Peace and Salutations,
These days I'm reading Ship Breaker.
One of it's pages is being chewed upon by this strange creature.
This adorable page corner bookmark is the creative product of the blog
I Could Make That. I found it using Stumble Upon a few months back and decided
to finally try it out last night.

| The last book I finished |
This one was supposed to be for my brother but he took a fancy to other monster one I made. So I kept it for myself.
Here's some pictures of two of my older bookmarks.
I used one of the postcards my father brought for me from Uzbekistan.
And personalised it a bit.
It reads:
Willows whiten, aspens quiver
Little breezes dusk and shiver
Through the wave that runs forever
(from The Lady of Shalott by Tennyson)
Does the road wind uphill all the way?
Yes, to the very end.
(from Uphill by Christina Georgina Rossetti)
I love to feel the ocean blowing in my face.
Wave as the old boats depart.
(from Midday by Yusuf Islam)
I do not want people to be very agreeable as it
saves me the trouble of liking them a great deal.
- Jane Austen
Release the hanging emblem
Across the evening sky
Bathed in the seaward dance
Of your graven romance.
(Necromancer Romance by Ayra Luccan)
Dear distant kingdoms, foreign winds and water,
hopes and dreams and innocent sunshine,
Yet could my heart be passed back to me by my passing from your courtyard,
still it would not want an exile's camp.
Yours truly.
But avoid the city after dark -Midday by Yusuf Islam
Oh, I kept the first for another day.
Yet knowing how way leads on to way.
I doubted if I should ever come back.
-The Road Not Take, Robert Frost
The future is uncertain, like a feather in the wind
-Mine
The majesty of nature imposes silence over all
-to complement its stillness
-Mine
The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.
-Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening,
Robert Frost

The "strange creature" is very cute! I think I would like to have one chew on one of my books too! :)
This is so cool, you're a fellow bookaholic! :) I already like you coz I see Harry Potter on your shelf! :P What genre do you read most?
If only you were on Goodreads. I would love to browse through your shelves! I used to be on Shelfari several years back, but gave it up when a pal recommended GR.
Anyways, looking forward to seeing more of you here Hnia!
p.s. May Allah azza wa jall grant you good results in your SAT! :)
Yes! I looove reading. It has been my passion ever since I was a toddler. =)
I read mostly fantasy, young adult and historical fiction although some classical writers really appeal to me too. The best example being Jane Austen. (Hard not to like the woman who thought of Mr.Darcy =P)
I AM on Good Reads too, as a matter of fact. But I use Shelfari more. I find it more manageable. Here's my Good Reads profile : http://www.goodreads.com/user/show/5895923-hnia
And JizakAllah for that. My SAT result is only 4 days away. Yikes.
Very creative indeed and Earth friendly too. I noticed you're a fan of Harry Potter, me and my kids too. :)
Yesh! Harry Potter is universal, it seems.
This is the first time I've seen you on my blog. A very warm Welcome and thank you! Please keep posting, I really appreciate it. =)
