want to marry him because she believe that marriage means putting herself and her whole life under the man's order for ever.She sacrifice her love, her true love because she chose her to serve people , to give hope to others when she herself at times seems weak and hopeless especially after Merthin left Kingsbridge.


Theres a lot more about this book that i think the author has really succeed in putting the readers to the edge of their emotion just as what it has done to me.

Right now, im still looking forwards getting his book but it seem like the bookstore in my area provide quite limited choices.I bought new novel , still in the middle of reading it.I wanted to say its a fun book that i was smiling all by myself while reading it at certain page.Yesterday, i was wondering or rather hunting for a new book while waiting for my friend doing her errand.I got my eyes on few books and its a World's book day , they got this best price offered so it occured to me how lucky and happy i was as i walked back to the car park.
