The Undomestic Goddess – Sophie Kinsella

30 Apr

The Undomestic Goddess The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella

My review

rating: 3 of 5 stars
Ga sberapa suka endingnya..muter2 ga jelas..kurang memuaskan. Meskipun memang pembaca pasti berharap Samantha tetap meninggalkan karirnya sbagai Lawyer. Tapi overall ceritanya asik-asik aja. Seperti cerita2 Sophie Kinsella yang lain. Menghibur, bikin gemes, kocak & seru. :)

Alia, Luka Serambi Mekah Alia, Luka Serambi Mekah by Ratna Sarumpaet

My review

rating: 5 of 5 stars
Can’t stop reading ’til the end. Can’t stop tear dripping & choking along the reading process. Ratna Sarumpaet never fails to build a provoking story. Even though this is a fiction theater-manuscript, I’m sure there are lots of real facts Read the rest of this entry »

Seribu Kunang-kunang di Manhattan
Seribu Kunang-kunang di Manhattan by Umar Kayam


My review

rating: 5 of 5 stars
Ini adalah sebuah kumpulan cerpen karya guru besar Umar Kayam. Buku ini berhasil membuatku sadar akan realitas dunia yang penuh dengan kepalsuan dan kekejaman demi ego segelintir manusia. My favorite chapter is Musim Gugur di Connecticut. It really made me cry in the end. Even more crying when the story’s brought up to story-telling performance by Landung Simatupang. Mixing of a great writter (Umar Kayam) and an amazing story teller (Landung Simatupang)!

My review

rating: 5 of 5 stars
Kisah nyata yang sulit dipercaya, meski baca sambil nangis atau mengernyitkan dahi…but it’s real and she’s not a mother!

Nice networking site for the ones who like reading or writting. It encourages people to read and write more. We could easily find friends for disscusing and sharing anything related to particular books. I like the fresh layout but a bit unfamiliar with the menu placement in the beginning. It has connection to Facebook/Yahoo!/Hotmail/Gmail/AOL to facilitate its members in inviting friends or searching friends who have already a member to this site. Just try and visit this site yourself!
