the queen of spades

i got this book as my early christmas gift from a dear friend. she told me to read it while she was gone...

and so i did...

It's a tale of passion, love, and a search for inner peace in the chaos of life.

It will take you to a journey of pain, hope, disenchantment, and even love... lost love.

The story is about two different people dreaming of two different destinies. It is non-existing and yet it is somewhere there buried deep in the waters of Venice where most part of the story is set.

After reading the book I question each souls as to what lengths will you go for love? A true test of courage is how much you can love.

There were times when reading this book when I just stopped; the words are filled with poetry -- beautiful, haunting, reaveling and thruthful --

"There's no sense in loving someone you can only wake up by chance"

"Somewhere between fear and sex, passion is"
