Ron and Hermione needs counselling to sustain a relationship - J.K. Rowling

Most of them would have heard about the interview with J.K. Rowling to Emma Watson (yes, the same Hermione!).

In that interview, she said that marrying Ron to Hermione is a mistake..actually admitted that although Ron and Hermione ended up together at the end, they are not a credible couple... (WHAT???)

"I think there are fans out there who know that too and who wonder whether Ron would have really been able to make her happy," Watson responds in excerpts from the interview printed in the Sunday Times.

Rowling said she could "hear the rage and fury it might cause some fans" of her work and that she hoped she would not be "breaking people's hearts" with her revelations.

Which she truly did! (I was really shocked to hear this statement at first)

At last, she said Ron and Hermione would have needed counselling to sustain their relationship.

Is it just me or this information breaks your heart too???

My Kindle Keyboard is not working.. :-( My very first e-reader....

Yesterday, suddenly my Kindle Keyboard's display was not working..I get only thin lines instead of words and screensavers.   You know for the past 24 hours, I have been so upset.  Actually, 'upset' doesn't even cover it.  I was always thinking that somehow this is my fault and I should have taken more care.  Not true (because I care for my Kindle like no one else..I won't even place it in the floor..I know this is too much..)!  But I felt like that.  This is my first e-reader and I was somehow so attached to my Kindle.  You should have seen me, when I received my first Kindle from Amazon.  I was so happy - like 'head over heels' happy.  I always have my Kindle wherever I go, even if I know I can't read in that event/place.

I know it looks bad to get attached to an e-reader so much, but that's how I am.  When I cried to told my husband that my Kindle display is not working, he said "Next time you buy, get two, so that you can always have one, even if the other stops working".  (Sweet, I know..but still..my first Kindle is no more. :-( )

Anyway, coming back to reality, I am going to get a new Kindle now - Kindle Paperwhite.  I think I am going to love this. :-)  I will update you guyz, as soon as I am delivered this cutie.  I have most of my e-books on Kindle cloud, so getting back my purchased and review copies should be no trouble (well, at least, I am hoping so).

I apologize to all the authors, publishers and other blog tour hosting companies, because I can't review any e-books for another couple of weeks.  But, those who sent hard-copies, thank you!  Because I am going to try to finish off those books during this time.

Happy Birthday, Francis Scott Fitzgerald!

Today is the birthday of a great author, F Scott Fitzgerald!  And we are going to celebrate his birthday by sharing some of his quotes with him.

Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald was an American writer of novels and short stories, whose works have been seen as evocative of the Jazz Age, a term he himself allegedly coined. He is regarded as one of the greatest twentieth century writers. Fitzgerald was of the self-styled "Lost Generation," Americans born in the 1890s who came of age during World War I. He finished four novels, left a fifth unfinished, and wrote dozens of short stories that treat themes of youth, despair, and age.
