Last May, I posted in Facebook and Multiply a list of books I want to have before my 25th birthday on November. Four months later, here are the updates on my wishlist:

1. Forever Odd by Dean Koontz – acquired c/o Geltotz
2. Life Expectancy by Dean Koontz – acquired
3. A Series of Unfortunate Events (Books 7 – 13) by Lemony Snicket (I decided to make the 7 books part of one entry because otherwise it will take up too many slots which I can use for other titles instead.)
a. The End (Book 13) – acquired
4. The Missing Piece Meets the Big O by Shel Silverstein (read this already, but I still want a copy ^_^)
5. The Missing Piece by Shel Silverstein (read this already, but I still want a copy ^_^)

8. Labyrinths by Jorge Luis Borges (owns an e-book but still wants the paperback edition)
9. A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’Engle – acquired
10. The Time Traveler’s Wife by Audrey Niffenegger (is having second thoughts about this book (this usually happens when the book is turned into a hollywood movie)
11. Chronicle of a Death Foretold by Gabriel Garcia Marquez (read this already, but I still want a copy ^_^)
