FLICKS FEAST
review Time passes by yet classic literature remains. These books, regardless of the generation, are considered gems from which you will gain profound reading experiences, thus making them so worth rereading. If you’ve never read any such masterpiece and don’t know how to get started, here are some very useful recommendations. On classroom reading lists and websites like “Books to read before you die” are essential reads. A perfect example is George Orwell’s 1984, a 1949 vision of the “negative utopia” the world was becoming with admonitions, that even now, grow in power. William Golding’s Lord of the Flies paints a brutal portrait of human nature through the tale of marooned boys and their world turned terribly primitive. In J.D. Salinger’s powerful The Catcher in the Rye, protagonist Holden Caulfield edgily depicts the eternal teenage experience of alienation. Harper Lee’s anti-racist story To Kill a Mockingbird, told through Scout and Jem Finch’s young eyes, is of one man challenging a prejudiced town for justice. The book’s sequel Go Set a Watchman revisits Scout two decades later during a painful yet necessary civil rights and political transition for the South. 6
There are also the timeless literary treasures whose perfect prose and various cover designs make them not just worth reading but also collecting. One exemplary piece is Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice, a happyever-after love story favorite especially among the female audience. And who could forget Lewis Carroll’s whimsical Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland? The book has been relaunched in a myriad of formats and designs and its 150th anniversary edition was crafted by Vivienne Westwood! These are just a few examples of the world’s all-time favorites. On your next trip to Asia Books, go ahead and treat yourself or others with whom you’d like to share these literary classics to a title or two!

GREAT EXPECTATIONS By CHARLES DICKENS
review
You could always begin with classic reads that have inspired enthralling films. There is F. Scott Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby which strips away the layers of the glamorous 1920s high society world exposing its core coldness and cruelty. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s amazing Sherlock Holmes: The Novels is a superb collection of the genius investigator Holmes and his brilliant partner Dr. Watson’s captivating adventures. Recently in theatres was the animated feature inspired by Antoine de Saint-Exupery’s The Little Prince, who enchants readers through imagination making them laugh, cry and contemplate the world.

9781405910712 ORPHAN X By GREGG HURWITZ Trade Paperback
Do you need my help? It was always the first question he asked. They called him when they had nowhere else to turn. As a boy he was chosen, then taken from the orphanage he called home. Raised and trained as part of a top secret programme he was sent to the worst places in the world to do the things his government denied any knowledge of. Then he broke with the programme, using everything he'd learned to disappear. He wanted to help the desperate and deserving. But now someone's on his tail. Someone who has issues with his past. Someone who knows he was once known simply as Orphan X.

It's just another day of high school for Zack Lightman. He's daydreaming through another boring math class, with just one more month to go until graduation and freedom-if he can make it that long without getting suspended again. Then he glances out his classroom window and spots the flying saucer. At first, Zack thinks he's going crazy. A minute later, he's sure of it. Because the UFO he's staring at is straight out of the video game he plays every night, a hugely popular online flight simulator called Armada-in which gamers just happen to be protecting the earth from alien invaders. But what Zack's seeing is all too real. And his skills-as well as those of millions of gamers across the world-are going to be needed to save the earth from what's about to befall it. Yet even as he and his new comrades scramble to prepare for the alien onslaught, Zack can't help thinking of all the science-fiction books, TV shows, and movies he grew up reading and watching, and wonder: Doesn't something about this scenario seem a little too... familiar?

9781501140648 HOW TO BE SINGLE (FILM TIE-IN) By LIZ TUCCILLO Paperback
Shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize and for the National Book Award 2015 A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara is an immensely powerful and heartbreaking novel of brotherly love and the limits of human endurance. When four graduates from a small Massachusetts college move to New York to make their way, they're broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition. There is kind, handsome Willem, an aspiring actor; JB, a quick-witted, sometimes cruel Brooklyn-born painter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect at a prominent firm; and withdrawn, brilliant, enigmatic Jude, who serves as their centre of gravity. Over the decades, their relationships deepen and darken, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realize, is Jude himself, by midlife a terrifyingly talented litigator yet an increasingly broken man, his mind and body scarred by an unspeakable childhood, and haunted by what he fears is a degree of trauma that he'll not only be unable to overcome - but that will define his life forever.

Instead, Harvard-educated psychiatrist of 30 years Michael Bennett and his comedian daughter, Sarah, show you how to: Stop overthinking, make smarter decisions so you can manage whatever life throws at you, stick to your values when good luck is nowhere to be found, come away from bad situations with your self-respect and sanity intact They may not promise lifelong happiness, but they do guarantee strength, pride, and a sense of humour.
9781447276517 HOW TO HAVE A GOOD DAY By CAROLINE WEBB Trade Paperback
All around the world, people could be having better days. Constraints at work can make us feel disengaged and dissatisfied, and as we spend more time in the office than we do with our families that feeling can follow us home. But here's the wonderful news: powerful advances in cognitive science have shown us how we have far more control over the quality of our day-to-day lives than we realize. How To Have A Good Day translates behavioural economics, neuroscience and psychology into practical advice to help you make every day - at work and at home - a good day. With fascinating case studies and easy-to-implement daily strategies for effectiveness, happiness and productivity, Caroline Webb shows how we can all have more control and more ‘well-planned luck’ - in our work, in our family life and in our communities.

Jenni knows it!
My dear readers,
Since reading is a favorite relaxing activity for so many, any avid bookworm is going to want to make every chance to dive into the pages of a currently favorite book as fulfilling and uninterrupted as possible. And we’re all still on a Star Wars high, aren’t we? I mean I don’t think there is anyone who isn’t aware of the newest instalment in the mega space film franchise! Having said that, I’m so excited to share with you our latest selection of trendy, new items to give your and others’ leisure time the oomph it needs make it simply unforgettable!
Star Wars 3D Metalic Puzzle The entire world was finally rewarded for its excited patience with the release of the highly acclaimed “The Force Awakens.” You can easily continue the spellbinding fun with a Star Wars do-it-yourself (DIY) metal model. Blacksmith 3D metal Star Wars series comes in 5 different models. Each laser-etched model has an ingenious slot and tab design. So glue is unnecessary. All you have to do is pop out the pieces and then bend, fold and assemble them together using the illustrated instruction guide. Grab one now before they are all gone!

The Anywhere Light Jenni knows it!
Let’s begin with the agile Anywhere Light whose bendy arms and legs make it great for grabbing or hooking where other lights can’t plus its head can rotate 360 degrees. You no longer have to worry about not having enough light as you relax with a book no matter where you are. How cool is that! But wait, there’s more! The Anywhere Light also comes in 4 different funky shades. If you have trouble making up your mind, just get an extra one! That’s what I’d do!
Page Corners Another item that will definitely come in handy and help you keep your book in great condition is the next product called Page Corners. This page-friendly corner bookmark stops you from having to fold down the corners of your precious book to remember where you read up to. You’ll be so much happier each time you pick up your book as you won’t have to see creases from folding or have to keep pushing formerly folded pages back into shape. And, you know, if books could speak they’d be saying “Thank you!” for getting this nifty little product.
Gift Wrap for Books You’ll never go wrong with giving a book as a present as books are the perfect gift for any and all occasions. You’ll also want your gift to look extra special. What would better than adorning your chosen book gift with perfectly sized literary wrapping paper. This gift wrapping paper comes in one 490x400mm sheet per pack and fits the most common paperback and hardback sizes. Just imagine how much more excited the person receiving the gift will be when they receive the gift!
Do check out these nice, little items on your next trip to Asia Books to make reading and relaxing even better! 19
