THE INTERESTING BIT

In order to promote reading to others too please do these simple steps.

  • #Tell all your book loving friends.
  • #You may keep the book for 2 weeks (upon recieving it- so notify me when it arrives safely- extensions are negotiable).
  • #After that, please mail it to the next person requesting the book (contact me to get their address). If nobody else has requested the book, simply mail it back to me.


  • Hmm.. I wonder if this crazy idea will actually work...

Swimsuit by James Patterson




Basic plot

Syd, a breathtakingly beautiful supermodel on a photo shoot in Hawaii, disappears. Fearing the worst, her parents travel to Hawaii to investigate for themselves, never expecting the horror that awaits them.

LA Times reporter Ben Hawkins is conducting his own research into the case, hoping to help the victim and get an idea for his next bestseller. With no leads and no closer to uncovering the kidnapper's identity than when he stepped off the plane, Ben gets a shocking visit that pushes him into an impossible-to-resist deal with the devil.

A heart-pounding story of fear and desire, SWIMSUIT transports readers to a chilling new territory where the collision of beauty and murder transforms paradise into a hell of unspeakable horrors. (source)

My review (on Visual Bookshelf)

A very good read (quick too- the large font and short chapters made it very fast paced). It was a very gripping story.The ending seemed a bit rushed though. Reading a book like this, the only thing you can do is pray that such evil does not exist. Hmm.. sadly, it probably does. 4/5

dayah,

how acually this idea works?camana nak tau kalau aku sincere nak baca, atau aku pinjam pastu jual kat pasar tani?

interesting, juz curious.

actually takde gurantee. just hoping that people will be honest. (Plus I will have their full name and mailing address and e-mail adress).

Kalau jual kat pasar tani pun dapat paling RM 10, berbaloi ke dgn dosa mencuri hak org kan?

Setakat buku, hopefully takdelah org nak curi. Lain lah kalau kasi pinjam kereta ke.

Just want to share with other booklovers out there.
