book binge

ever since i got my kindle last week, i've been on a book binge...

here's what i've read so far:


a really interesting read... it's incredible how our first 9 months of our lives affect us more than we think!!!

here's a new finding... 20% of our IQ is determined by what mum ate/felt/used/did while she was preggy with us. makes me want to interview mom!!!

read an interview with the author here, to get more of an idea.

next book, this:


awww... what a heartwarming book about a little english island after the german occupation.

the whole book is written in letters -- genius!

it has the quirkiness and warmth of that tv show picket fences -- remember that?

third book, this:


this one reminds me of the two of us...

it's about two 'different' sisters with a bit of mystic powers... with special potions, their boys, their estranged mom, and everything in between.

it reminds me a lot of 'like water for chocolate' :)

hmmm... what to read next?
