Oh, so some of my classmates are into books, and I’m starting to love reading books or novels. Last Sunday afternoon, we went to a National Bookstore branch, because I planned to buy four books.

Fallen by Lauren Kate

There’s something achingly familiar about Daniel Grigori.

Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price’s attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at the Sword & Cross boarding school in sultry Savannah, Georgia. He’s the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are all screw-ups, and security cameras watch every move.

Even though Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce—and goes out of his way to make that very clear—she can’t let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, she has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret…even if it kills her.

Dangerously exciting and darkly romantic, Fallen is a page turning thriller and the ultimate love story.

Chords of Strength: A Memoir of Soul, Song and the Power of Perseverance by David Archuleta

Runner-up on American Idol and successful music artist David Archuleta was named one of the “Breakout Stars of 2008″ by Forbes magazine and landed the number two spot on the Billboard charts.

In Chords of Strength David shares his unexpected and inspiring journey, including how he overcame vocal cord paralysis to achieve his dream of being a singer. He reveals his insecurities about his voice-before realizing that he loved the way singing made him feel more than he disliked the way he sounded. In this personal memoir, David opens up about the strength he draws from his unshakable faith and unyielding family. He pays tribute to those who continue to inspire him and through their example help him believe in himself, his talent, and his abilities.

Intimate and uplifting, Chords of Strength allows a unique glimpse of the man behind the music and offers hope to anyone with a passion and a dream.

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner: An Eclipse Novella by Stephenie Meyer

Fans of the Twilight Saga will be enthralled by this riveting story of Bree Tanner, a character first introduced in Eclipse, and the darker side of the newborn vampire world she inhabits.

Bree Tanner can barely remember life before she had uncannily powerful senses, superhuman reflexes, and unstoppable physical strength. Life before she had a relentless thirst for blood…life before she became a vampire.

All Bree knows is that living with her fellow newborns has few certainties and even fewer rules: watch your back, don’t draw attention to yourself, and above all, make it home by sunrise or die. What she doesn’t know: her time as an immortal is quickly running out.

Then Bree finds an unexpected friend in Diego, a newborn just as curious as Bree about their mysterious creator, whom they know only as her. As they come to realize that the newborns are pawns in a game larger than anything they could have imagined, Bree and Diego must choose sides and decide whom to trust. But when everything you know about vampires is based on a lie, how do you find the truth?

In another irresistible combination of danger, mystery, and romance, Stephenie Meyer tells the devastating story of the newborn army as they prepare to close in on Bella Swan and the Cullens, following their encounter to its unforgettable conclusion.

I was only able to buy three books, because Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater was out of stock. I’m also planning to buy Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay, all by Suzanne Collins. I heard lots of good reviews about this novel.

I haven’t started to read my new books yet, but I’ll make time for it.

By the way, I bought two Mix-Style Headphones–one for me and one for my brother.

It’s Father’s Day today. Happy Father’s day to your dads. I love you so much, pa! Thanks for everything.

Sorry for the very short entry, by the way. I’ll update again soon.

By the way, it’s my dad’s birthday today. I don’t know what to say, I’m so speechless this time, but I can say that I love him so much!

BTW, there’s a new Cherry Splasher! Please visit Dancing-InTheRain.CherrySplash.Net.
