the obligatory book nerd

So, i mentioned in the previous post that I hate book series but feel like i have the obligation to read ALL of the series.

one example;
Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard.

 my first copy

When I started with the first book, Pretty Little Liars, I didn't know that it was actually a series book until I went to the bookstore again and found that there are 2 more books related to the first one. Aku beli those two books and after that, I was hooked.

 the rest of the PLL books that I owned

I finished book 12, Burned sometime last year (I think) and found out that book 13, Crushed was already out and book 16, Vicious is coming out soon (Dec 12th 2014).

there was long pause in reading between 'arcs' for me (Sara Shepard made the book in arcs; arc 1 [book 1-4], arc 2 [book 5-8], arc 3 [book 9-12] and arc 4 [book 13-16] ) and currently I am up till arc 3. 

 arc 1 [book 1-4]

 arc 2 [book 5-8]

 arc 3 [book 9-12] 

and 

 arc 4 [book 13-16].

I haven't seen any of the three-already-out arc 4 books being sold here in Brunei. 

my pauses between arc 1 and 2 was because I have to fly to KL (not really) to find the books for arc 2. then the pauses between acr 2 with arc 3 was because I contemplated whether or not to continue reading this series which of course I ended up reading them. Now, I'm in agony of wanting to read the fourth arc. four books total. already in my list of books to buy in Singapore. ada ku cari di KL last September but didn't find them plus the sells person in that book store sucks (not even trying to be polite coz they didn't too).

So, now, I hope they have it at Kinokuniya bookstore in Singapore. I remembered last two years I went there, the sells person was VERY helpful. Expecting the same service from them next year.
