Second Place is Just Right

If somebody had to bump Diary of An Expat in Singapore from first place, I am glad it was Malala, the brave girl who survived being shot in the head on a school bus for standing up to the Talibans. No surprise really, what do I stand up for? Durian, laksa, and Singlish.  Culturally important, but not the same thing. Anyway, I just finished her book and strongly recommend it.
On the other hand, a bio about the Kardashians might have hurt.
