My Third Free Book


Happy New Year!!! It is now officially 2013 and the year started awesomely. If I only knew, our library started giving free novel books again when the classes resumed by January 03. Today is January 05, and I am pleased to say that I am still satisfied because I got another chance to take home another thick book.

In the past, I had acquired two novels. So far, only the first is finished. I’m just starting the second book and here comes the third one. I have so many pending books to read and they just keep on coming to me. Hehe..

Anyway, to give you a preview of its story, it is about an American writer who tells about his secret. By the way, the book is entitled "My Secret History: by Paul Theroux. According to the synopsis, “...He tells us that it is his secrets which made him a writer...”

As a mass communication student, it pretty much attracted me because I also write. Right now, I am making this web log entry. Back in high school, I wrote in the news section of our school paper. As of lately, I have listed ideas for stories that would be good for novel. I don’t know what the main character of this story wrote about, but I also liked it because of the author’s note that “some of the events and places depicted in this novel bear a similarity to those in my own life...”

I would also like to know the writing style of the book because it was published in 1989, four years before I was born. So this is my life, and I hope that one day, I would also be able to publish my own book containing my own story. Cheers!
