Bookworm Friday - Private Eye - Jonathan Kellerman

Friday, February 3, 2012
Jonathan Kellerman is one of my favorite Crime Fiction Writer of all time. I have many favorite authors but what I like best with Kellerman is his psychological twists which interests me very much. 

I am done with the book and I have to admit it is very intriguing. I purchased the book at BOOKSALE branch in Gaisano CDO. It was very cheap at P 35 (less than a dollar).

I will never forget the day when I found out that my most favorite author died. I immediately read his page in Wikipedia and I cried.  My mum got so confused that she laughed when I told her why I cried. 

The first book of him that I read was State of Fear in 2005. And from then on I have searched high and low in every book sale (I mostly buy books on book sale rather than buying them new) looking for his books. For now I own nine book:

Rising Sun
The Terminal Man
A Case of Need
Congo
The Andromeda Strain
The Lost World
Jurassic Park
Airframe
State Of fear    

Harry Potter

Shelf is from Safari shelf!!

I love the Harry Potter books so much since I was in high school and I own all 7 books. I first heard of the book in my first year enrichment class in Regional Science High School (2001) the summer that I graduated in elementary. I then was looking forward to the book but money was tight then and never had the opportunity to actually purchase the book.

I had been reading paperback novels way before then and was satisfied with what I could borrow from classmates and that I could rent from a neighbor that rents them for 5 pesos or .2 dollars (really cheap).

So I actually read the first book when I was in 2nd year (2002) when a classmate bought it which he borrowed from his sister for our English subject. I begged him to let me borrow the book but he was reluctant since he is sure that his sister will get angry. He said that if I could return the book to him the following day that he might just let have it for 24 hours! 24 hours! How am I supposed to finish the book in 24 hours in between school, house chores and other obligations but I still said yes.
