Books are like magic.

"I believe in the magic of books. I believe that during certain periods in our life we are drawn to particular books-whether its strolling down the aisles of a bookshop with no idea whatsoever of what it is that we want to read and suddenly finding the most perfect , most wonderfully suitable book staring at us right in the face. Or a chance meeting with a stranger or friend who recommends a book we would never originally reach for. Books have the ability to find their own way into our lives.."
                                                    -Cecelia Ahern


You know why I love this lady? Because she speaks my thoughts. Because almost all books she's written takes me to another world. Wait, that happens almost with every book I read but she's one of the writers who I'd love to meet and talk with. She's one of my favorite's and then then there are 2-3 who come under that list too.


                                       
I love how books can inspire you so much, I love how just one story can take you to another world and make you learn so much from it. I love how they can teach you things you had never learnt earlier. Sometimes, I feel like I've learned way from these novels than school. I don't like books with too much fiction or too much romance. I don't like books that involve a lot of supernatural stuff. I don't like books that include way too much romance or old boring high school drama. I don't like books that include too much science. I don't like books that are about murders and finding out this clue to the next..


I love books that speak to you. I love books that are realistic, books that you could relate to. Books that bring out the best in everything, from drama to suspense, to romance. All in one, you know?  I love the kind of books that won't always have a typical ending.I love books that surprise me with the enchantment they hold in those pages.
Right now, I really really need to buy a few Sarah Dessen books, I've read about her and her books and I really think I'd love her books. Can't wait to buy them. Also, if anyone could suggest a few books that I may like, please  let me know.

P.S : I have this fantasy of going to Ireland and all the more, after reading Cecelia Ahern books, her stories always take place in Ireland. Also,Ireland is known for it's writers . I have this feeling that, the place must be so inspiring, I really wanna go there. Someday. Psst, the Irish accent is SO HOT.
