I Love Books

I love reading. If my memory did not fail me, I have start my love for books since I was 7. I will read all my textbooks before the start of the school year. I will borrow books from the library and I cannot stop reading until I have finish the book.

However, I did not continue my love for books when I was preparing for my "O" levels. My grades were not very good and I was forcing myself to spend more time on textbooks instead of story books. 

I began my love of reading again when I have graduated from uni. However, I was addicted to non-fiction books this time. I started reading all kinds of with self-help books & books about cats and city planning. Recently, my favorite topics are on internet marketing & business books.

One of my dream was to own a rent/sell type of bookshop so that I could read all day in my shop and earn my money at the same time. I wish it will happen one day. 



I have made another lens for the books that I want to read.

His last book before he left Singapore. You will read it if you have read his first two books. However, I find that it was not as good or humorous as his previous books. Maybe this time, he has focus more on places to visit in Singapore rather than the culture side.0 points
