About Me

I'm a geek idiot, with a soft-spot for gumshoes of the gritty variety and writers who can eke a laugh out of me. I also have a preference for learning new things occasionally.

Right now, a lot of stuff i read is still related to Economics, since I'll be starting the second year of my Masters in Applied Econs soon. but while there's space and time, there'll be a lot of fiction passing through my brain! =D

added a 2nd woman to my favourites list - Ms. Hanff =)
and for my next change... I'm returning to what I STILL love about Economics: the Big Picture, Globalisation and Economic Geography (aka D. Romer, T Freidman and P. Krugman respectively)

you may not have missed me... but I sure missed reading fiction and everthing else that may have caught my magpie attention. so here I am at year end, exams cleared for the year and already a novel under my belt and (hopefully) more to come. Merry Christmas, all!

I was thinking to introduce, collapsible shelf to group books by authors in your bookshelves. :)

hi there.. thanks for adding me. You are welcome to any adventure you might find in my reading. I find it pretty bland (mostly non fiction) compared to some other people on this site! :)
