Little Launch of Two Writers

-
The moment I've been waiting for has arrived. I am finally meeting the author of 'Little Hut of Leaping Fishes' Chiew-Siah Tei. Her book, 'Little Hut of Leaping Fishes' was officially launched at the British Council, Kuala Lumpur yesterday. It was the first time that the British Council and book distributors Pansing had worked in partnership to organise this event. Regrettably, I wasn't able to make it. I was held up at another interview. Sigh...

Anyway, thanks to my dear friend, Kavita from Pansing, I am able to catch up with Tei and have a one-on-one interview with her at One World Hotel, Petaling Jaya, TODAY! And with this too, I'm finally launching www.hookedonbookz.blogspot, officially!

I really can't wait to meet up with her. And what's more interesting is, she and I both come from the same hometown - Negeri Sembilan! I hope we'll all have a good time. Kavita, thanks loads!

Here's one of the many pics taken at the launch:

Some of you may know who Lydia Teh is. She's a local author, who has written several books; one of which is Honk! If You're Malaysian. Recently, she has written another book titled Do You Wear Suspenders? and has even created a bookertisement for it. Check it out! It's funny! :) Must get my hands on this book! hehe If you're interested to get a copy, here's your chance! Just post her this youtube link on your blog, and you'd stand a chance to win yourself an autographed book by her! :D Oooo.....and did I mention, a RM100 book voucher too if you're lucky? *wink*

Dear bookaholics, If you were wondering why this bookaholic is no longer putting up her usual book reviews and interesting bookish finds, and only updates her blog with events, well, it's because I'm very tied up with something else right now. However, it'll end very soon...and my book reviews will be up again in July :) I'm looking forward to it as I REALLY REALLY MISS READING!!!! If you have found any good reads recently, please feel free to post your recommendations here or drop me an email :) Till then, keep reading!! (image from google images)
