Let the light pierce through the darkness Close all old accounts, turn a new leaf Re-learn that old lesson of friendship Kill nor be killed, settle for lessening Amidst us of this fossilized hatred
Transient Dreams
glimpses of life… silence and chaos; laughter and tears…
Perhaps that time has not come yet when our, Gods would listen to the beats in our hearts, peace and happiness spread their glow, perhaps we would have to force Mother Time?.
2008: 100 Book Challenge
- The goal of this challenge is to read 100 books in one year. You must have read the book all the way to the end for it to count.
- All books count — novels/novellas, anthologies/collections, etc. It’s up to you if you want to count repetitions but I opted not to.
- Keep your list organized month-by-month. You can view an example of what I mean here.
- Network with other challengers by exchanging links. This can keep you motivated, help you gain some traffic and even make new friends.
My fellow challengers: Sarah, Crinthia, happysarah, Denise, Jess

[…] 100 Book Challenge […]
OH YEAH I’M IN!! Haha, I love to read I just lack (some) motivation and especially, lack of good books! I’ll figure out how to slot my time in considering half the years gone already lol.
You read the Keys to the Kingdom series, THAT IS SO DAMN AWESOME =D I really like the concept of that… it’s just so interesting, and puts it into a perspective similar to religion (if you wikipedia it they found all these religious links lol), but different.
