I don't understand what all the hype is about. Tried to watch the movie once but couldn't hold my attention. I'm more of a chick lit and romance type of person. And yes, agree with Jillian, romances are an important part of pleasurable reading. There's always a good loving and touching ending...and it makes you believe that there is so much love all around you. I just passed by the library@orchard 'I Love My Library' board on my way in to the workroom and saw that someone said on the board that they will miss us 'cos we have got the best manga collection and I do agree with them. It's one of our most popular collections and the good news is that we have added new titles in that collection. Ok, I’m also going to own up to not having read Harry Potter.

I tried to read one of the book... once. Gave up. Just couldn't sustain my interest. I have to admit I have never read Harry Potter. I tried to read one of the book… once. Gave up.
