Remember me? and Tuesdays with Morrie
I just finish reading these two books recently.
The first book.
Remember me? by Sophie Kinsella.
She's also the author of Confessions of a Shopaholic.
When twenty-eight-year-old Lexi Smart wakes up in a London hospital, she's in for a big surprise. her teeth are perfect. her body is toned. her handbag is Vuitton. Having survived a car accident -in a Mercedes, no less- Lexi has lost a big chunk of her memory, three years to be exact, and she's about to find out just how much things have changed. Somehow, Lexi's gone from being twenty-five-year-old working girl to being a corporate big shot with a sleek new loft, a personal assistant, a carb-free diet, and a set of glamorous new friends. And who is this gorgeous husband -who also happens to be a multimillionaire? With her mind still stuck three years in the past, Lexi greets this brave new world determined to be the person she...well, seems to be. That is, until an adorably disheveled architect drops the biggest bombshell of all. Suddenly Lexi is scrambling to catch her balance. Her new life, it turns out, comes complete with secrets, schemes, and intrigue. How on earth did all this happen? Will she ever remember? And wht wil happen when she does?
I dunno why but it seems that I like to read books that has to do with having amnesia.lol.
The second book.
Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom
Maybe it was a grandparent, a teacher or a colleague. Someone older, patient and wise, who understood you when you were young and impassioned, helped you to see the world as a more profound place, and gave you sound advice to guide your way through it. For Mitch Albom it was Morie Schwartz, college professor who had taught him nearly twenty years before. Perhaps, like Mitch, you lost track of this mentor as the years passed, the insight faded, and the world seemed colder, Wouldn't you like to see that person again, to ask the bigger questions that still haunt you, and receive wisdom for your busy life the way you once did when you were younger? Mitch Albom got that second chance, rediscovering Morrie in the last months of the older man's life. Their rekindled relationship turned into one final 'class': lessons in how to live. Tuesdays with Morrie is a magical chronicle of their time together.
A tv movie adaptation of this book was made and it was released in 1999.
This book is really great because it teaches you the value of life.
I'm lazy to come up with my own summary so both summary are from the back of the books.*get bricked*
