Sunday 8 November Meeting
Even today I still get a smile at the memory of our meeting nearly two weeks ago... I immensely enjoyed it and wish that Failafoosa and S could have been there! :D the weather was amazing, and sitting on the mat in the garden between all the greenery (and the children's excited playing) discussing books books and more books really made me feel all giddy with excitement ! 
Ok so things that were discussed are the following:
-Website (Every 6 months one of the members would be responsible of the website)
- Genres chosen for the next round (Arabic, Biographies, Romance and Classics) its Bella and Mystical Glow's turn
- Bella's Suggested "BookWorms'" websites are the following :P I think we should get accounts at:
See you all soon in our next December meeting InshAllah!

Sis totally a 10/10 :D
I couldn't put down "Love in Headscarf" from the moment I read "Love. Amour, ishq,hubb,amor,pyar. All these words in my lexicon to describe something delicious and mundane, irresistible and sublime...."
Shelina's book is original, down to earth and in many parts her description about Islam is very beautifully written - especially her mention about Sufism which is something I love to read about - and I bet it took alot of courage on her part to write about her personal experience on finding "The One" and I admire her for that :D
But her words had an effect on me way after I closed the last page with a satisfied smile on my face.. She inspires me to make a difference and do something in my life ...
I would definitely recommend this book to MANY!
Check out her site ;)
And started Prince Among Slaves - this will prove to be another interesting read ^_^
