I realised that being NS is not without its perks. I’ve never read more books than during my time in army. There’s just so much down time in between events that it’s killer not to have a book in hand. So there’s benefit of being in the army after all. Here’s some of the books I’ve been reading the past two weeks.

In a nutshell:
Harry Silver has it all: a beautiful wife, a wonderful son, a great job in the media - but in one night he throws it all away. Then Harry must start to learn what life and love are really all about.

Opinion:
The book is rather popular though I hadn’t the chance to read it until Detty bought it. No fancy imagery. No flamboyant plot twists. Just a simple study of inter-human relationships.

I like the interaction between Harry and his dad. Actually I love anything that can bring out the essence of a father and son relationship. It’s one of the most understated bonds in life because so few words are exchanged.

There’re so many points in the book that I was struggling to keep the tears in. It takes a man to describe the male psyche.
