The Linnet Bird - Linda Holeman
'India, 1839: Linny Gow, a respectable young wife and mother, settles down to write her life story. To outside appearances Linny is the perfect colonial wife: beautiful, gracious, subservient. But appearances can be very deceptive.....
An unforgettble book, richly descriptive and mesmerising from the start, The Linnet Bird is the spellbinding tale of the journey of Linny Grow - child prostitute turned social climber turned colonial wife turned adventures. Frequently disturbing, often moving and always entralling, it is that rare thing: a story that will stay with you for ever.'

Alhamdulillah aku dah habis baca buku ni. Sepanjang trip ni sedar sedar aku dah habis baca lima buah buku. Average aku habiskan setiap buku selama 15 hari. Kira oklah kan. Sekarang aku dah mula baca buku yang baru. At least in the flight aku dapat katam buku tu walau aku doubt gile boleh selesai sebab tulisan dia mak datuk kecil beno. Aku memang enjoy baca buku fiction. Buku The Linnet Bird ni dah lama aku beli tapi baru berkesempatan aku nak baca. Cerita memang best tapi slow aje cam movie drama. Bla baca tu kena pulak imagine zaman 1800s. Cara mereka berpakaian, decoration, the old city and the ancient culture.

Untuk aku tunaikan hasrat aku nak jadi writter, hehehehe........(angan angan Mat Jenin ke ni?), balik nanti aku akan cari buku tentang creative writting. At least aku start from some where to fulfilled my wishes.
