Reading was never really a hobby for renaye. She just read for the sake of reading since her surrounding is full of books. She had a huge inventory until she and her older sister were able to rent out books to their classmates. In return, the money collected was reinvested in buying more books. Not only that, her family had donated over 100 books to the Salvation Army. So buying and reading books was something very common to her.

But unfortunately none of the books in her inventory were good enough to be called "favourite". R.L. Stine, Christopher Pike, Russell Lee, etc books but renaye soon got bored with these books because they were good during that time. In fact, she has read almost every book of R. L. Stine.

She thought it is time to explore other genres. But what genre? Well it was truly a trial and error. She has read all kinds of books from classic to modern to romance to horror. From this, she managed to read some good books such as The Little Princess by Frances Hodgson Burnett and some real incomprehensible books like Dracula by Stom Broker.

But at last she found a book called Black Dawn by Lisa Jane Smith. It is the book she has been looking for! It is the one! How did she catch it? She got it by being attracted by its cover!!! Woohoo. And you know what? That book is now worth USD 40 and above. And how much did renaye buy? Impressible RM 13.90 (RM 3.50 = USD 1).

What originally a trial and error journey became an odyssey in getting good collectible books. It would be great if renaye could get hold of rare books. But that would be very much later.

So now Renaye presents some books from her library. Yes they are on SALE!!!
