Its been almost a month since my last good read , which was my second helping of Arthur Golden's 'Memoirs of a geisha'. A damned good book , if you ask me.

Yeah , i'm guilty of a funny habit of re-reading books.. i must have read Laura Ingalls Wilder's little house series at least six times.

At this unearthly hour of 5am , what more can one do except read ?

I've recently picked up a random book ( its as random as it gets.. I ran my fingers over a shelf and pulled it out with my eyes closed) from a second hand bookstore for a steal of 5 bucks. A bit tattered and torn maybe , but otherwise in good condition.

The book turned out to be Jeffery Archer's 'As the crow flies' ( if im not wrong it means the shortest distance taken to travel between two points )and i must say i wasnt very impressed by the somewhat corny sounding title though the author's name did ring a bell.

Anyway.


I'm almost almost halfway thru this book and yes i'm rather captivated by it , not bad for someone who detests reading lengthy novels that seem to go on forever like this one.

At least there's no pictures of swashbuckling men with dainty women in hot corsets for its cover and with names liek Gabrielle or Raphael for its characters ( think nora roberts )
