Everything was wrong, and she had no way of putting things right - that gave her a sense of complete powerlessness. (Veronika Decides to Die)

veronika decided to hide

Thursday, April 24, 2008

i’ve been trying to get hold of a copy of veronika decides to die but they don’t have it in gateway both national and fully booked.  they don’t have it in national-sm fairview either!  is there a hoarding of this book that i don’t know about?

i’ve read vdtd a couple of years ago when i was in college and i remember that i didn’t appreciate the story.  maybe i can’t relate to it back then.  siguro to better appreciate paulo coelho’s works, the reader has to have more experiences in life.  or siguro mababaw lang talaga ako.  hahaha.

so now, i just borrowed my officemate’s copy.  i haven’t sat down to really focus on reading.  i’m excited to read but i’m reserving it for the galera trip. 

reading veronika decides to die is very timely for me.  i think veronika and i have a lot of things in common.  everything is supposedly okay naman but just like her i feel that something is also missing.  what is missing?  i don’t know.  well, maybe i know but i just choose not to think about it.  quarterlife crisis ito!  hehehehe.

Hello!

I’m a big fan of Paulo Coelho! You will love this! He’s the first best-selling
author to be distributing for free his works on his blog:
www.paulocoelhoblog.com

Have a nice day!

You should’ve gone to fully booked serendra. I think that is the most complete bookstore.

I bought my copy at cash and carry national last year. So don’t know if they still have it.

it’s a very good read. i agree.. one has to have more experiences in life or pwede rin na in touch sya sa emotional aspects ng buhay..

nabasa mo yung Warrior of the light? ako di pa.. on que pa sa reading list ko. :)
