Thanks for the Memories by Cecelia Ahern

Thanks for the Memories; this book delivers a magical tale about a woman, Joyce Conway, who begins to have memories and skills of Justin Hitchcock, after a terrible accident and a blood transfusion. Cecelia Ahern nicely narrates Joyce’s Journey through the memories of Justin.

I enjoyed the book since the plot really grabbed my attention, and so Joyce’s father Henry. He was hilarious and a wise man. The funny dialogs between Joyce and Henry helped me to make the story enjoyable. I jumped out laughing when I was reading the part that their visit to the antique roadshow and steal a bin to appear on the TV program.

For me this story is a mystery than a romance, though there is romance. It is very light hearted magical tale and easy read.

My Rating: 3 out 0r 5

Captain America: The Winter Soldier

After being frozen for half a century, Cap is back to save the world. Welcome back Captain America for your second solo, “save the world” battle. When I saw the first trailer of Captain America: The Winter Soldier I was so excited and couldn’t wait till it hit the cinema, though the first Captain America movie isn’t in my “fantastic movies” list. It has been two years since the New York battle and Steve Rogers is slowly adapting to the modern world of digital era. The black and white world he used to live no longer exists, no one can clearly separate the good guys from the bad guys. It seems that his superior Nick Fury also has his own agenda and Steve cannot trust anyone. With the death of Nick Fury, Captain becomes a fugitive and teams up with Black Widow and Falcon, and with few people he knows he can trust, to unravel the conspiracy that has been hidden behind the S.H.I.E.L.D for nearly 70 years. Steve Rogers is a trustworthy military veteran who always va...

A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness

I must confess that I didn’t just like this book, I loved this book. Deborah Harkness’s A Discovery of Witches is a mixture of fantasy, history, science and romance, which is a perfect read for me. In this fascinating world of A Discovery of Witches , vampires, witches and daemons have to live without interfering into human lives while hiding their true nature from people and pretending as humans. Thus, different creatures have to live separately from each other and it is forbidden to associate with different groups since humans become suspicious when these different creatures blend. Diana Bishop, a witch, is falling in love with Mathew Clermont, a vampire, in this forbidden world after discovering a long lost manuscript that contains the origin and the evolution of all creations. Diana and Mathew have to protect themselves from the congregation of creatures while learning to control the great power that Diana possesses without her knowledge. The research on h...

Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins

I have heard nothing but good about this book, so I thought of give it a try. The first time I got this book to my hand I really liked its outlook, its cover, its quality and all things. I knew that this is a teenage romantic story, but I expected this would be different from other stories that I have read before. But to my disappointment I didn’t see much difference on the plot from other romance stories. It might be because I’ve read a lot of stuff like this, or watched lots of movies similar to this plot, and it’s something that happens in real life sometimes. So the plot was really predictable to me and it didn’t surprise me or startle me at all. But things I love about this plot - the book takes place in Paris, and the happily ever after ending. Stephanie Perkins’ characterization is really awesome. Those characters were very realistic. I really enjoyed Anna, the way she thinks and the way she talks is unique and kind of funny, but she’s not a perfect girl. Also I...
