L



Niy buku kereeeeeeeeeeen polllll!!

It talks about Ava Torino, a young executive who's a smoker and doesn't believe in LOVE! She's looking for someone/ anyone who's name starts with L (to complete the 26 alphabets). Yeah, she's a player until she meets her L.

Before she meets L, she meets someone named Rei. And like Before Sunrise, they can have a nice conversation (between two total strangers). Ava tells him about her crazy adventure (memacari 25 orang dengan alfabet yang beda2. Tiap orang dipacari selama lebih kurang dua bulanan). Akhirnya mereka pisah sih biz ngobrol-ngobrol. Baru gitu Ava ketemu L-nya.

Nah...ternyata...the so-called "Fate" mempertemukan mereka lagi dan lagi. Singkat cerita Ava tunangan ma L-nya sementara hatinya mulai tertuju ke Rei. Uh oh...

Ini cerita cinta yang sedih, tapi indah. Cara Rei nunjukin kasihnya ke Ava, cara dia kasih wejangan ke Ava..so beeautiful. Termasuk cara pandang Rei tentang ibadah. Dia bilang, kira-kira (g inget bener), gini:"Aku ibadah karena aku merasa perlu memeluk dan dipeluk Tuhan." I couldn't stop reading and was crying when I read it. 393 pages from Saturday evening to Monday evening!! I broke my own record.

Aku dulu pernah baca Romeo-Julietnya Shakespeare, tapi g merasa kaya gini. Maksudku, aku belum bisa menghargai keindahan dalam kesedihan. Bayangin!! Biasanya yang kusebut indah tuh sesuatu yang berakhir bahagia, tapi biz baca itu, bisa-bisanya aku mikir ada keindahan dalam kesedihan!!!

If u like reading, u MUST read this book. G bakalan nyesel deh baca. Ku mau beli satu buat koleksi hehe

    I know what u feel...about valuing happiness in sadness...coz lately i really experience that, it really hurts but if u find the beauty, u still can find it even in sadness Hhhhh...

  2. I know...but I can't write it fluently in English. Somehow, for things that really make me excited, I'd rather pour everything out in my mother tongue.

    Scary, huh? Those are comics, more pictures than words, jak haha.. For novel, this is my new record :D
