Update (As of February 9, 2012)

Hi everyone! Things have been a wee bit hectic with prelims coming soon. I've read loads of books meanwhile, and hope to post more reviews soon rather than leaving them in Draftsland. Thanks for all your support and encouragement. Authors/publicists: I'm currently not accepting any review requests as stated in the updated policy, but I do so appreciate that you consider this blog a worthy avenue for your books.

Seen on Singaporean Shores

on Thursday, 6 May 2010
I know how much of a big deal it is for authors to know that their books have travelled far and wide, so here is a new feature showcasing books that have been captured at bookstores and libraries all over Singapore--or wherever I happen to be when I snapped them at that moment.

Authors, I really hope your Google Alerts work right now. Oh, hey Dia Reeves, Bleeding Violet copy #98767 says 'Hi'.

I envy that you have Borders there... I felt overwhelmed when I first saw the YA section and had to go back another day because I didn't know what to buy there on Day 1 -___-

These pictures are like eye candy to me. And the library you go to has a greater YA selection than my local library.

Wow its so cool seeing the books on the other side of the world and there's both US and UK versions of the books too.
