This book, with the words "die" and "end", in the title.


Matagal na akong hindi nakakabasa ng novel, regardless of the genre. I have books/novels I (haven't/have not) read yet.

I bought the book, as seen above, last Tuesday from National Book Store in Shangri-La Plaza. I originally to buy Stephen King's latest book "The Institute" but I couldn't find the book in both branches of National Book Store in their branches in SM Megamall and Shangri-La Plaza, Powerbooks in Shangri-La Plaza, and Fully Booked in SM Megamall's Mega Fashion Hall.

I just read the few pages of the book. I just started reading the novel. It is under the category (of) young adults fiction.

Books I have not read yet: "Challenger Deep" and "Love & Gravity".

I bought my copy of the book "Challenger Deep" by Neal Shusterman from Powerbooks. I don't remember from their Megamall branch, or from their Shangri-La Plaza branch. I bought the book during their "Mystery Book Date" last year.

Here is the book trailer:



I first learned about the book "Love & Gravity" by Samantha Sotto, when I was in the Robinsons Galleria branch of National Book Store getting some(?) office supplies last February 2017.

One of the cabinets, has/have a display of books, and "Love & Gravity" is one of them.

Here is the book trailer:

"Two by Two" by Nicholas Sparks, and a story in first person point of view.

I'd reading Nicholas Sparks' books/novels, since I watched the film/movie version/adaptation of A Walk to Remember and its novel, way back 2002. The last book I'd read is The Best of Me in 2011, when Nicholas Sparks had his book signing in The Podium mall in Mandaluyong City.

I have the book "The Best of Me" below.


But the book has its new cover.


I currently reading his 2016 book/novel "Two by Two".


While reading the first three chapters, I had this idea will be the format of the story I wanted to write. Yes, I have this dream to be a writer/author.

A book called "Smaller and Smaller Circles."


I haven't seen the movie yet. I don't know why. I just read the first two (2) or three (3) chapters of the book. So, I will not give my review on this book.

I bought this book in SM Megamall branch of Powerbooks. I bought this book because, out of curiosity.
