　　A couple of years ago when I started to embrace audio books – this series was one of my first audio experiences. I know this is a Patterson book and I know some people struggle with his books and in some cases I agree, Patterson does have some gory graphic books out there. This series is not one of them. I think it is the touch of author Michael Ledwidge that gives this series its likability for me.
This series is centered around a detective, Michael Bennett who had adopted with his wife, 10 children. As the series opens, Michael loses his wife to cancer and while adjusting to a life without her, maintaining a huge household, and maintaining a high-capacity job, I kind of fell in love with this family.
In this fourth in the series, I enjoyed the start of a possible relationship between Michael and Mary Katheryn and even the annoying presence of the attractive Emily…. tossed in for good measure. The story line of the kids is always interesting and the crimes are usually good and not too graphic.

FT Island Tired!!!

　　Have you seen some of the pre-released photos of FT Island photoshoot for Marie Claire September 2009 issue? I'm not sure if each of you knows about this. Straight to the main point, based from my reading, the photoshoot ended with a great success. As the boys managed to appear 'manly' and look cool in the outfit.
What most of primadonnas doesn't know (maybe...), the photoshoot was made at 3am! So, the boys were really tired at that time (definitely!).
This wasn't the first kind-of-incidents happened. There were a lot of it (i guess) such as during the Gayo Daejun's festival at the very end of 2008, because of the busy schedule Hong Ki fell sick and was rushed to a hospital to get medical treatment. Beside that, the youngest member Choi Min Hwan fainted on the 23rd March during shooting his drama.
Guys, we've seen that our FT Island is willing to do anything, showing how they're really serious in their career. So, we as their primadonnas must support them no matter what happen. Because that is our major obligation...FT ISLAND OWEZ!!!
