Procrastination

Hmm... a topic that is indeed close to my heart. Well, I feel somethign akin to a dull stab everytime someone says this word so it is figuratively correct. Anyway a psychotherapist who also practices EFT, Gloria Arensen has written a book called Procrastination-Nation. I've yet to find it here and a search on Kinokuniya's website shows it's not yet available and not just here in Malaysia; It turned out completely blank which means Kinokuniya haven't had a whiff of it yet. Anyway head out to Gloria Arensen's website to learn more of this interesting book. Her blog is procrastination blog isn't updated much tho, she was more into writing the book than blogging. It still has great information in it so definitely worth a check.

Exp books?

Well, it has come to my attention that the book with the offending price tag was from a publisher that the author herself is unhappy with. So let's hope it's just the publisher that caused the price increase rather than a general book price hike. Anyway it'll take some more months since bookstores generally raise the price of newer books when a price increase happens. At least that was how it was when our currency depreciated massively last time.

Oh the publisher is HarperCollinsUK and the RM50+ paperback is The Spirit Stone, Book Two of the Silver Wyrm or as HarperCollinsUK printed on the cover that I have here, Book 5 of the Dragon Mage which is most definitely wrong. Can't say I'm fond of this publisher right now.

Malaysian Book Lovers Shafted!

Oh man, it's been so long since I last updated. This I have to write. Book lovers in Malaysia. Mourn the easy days. I just got a message from an avid book reader that new mass paperback books are now RM50++.

I'll be buying everything online then it seems. A few books plus bulk postage... It'll be cheaper. I can't believe this is happening. Am dreading my next trip to a bookstore. If it's true then no more bookstores for me. Say NO to unfair prices. Don't let whoever it is responsible extort you. We have alternatives! Books are for life~~~
