Armchair BEA (Day 5):Child to Young Adult

I'll tell you some of the books that's part and shaped my childhood.Well growing up I love reading and watching fairy tales.Disney is at all time high! I've re-read these books so many times.

This one is (not by disney) published by Tormont Publications Inc. it's full of wonderful one of a kind illustrations and graphic designs by Zapp as seen over here.

The Harry Potter Series by J.K Rowling

Normal boy-Wizard-Adventures,Coming of age story-one of the best finales!

This is like some sorta tradition between my aunt and I.Every year she'll give me a book whenever she comes home from abroad.But for book 3 & 4 that cycle sorta stopped so my Godma (MissGennD) one of the best person in the universe allowed me to read her copies.Then it resumed though I got some different editions along the way.It was EPIC! I'm really glad I got into Harry Potter I think the movies helped me a lot to get into them.One of my all time favorite series!

The Twits,Charlie & the chocolate factory,The Witches & Matilda by Roald Dahl

The Twits was lent to me by one of my bffs we laughed so hard oh so many good times XD The other ones I borrowed on my school library.Matilda, I can watch this movie over and over I watched it so many times that whenever I visit my Grandmas place in the province my cousin definitely knows what movie I'd love to watch it was definitely one of the most requested along side with Jack.For The Witches and Charlie I have no idea it was based on the book when the movie was released way back then but as read the story OMG! the book it was really AWESOME!

Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman

Normal guy-meets extraordinary girl-one of a kind adventure into parallel universe-got sucked into the world. (one of my all time favorite book!)

My Cousin/Uncle lent me a copy from his officemate I forgot why but perhaps something about telling  him the story afterwards and if I like it etc I'm not really sure but I don't know why for some reason I agreed and just simply say OK haha!no compensation,just me reading an epic story & I think it was summer so yeah this is one of the fastest book I've ever read in my life! from that moment on I love Neil Gaiman though I have no idea who he is that time or whatever.The story and adventures of Richard and Door never left me til this very day.And the BBC radio broadcast was absolutely amazing!

Then I eventually met him and thanked him for his awesomeness! XD

Oh yeah! BEST DAY EVER! more of that over here and most of their links could be found over here.

Angels and Demons, Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown

Kinda like Sherlock, Genius extraordinary guy-meets girl-murder cases-adventures-lots of mystery games and secret religious organizations.

This was one of the most controversial books ever! even way back in the day it was published.Almost everyone was fussing about it! most of them that I know don't even know what it's about and I'm so happy I got a chance to enlighten them.It's funny how this book was passed around the family.Oh such hype! and his latest novel Inferno sent a lot of tail blaze over at the far east asia or perhaps all over the world?

Along with my teenage years well I guess I read a lot of manga.The only page I managed to put together for now is stuff about Shoujo Manga.But like I said on my previous post I read all sorts of books so for manga there's Shonen(mostly boy lead characters,as their main target are boys),I like the category gender bender too (girl pretends to be a boy or vice versa) and lots more!

Now, here are some of the books I wish I read when I was a kid.The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S Lewis. it's so magical,lots of adventures and most of my favorite author said this is one of the books that inspired them.

Children-adventures-coming of age-fun times that never seems to end XD

His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman

I wanna get into this because of the movie.I'm not sure if they're in the works for part II.

but the girl-shape shifting pets-talking animals-adventures-W:OW

The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein

Very heart warming tale it never fails to move me in so many levels T_T

Complete collection of Roald Dahl's books. 

I can't believe he wrote so many books so I'm still working on this pile haha!

What about you?what's your favorite(s)?

Feel free to recommend me anything or whatever share away!^_^

Aimchair BEA (Day 2): Blogger Development & Genre Fiction

So today's topic is about becoming a Better Blogger & Genre: Fiction.

I started off from having no idea whatsoever about blogging to actually typing in and adding some of my own ideas and creating contents. So how do I exactly stimulate such things? well it takes time,calm down,be patient,focus,think and it's ok if ever you don't have any idea(s) at the moment sooner or later such grand idea will hit as you dwell on it sometimes the things I didn't even thought I could do suddenly I can do it as I'm always like hey why not? JUST DO IT!(more on the stay positive,look at the bright side of things and being enthusiastic!).As time went by I learned a lot of things many thanks to books,the interwebs (small-big contributions) through lots of people who shared their knowledge,learning by means of following-discovering various websites and other sort of platforms out there [as I joined quite a lot of them that may (most of the time) inspires me]like Goodreads,Twitter,Tumblr,Youtube, blogaholic & bloglovin etc.The Power of Observation, yes! overtime eventually I noticed gradual changes on different people's blogs,POVs and contents they are posting like what makes them/it unique?how it attracts people,cover topics,hosting etc. and I usually tend to brainstorm,over analyze, organize,weigh pros and cons,try out old/new stuff,figure out stuff which works best for me is it convenient? or not.Also doing things that makes me happy.

Sometimes I like to shake things out a bit or be on hiatus once in a while chill and enjoy!There's not a lot of things happening where I'm at right now but I always try to partake to as many live events possible if there's any whether in real life or simply in a form of a google plus hangout or whatever.

I'm still learning a lot of things every single day and tried to remind myself some of the important stuff in which I might actually forget once in awhile (notes and drafts are always handy).As much as I'd like to monetize my account(s) I'd rather not for it usually suck the fun out of it (at least for me).I tried to collaborate with other folks like doing Author Interviews,giveaways,challenges, buddy reads,blog hops,doing things for the first time and stuff like that.It was really nice!I think my online personality somewhat improved as I tackle and touch various topics in order to convey my opinion,suggestion and different emotions.

Now about Genre: fiction I read all sorts of books though I usually tend to gravitate towards mystery,fantasy,manga and graphic novels but I'm pretty much open into trying something new.One thing I learned a lot so far and discovered more about is YA and different series from booktubers (people who make book related videos on youtube,checkout the link scroll down look at the subscriptions page,discover,watch and don't forget to subscribe!) they definitely encouraged me to read more,be more social,connect,meet people,be out there and be interactive though of course from time to time my book/choice(s) varies depends on my mood haha but it's all good!

So many wonderful things yet to discover!
