I read The Alchemist Again 7 months ago

I just love this Novel. It really touches me from the inside. So I stopped in the middle of my 100 greatest men book, and just read the Alchemist. I needed to read it actually. SO, This is my April Novel. Now I’ll go back to the other book.



I finished the Novel 10 months ago

in 3 days. It was soo exciting I had to finish. I couldn’t put it down. Now I’m starting my second book this year, I don’t know the exact title in English coz I’m reading it in the Arabic version, but it’s about the greatest 100 person that had the most influential effect on all civilizations. It’s really nice.



Starting all over again 10 months ago

this month February. My cousin has given me a novel since some time ago. It’s in Arabic and called “Utopia”. I’ve finally finished “The last lecture”, so i’ll start reading the Arabic novel this month, and try to keep up the “one book/month” goal this time.



only 4 books 14 months ago

I’ve started the 5th, “The last Lecture”
But doesn’t mean that I’ve not read anything else, actually I’ve read lost of papers for my master’s. But still, this is my 5th book this year



Finished Wuthering Heights 15 months ago

a while ago. I really loved, very touching, very tense, full of violent emotions. I really liked it very much.
Now I’m planning to read “The last lecture”, but I won’t start it till Ramadan is over



Wuthering heights 16 months ago

I’ve started reading it…very interesting in the beginning…I saw the movie, so I kind of know the story, but reading it is really different, and needs a lot of focus, there are many many tough words..That’s the thing with reading old classics like this one
Anyway, I like it



BAAAAD 17 months ago

SO, this year, I’ve read “unbearable light”, and “Egypt is not my mother, she is my stop mother”. And now I’m reading “Veronica Decides to die”, very interesting book actually.
But that means only 3 books in 2008…:(( SO BAADDD



Another book 19 months ago

I bought a new book, last Month. It’s a new book here in Egypt, it’s called “Egypt is not my mother, she is my step-mother”. It’s a collection of sarcastic articles that has been written in “The today Egyptian” daily newspaper in the past 2 years. It’s very funny, and yet, I almost cried in some parts. It’s a very nice book, but it’s in Arabic, and probably only interesting to Egyptians, like me :)



Finally I finished 20 months ago

The March Novel, “Unbearable Light”. I didn’t like it much. But I got a new novel, ” Veronica decides to die”, by Paolo Coelho. Since I’ve read “The Alchemist”, I liked it very very much, that I wanted to read another book by “Paolo Coelho. My cousin got me the new book and said it’s very nice. I hope it will be, and I hope I would finish it by the end of April.



I bought a new Novel 21 months ago

this month, actually It’s a collection of short stories called “unbearable light”. I like it. And this will be my first Month “March” to finish a book in it isA
