the zahir.
2:12 AM hmmmm, i finally finished reading the book. i bought it quite a while ago, (before the first round of many CAs i think), but i nv really had the time to read it. and i felt inspired when i saw deb and lilian reading novels, and i was like eh! i do have a novel waiting for me too! it's a book that quite a few pple have read before, lilian thinks that it's not all that inspiring after that, i think ttt thought that it's quite a good read. personally, i think that somehow parts of it are pretty draggy but yet somehow the novel is generally really captivating. it's kind of like i really wanna read it on and on till the end. (but i did skip a couple of pages that were totally BORING.) but the sad thing is that his novels are pretty much similar. i've read two of them so far, the zahir and eleven minutes. though the 2 novels are set in pretty different context and backgrounds, they are both generally about people discovering themselves and the true meaning of love and life, tingled with inspirational stories here and there. it's nice reading such stuff once in a while but i guess i might not go on to read a 3rd book if they're all similar in that sense, or maybe i'll just give it a try. |
