Reading List


For my ten day or so break, I plan to read three books. These titles, I've already started reading a while back but I didn't get to finish. Because I don't exactly remember what I read before, I start reading from the beginning. 

Nineteen Eighty-Four




1. 1984, George Orwell 






The Autumn of the Patriarch (P.S.)




2. The Autumn of the Patriarch, Gabriel Garcia Marquez






Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking



3. Blink, Malcolm Gladwell







Yesterday, I couldn't resist buying Elizabeth Kostova's sophomore novel, The Swan Thieves. I enjoyed The Historian so much, that I didn't think twice in buying her new novel. I do hope I will like it as much. As for The Historian, I am honestly looking forward to its movie adaptation. Though there is a common notion that movie adaptations usually suck, and I do adhere to this, I want to know how other people see a book I like. 

The Swan Thieves: A Novel


4. The Swan Thieves, Elizabeth Kostova



I hope to lessen my tally of unread books by at least three. :)
