Girl Talk: A Shopaholic I Am Not

I have been missing out on Girls Talk for the last three Thursdays. I hate when I had to let the week pass without joining the memes that I used to regularly participate in. But I guess in the circumstances that I am in, I have no choice but to sacrifice some things in order to gain something else. Anyway, I am here now and I have got some time in my hands and so I am typing away this entry.

I am not much of an apparel / accessories shopper but if I am in the mood to go window shopping in this department in the mall or I happen to pass by a shop where I usually buy my clothes, you would find me lingering at the kids apparel section! Lol!

Because I have a little girl for a child, I have this impulse to check out the kids new collection rather than looking for apparel for myself. Since I don't care so much about accessories, I usually don't go beyond checking out watches and wallets.

I am such a bore eh? But bring me to the home section of a department store and you will definitely find me purchasing an item or two even if it was not on budget. And I could window shop till I drop as far as home section is concerned.

GT: Thrilling Page Turners

I have been missing a lot on Girls Talk. That I am. And I didn't even realize that this month's theme is BOOKWORM... Not until today! Ugh! Someone hit me on the head, please. Being the bookworm that I am, I know that I wouldn't want to miss a single entry this month had I known the theme earlier. But past is past. So here I am, trying to make up for the lost time by posting my entry for Thrilling Page Turners. 

I do enjoy reading Sidney Sheldon and I think the first book I ever read Windmills of the Gods. Other books followed. But Marce Kaye, the gracious host of this meme already had all of Sheldon's books so I had to pick another author and that will have to be Nora Roberts. 

Although Nora Roberts is a romantic author at best, she also writes romantic suspense novels. What I love about this author is that she allows her readers to get to know not only the heroine but also of the hero. Her books featured a more in-depth characterization of the hero, because "the books are about two people, and readers should be allowed into the heads and hearts of both." I really find her heroines very endearing, and strong and I think the first I ever read from her novels was from The Stanislaskis series, Falling for Rachel. I fell in love with her characters since then. I have yet to read the In Death series though and I am sure it will be worth my time. Anyone owns a Nora Roberts book? Would really love to know which copy you own so we could exchange books. Promise to return it in the condition when I received it.
