2013 was NOT my best year in reading as I read less than ever but at the same time 2013 was the best year of my reading life.
I only read 15 books, 2 Manga and 4 short stories last year š¦
It was such a let down…I plan to change that even though the prospect does not look good. At least I have finished 1 book and almost finish another one.
Here are all the book I read last year:
Stephen King’s :

Some Edgar Allan Poe’s shorts
I didn’t review these shorts because I didn’t have time at that time. I love The Tell-Tale Heart the most. I can fully understand why Audrey @ Aliceaudrey.com said that my short called Conscience reminds her of The Tell-Tale Heart.
Manga
I didn’t have time to do my annual One Piece reread…but I will definitely do it this year š
Unfinished Books:
> It’s an audio book read by Benedict Cumberbatch, even the sexy voice of Benny couldn’t make me finish this imaginative memoir. Sorry, I just don’t buy anything he has written…too farfetched.
> I really like the first book, the second is just too boring.
> So sorry, I just don’t think Charles Dickens is for me. This is the third book by him that I couldn’t read pass 10 pages.

Now, why did I say that 2013 was the best year of my reading life ?
It’s because I have small parts in 4 books which are published on line š
Mischief is for life.
Mischief has no boundaries.
Mischief knows no border either.
Mischief also crosses species.
True, most of my examples are from us Dogs, however, Iāve also got some examples from Mischievous Cats and even a Mischievous Turtle!
Quoted from Mischief Master class
Yup!! My turtle, my dear Kroten is in this book š
Apart from that, I also shared some of my flash fictions in 5 Flash in the Pan books published by
I even have my own author page š > here
You can read more about it by clicking on the book covers š (I will review the 2nd and 3rd soon)
You can also purchase the book by clicking on the book covers š
Apart from that…I met (through the net) the nicest writer EVER!! Mr Daniel Clay from UK. He kindly sent me his book all the way from the other side of the world. Broken is a great book, I enjoyed the emotional ride while reading it. (my review)
But that’s not the only thing. He also let me do a Q&A about the movie based on his book: Here.
Dear Daniel, thank you for making 2013 as an unforgettable year ((hug))
