Giddens' Books

Previously, before Giddens came to Penang, it is so hard to get his books in the Popular book store. Now, the situation changed. I went to the Popular (Prangin Mall Branch) on last Thursday and I saw so many of his books!!!


See, there are more than 10 books, total of 18 books!!! The above 2 books on the right, 8 books on the center row, including the killer series, and another 8 books on the bottom row, which only can see 3 (月老, 红娘 & 等一个人咖啡) and 1/4 (少林寺第八铜人) of them from the photo. Aiya, why I didn't take the full photo?? I just notice now.

The books are:

绿色的马 *
依然九把刀 *
那一年 我们一起追的女孩 #
杀手 登峰造极的画 #
杀手 风华绝代的正义
杀手 夙兴夜寐的犯罪 #
杀手 流离寻岸的花
恐惧炸弹
卧底 *
慢慢来 比较快 *
月老
红娘
等一个人咖啡
少林寺第八铜人 *
打喷嚏
爱情 两好三坏
妈 亲一下
在甘比亚钓水鬼的男人

Luckily, I bought 5 of them on the spot the other day when I met Giddens. On that day, the books sold at RM24.90. Now, in Popular, the books sell at RM37.20, RM12.30 difference!!

Those mark with # are the one that I have finished reading. Oh gosh.... It seems like I was only finished 3 of his books! I still have a lot more to go. Currently, I'm reading 荒村公寓 by 蔡骏. In English, I translate it to The Apartment of an Abandoned Village (荒村=Abandoned Village, 公寓=Apartment). I will write about it in a later time.

See the * mark beside those title? There are the books that I don't have yet! So hor, if you see this, you know what to do liao la..... Hahahaha.
