This weekend is MPH Members’ Weekend. On the 9th and 10th October 2010, MPH members will enjoy a huge discounts and savings when they visit their favourite MPH store. The offers as follows:

This applies to all normal priced book items. It excludes items already on offers or promotions, value buys, agent controlled items, newspapers, and magazines. The offer is applicable at all MPH outlets except MPH KLIA.

A Bagful of Knowledge
Fill an MPH canvas bag with books tagged with the “MPH Bagful of Knowledge” sticker and get 70% off the total price. To qualify for the discount, you’ll have to also purchase the MPH canvas bag @ RM14.90. Offer only applicable at MPH 1-Utama, The Curve, Mid Valley, Gurney Plaza, Subang Parade, Sunway Pyramid, and Johor Bahru City Square. Good deal provided there are good books with the label. Only way to find out is to check in at the closest MPH bookstore.

Personally, this is a great time to load up on books. I started reading again in July and promised myself I wouldn’t stop. So far it’s mostly fiction. Can’t bear the drone of self help or biographies. In the three months, I’ve gone through seven books. Pretty decent I think. Latest author I’ve been reading is Karen Miller. Started reading her a couple months back and have so far gone through four of her books:

• The Innocent Mage (Kingmaker, Kingbreaker, Book 1)
• The Awakened Mage (Kingmaker, Kingbreaker)
• Empress (Godspeaker Trilogy)
• The Riven Kingdom (The Godspeaker Trilogy)

Three more to go:

• Hammer of God (Godspeaker Trilogy, Book 3)
• The Reluctant Mage (Fisherman’s Children)
• The Prodigal Mage (Fisherman’s Children)

So I’ll probably get those this weekend. That should keep me occupied for a month or so. Wonder what next to read. Any suggestions on specific authors or books?
