Have never curl up in my bed or sat lazily at my table reading a book for so long... Last nite I read till 2 plus and let weariness take over me b4 I was willing to go to bed... Finished a book called 'The Second Chance'. Well, I picked it up cos I was short of a book... I hate to come out of the library without 4 bks unless I have to. Given on the limited collection at JW Library... Its hard to find newer books. Recently also been reading Nora Roberts... Writing under the name of J.D. Robb for a serious of adult crime novels in 2059.

Quite fun... In that era, alot of things were automated. Computers are 'cleverer', being able to perform commands upon voice command. Can perform multiple database functions... Doing those data mining stuff, process info to help indentify suspects etc. They also have robots... household ones like a housekeeper. I forgot wad did they name it... Haven read it in a while, it was b4 sch start that I found an interest in this series... Although Roberts got other nice crime novels too... and she also writes fantasy and romance... which many were bestsellers but I havent pick up...

Oh... Adult crime novel meaning... More violent, more brutal... and of cos like all books originating from the West, there are the steamy scenes. But I like the setting of the book, haha... interesting to 'take a peek into the future'...
