I found this unique flower while exploring Sarangani Highlands at Brgy. Tambler, General Santos City. The white-colored flowers with their petals tinged with green look so attractive but what really caught my attention was that right in the middle of its cluster, a tiny star-shaped, yellow-colored flower stood out. I don't know the name of this flower but I find it really pretty and unique.


This is my 2nd entry for the meme, Leaf Through Books. The rules are here. I liked the book, When the Wind Blows by James Patterson. So, the next time I passed thru the same book thrift shop, I decided to check other James Patterson books and I found, Roses Are Red and The Lake House. I decided to read the Roses are Red first. Here's the review...

Alex Cross and his beautiful, hard-driven FBI agent, Betsey Cavalliere can’t seem to get ahead from the sadistic criminal who calls himself The Mastermind. Still trying to recover the pieces of his personal life from the previous case, Cross get into a case where mind games lead to violence and the tiniest mistake will be punished with death. This book is a certified page turner.
Since I liked Roses Are Red, I am now looking for the next book, Violets Are Blue. I checked the reviews and here's what I found...

Alex Cross has never believed in vampires. But when two joggers are found slain in a manner that suggests a macabre ritual, he has to reconsider. Someone believes in vampires enough to have committed a series of bizarre murders that appear to be the work of one. Local police are horrified, and even the FBI is baffled.

I still have to read this book, The Lake House. Perhaps before this month ends..
