Lierliar's Stories & Tales: Preface


Lierliar lubs reading.

Reading is one of my life's greatest pleasures. While reading, I travel literally. Stories and tales shaped my imagination and some of my favourites reads have been very influential on my perspective. I have been planning for THIS, in my mind, for a very long time. Hey! My picture says it all. I literally, planned.

It's a ritual habit of mine to keep one small blue notebook just for my titles listing reference's sake on all the books I had read, book titles for my borrow list or to add on to my own library collection. I put a little tick beside the title on my listing after I finished reading the book and just for fun, graded the literature according to my own barometer. The listing info is a real plus for me when I need to check or remember an author or any obscure titles. *Nerd...*

What I am looking forward to with this blog, will be a collective reviews on all my readings and I can't wait to begin my first entry. Bear in mind I will not wish to stick to one stipulated format akin to Amazon.com. I will just like to go along with my flow of thoughts. For a start, I will chronicle all the readings I enjoyed immensely from when I first learned how to appreciate a good story plot. That will be when I was six years old. So, I am looking forward to one long but sweet and nostalgic literal memory trip for my own sake and hopefully, for you too!

I will then go on with my sentiment with my latest book on hand, especially if the book is one which makes me give up my sleeping hours for. Pardon and do forgive me, for I am no wordsmith. I will try my best to express my opinions with simple words. Hope you will enjoy my very amateurish, erm, critical reviews on all kinds of literary works that have etched an impression on me, good or bad.

For once, I am keen and eager to hear your opinions too! Whether you feel the same way as I do really does not matter. I always appreciate good opinions or new insights to the story I may have missed. No personal attacks please. I am not a critic, just a reader.

Do feel free to introduce good books to me; I am always looking out for one anyway.

Nothing beats flipping a good book with expectations.
