Muselisation

Jill Mansell had always been my favorite writer, come to think about it, it's been a few years since I started reading her book back in uni days.

As the saying always goes, "One man's meat is another man's poison." I guess not many friends around me appreciate this sort of scandalous novel as much as I do. Nonetheless, I believe there are many more others out there who are just as scandally in love with Jill's novel.

Anyway, in this most recent book of hers "Rumour Has it", I do see a little of change from her past novels. The magnetic force about her books that keeps you going back to her are definitely the kinky stories and how she was able to fill you in with the bit of kinky details yet pulling the apple an inch away from just as you were about to get it. However, in this new book of her, she added a bit more emotions to it. This morning as I was reading chapter 47 on the bus, I was on the verge of tearing when reading about how Stella, one of the quite irritating character in the book, pass away. Seriously, it's been quite a long while since I had read a book that made me tear over for. This book definitely have got some substance there...

I have always remember, the first ever book that I was able to complete reading without having my mother to scream her head off me was "Red Sky in the Morning". That was my literature book in sec 1. Can't really remember who the author was, but trust me, out of the 4 times that I had read this book, not a single time I never shed a tear when Ben died. Maybe I should try reading it for the 5th time and see how things goes...
