In Japan, autumn is the season for...

1) sports (スポーツの秋）　

2) arts/culture（芸術の秋）　

3) food/appetite（食欲の秋）　

4) reading（読書の秋）

since i really want to work on my reading habit

i took the chance and started to read...

here is what i have been reading

- 'Interpreter of Maladies' Jhumpa Lahiri

This is composed by short stories. I love it! I wanted to read a little before deciding to buy or not...but then i just couldn't stop!! i need to go back to the bookstore..i have 3 more chapters left...haha! i am so cheap!! i know...

-'お菓子手帖' by 長野　まゆみ　('notebook of sweets' by Mayumi Nagano)

It's basically an autobiography of the author expressed through the history of sweets she have had. It's fun to read~ I love all the little details she included...the wrapping, the colour, the smell...etc.

-'Loulette' by Claire Clement (ルウとおじいちゃん）

I love reading children literature. I just started the 1st chapter and it's very sweet already.

I am reading it in japanese though...
