The Perfect Stranger by Anne Gracie
This is historical romance. I read a hisotrical romance book for the first time. I enjoyed reading it very much. It is readable. It has about 340 pages. Of cource, there were many words I didn't know in it, though I had no problem of reading it.
The following is the stoly line. Faith, who ran from her persuers, came across a dog and a man whose name was Blacklock. He protected her from her persuers. She told him and his servants why she ran from them. After Blacklock listened to her story, he offered her to marry him. At first, she thought it was a kind of joke. But he meant it. And she accepted it. She dreamed her marriage was full of love, kind and intimacy. But Mr. Blacklock ordered her to leave for England where he and she lived. At the time, they were traveling. He had a critical reason of insisting her to leave. This reason was a great secret, so he hid the reason. She asked him to be with him in some days and they traveled with together.

The Perfect Stranger
I began reading a book titled "The Perfect Stranger" by Anne Gracie. I saw it was in articles of Raquel's blog. She is known as a queen of Romance in SSS, perhaps. I have seen her blog since April. Because I was interested in books about Romance. In reading her blog, I decided to read "The Perfect Stranger" and "Mr. Impossible", so I bought them at amazon. I wondered if I read it smoothly or in forgetting passing time. Until now, I read it smoothly. I finished reading 100 pages for two days. But I can read books like Sidney Sheldon's for two days. In other words, I read this Romance book slower than simple mistery or adventure. However, reading fast is not quite good.

I continued to lose again
In the morning, my sister seemed to make her room clean, for I heard a noise of a cleaner and I also heard a music sound. After she finished cleaning, she opend the door of my room and asked me to turn on a computer. Because the main computer of my house is in my room. Unless it wake up, a computer in another room can not connect to the Internet. I told her that I was sleeping. She said she was going to leave within an hour and she had to search something. I got up because I was a thoughtful brother. Later, it was found that she left after three hours. I thought she told a lie so that she could use a computer. Before I came home where I live now, there were no people who told a lie for one's own sake, although there were people who told a lie for other's sake. Anyway, I woke up earlier than standard days. So I was sleepy in the evening. I couldn't concertrate on anything. But I played Go in WING. I don't know why. And I continued to lose a game of Go. I usually lose it if I am sleepy. Now I determined not to play Go if I am sleepy or in weekdays. Today is not weekday. But I was sleepy. At the moment, I am not sleepy. I wanted to go to bed without playing Go. These days there are many times I am regretful.

At last, I won
I have continued to lost Go games. I play Go in WING with rank 5k and login name hirosegawa. Yesterday, I won a game at last. I have not thought I won a game of Go in a long time. But I won a game and I felt I would win anytime.
I reviewed the game I won.
Here is the first time I stopped to think.
I was white though I didn't mention it. I felt this image was too big. How do you think? Coming back the Go game, I didn't much experienced a move like 15. I thought s-13 but I thought it was considered by opponent. So I played r-15. Then it was moved in the following.
I thought I scored a high point, didn't I? Then my stones was captured.
Maybe 30 was not good. Instead of it, is e-5 good? When 53 was played, I noticed my stones was captured. I was so stupid.
After 53, to take advantage of the captured stones, I went down the right stone 5.
And then, I made weak stones. But I managed to link the stones above.
I thought this situation was good for me. After then, I attacked black stones which got in my teritory and I obtained a white wall. But black invaded in my area. I thought this black 135 could be captured.
I successed.
And I took back the stones below by the move 166. I thought it was over at the moment. The opponent resigned sixty moves later.

VOA news about math
I have listened to VOA special English since last year. I believe listening much is important to learn English. I could hardly listen to English before last year. However I continued listening to English, although I didn't listen every day. At last, I walked in the day I could listen to English last year. I think it is not only due to continuing to listen but also due to reading many novels. Until then, I have read about 50 books. I can understand many of news of VOA special English. Today I listend to Experts Will Study How to Improve Math Teaching in U.S.. I heard the degree of people's comprehension for math is decreasing year and year. To improve the situation, the way of teaching of math is discussioned. There are two major and important methods. One is memorizing knowledge and answers and the other is solving problems creatively. To combine this two methods is much better than depending on one method. In most days, I listen to English within an hour.

I feel sad
I usually write without minding grammar and usage. So I probably continue some mistakes. Consequently, I may make its mistaken knowledge stone and continue same mistakes ever. I don't want to be in this way. Hence, I let a native speaker edit my article. I am going to submit my article once a week.
Here is my original article.
One of my hobby is Go. Some years ago, I learned how to play Go. Accidentally, there was a 6 dan player in a mathematical institute which I belonged to. We played Go once a week. During my graduate-students period, I became a 3 dan player. Finally, when we played Go, I was black and added two stones on the board.
For a long time, I haven't seen a game of professional Go players. Today, I saw a game of Lee Changho. He is one of my favorite player. Also, I like Lee Sedol.
