Rembulan Tenggelam Di Wajahmu

"an awesome book for an awesome person"
written by a friend in the first page of the book
"u must read it...." she said.


 

well,
i do under estimate the book at first. The title, the cover design....really not my type
its only because i already gave my promised to read it.

but what i found behind all that i categorize as "not my type", is something different.

if u ever watch WANTED, then i hope you will agree with me if i said that the moral message in this book is almost
similar with what the movie said.

the idea is about how we,connected each others...
about how what we do, connect and influenced others...weaved each other in a complex relations.

almost, i said.
because The Fraternity in WANTED interpretate those connection with arrogance.
sounds silly if they thought they had a right to kill others, only based on weaving errors of the fabric.

while the book, interpretate in a humble.
and said that those connectivity is always meaningfull
that no matter how small it is, what we do is affect others.
that every question has an answer.
only if you could just open your heart.
Because live is fair. Always fair.
Because HE is there. Always there.

read it,
open your heart.
and you will know what i mean.

best part :
"kalau Tuhan menginginkannnya terjadi, maka sebuah kejadian pasti terjadi, tidak peduli seluruh isi langit-bumi bersekutu menggagalkannya....Sebaliknya, kalau Tuhan tidak menginginkannya,maka sebuah kejadian niscaya tidak akan terjadi, tak peduli seluruh isi langit-bumi bersekutu melaksanakannya...
Kejadian buruk itu datang sesuai takdir langit...hanya ada satu hal yang bisa mencegahnya...satu hal!sama seperti siklus sebab-akibat sebelumnya, yaitu berbagi!. Ya, berbagi apa saja dengan orang lain. Tidak, sebenarnya berbagi tidak bisa mencegahnya secara langsung, tetapi dengan berbagi, kau akan membuat hatimu damai...hanya orang - orang dengan hati damailah yang bisa menerima kejadian buruk dengan lega.
hanya orang - orang berhati damailah."

Brida by Paulo Coelho

Tadi malem, pas hunting buku di periplus....rani liat bukunya paulo coelho yang judulnya Brida...katanya best seller.
yang noted buat rani bukan best sellernya..tapi deskripsi belakang bukunya
bunyinya gini :

but how will i know who my soulmate is ? 'by taking risks' she said to Brida. By risking failure, disappointment, disillusion, but never ceasing in your search for love. As long as you keep looking, you will triumph in the end. 

SIGH - menohok ya ? triumph in the end ? hiks....

Buku : The Complete Peanuts, 1959-1962

 

A stupid cartoon shows that children life's can also be complicated,even when it only talk about baseball game, lousy team, homework, friends,....

I love peanuts ....charlie n the gang
A great characther combinations of snoopy, charlie, lucy,linus, schoeder and many more..

Buku : Dunia Mimpi

Manga - for me - always exist in a different level of imagination
I guess i would never know how they gain the main idea of the story
All i know, no matter what the line is..u can always categorized manga as good companion to spend your time

Dunia Mimpi is not my first manga, but i love it until i decided to have all copy of the series.
(and i dont care if it means i have to be very patient searching in every secondhand book store)

The story starts when an ordinary girl - Noriko - jump into another world (accidentally of course)
A world where her destiny already written
A world where prophecy about her already become a legend
A world where the people already waiting for her...as the hope of changes..

A world where a man named Izaku already waiting....

Izaku is a man who since little already been excommunited...thrown even by his own mother.
All related to a prophecy tells that he, will grow into an evil..king of evil, powerful ones.

and he had been waiting for her..to kill her.
because the prophecy said that he, as the king of dark will only exist if Noriko as hope of light exist.

many things happens then....
and when their existance interfered by many people with their own importance,
izaku decided to safe both of them...
run and hide from one place to another...
he promised himself in find a way to stay with Noriko and protect her
no matter if that means he will have to change into the evil.
because the more he close with her, the more the evil inside him exist
and the more the evil exist, the more pain comes in his biological transformation.

(anybody knows where can i found this kind of guy ?)

though what happens next is not exactly that way...
though the prophecy is not 100% correct...
because at the end, the one who can safe Izaku is only Noriko...

Buku ? Baca ? Beli ?


Belakangan banyak yang invite untuk share review buku via goodreads.

hmmm....bukannya ga suka baca...
buat saya, baca itu kebutuhan...
ga bisa tidur kalau ga pake pengantar bacaan....

if it good books, tidurnya bisa dipastikan pagi...and yes akibatnya bakal ngantuk di kantor :(
klo bukunya "ngga banget" such as buku fisika, sistem linear, antena, atau tutorial cisco ...bisa di pastikan ga sampe 1 halaman saya dah tidur...
baca itu temen paling oke dalam perjalanan nomor dua setelah music...

So never leave the door without book...
I love my book...sampe suka agak bete kalau ada yang minjem tapi ga di manage...
Contohnya ? ade saya satu - sayanya itu...baca laskar pelangi 2 minggu di pegang dan di bawa kemana - mana....tapi belum abis setengah buku dan udah ga jelas pun tampangnya...and this is not the first time.......duh...untung sodara sedarah :p

I love my book, apalagi kalau berjejer rapi di lemari....
Masalahnya sepertinya susah....karena di rumah itu one for all and all for one...
Bagus sih...beda segmen semua ada
Mau buku agama ? ada punya Ma dan Pa
Mau buku ekonomi praktis ? investasi ? self motivation ? ada punya minyonk

Cuma ya itu tadi...beda management...kalau udah keluar lemari....bakal susah lagi nyarinya .....kudu ngoprek semua kamar....lemari bawah tangga, tumpukan koran....belum lagi kalau di sobek rara ...( yang dulu waktu bayi hobinya makan kertas ).....whuaaaa

Bukan juga ga suka share

Buat saya, buku bagus itu adalah buku yang bertahun tahun setelah saya baca, saya masih inget tentang apa buku itu, jalan ceritanya, tokohnya, nilai yang bisa di ambil...atau bahkan sampai detail detailnya...maklum, memory terbatas..jadi cuma yang bagus - bagus aja yang bisa di inget :p

Buku bagus juga harus punya something....nambah ilmu mah std kali ya..tapi buku itu harus bener - bener bagus untuk bisa ngebuka pikiran kita, menggugah hati kita...

Share ? jelas...buku itu topik paling aman dan general......apalagi ama cowo lucu :p
Eeeeh, udah baca ini ? itu ? bagus yaaa....kalau anu ? ono ? itu ? ( *hayah )
Paling ngga kita bisa tau minimal 1 % dari orang itu dengan tau apa bacaannya

Tapi jujur, kadang saya suka ga konsisten...

Baca bukunya tergantung mood...kalau baca buku suka dipotong trus pindah ke buku baru lain yang menurut saya lebih menarik...terus dipotong lagi kalau ada yang lain lagi...ntar pas berhenti..tergantung moodnya mau nyambung duluan yang mana...yang pertama, yang kedua ..atau yang ketiga....

Tapi mostly itu cuma terjadi sama buku2 garing kok...( *membela diri )
Satu lagi ketidak konsistenan saya adalah suka kalap kalau di toko buku....
Yang review nya bagus pasti di beli....walhasil sering ketipu juga...ternyata membosankan..garing ...terlalu ringan hingga tak membekas...dlsb

Padahal suka sadar sendiri....ih, kayaknya udah punya buku ini deh dimana ya ?...
Kenapa belum di baca ya ? :(

Kemaren malem sempet ngitung...jumlah buku yang belum saya baca ada 18 buku
13 buku di kost, 2 buku di rumah, dan 2 buku di kantor.......tercatat diantaranya adalah 2 kumpulan komik snoopy ( kayaknya udah setahun sejak dibeli ), 3 novel tertalogi buru pak pram, 3 novel popular ( female undercover, charlie and leaving microsoft to change the world ), 1 self motivation ( fight like a tiger win ike a champion ), 2 buku agama ( rindu tiada akhir, la tahzan ), 1 biografi nabi Muhammad SAW, 1 buku filsuf cina ....dlsb....

Jadi, berbagi review buku via goodreads sepertinya ga sehat untuk saya saat ini
Nanti tergoda buat beli...atau ganti prioritas bacaan....
Padahal ada banyak yang belum di baca......
Kan ?

Buku : Bumi Manusia - Tetralogi Buru


This is my first Mr. Pram's book,
and soon after, i knew why many people adore him.

Thoughts, feelings and lessons are the main soul of the book.
Mr. Pram took a lot of part playing with it in order to attend its complete charachter, mostly minke
the story runs slow, smooth and beautiful, with proper details in high level literature.

never judge a book from its cover...

My favourite part is when jean saying :

"Love is beautiful minke, too beautiful to be true in this short life"
"Love is beautiful minke, and also the pain might comes with it. people should be brave enaugh for it"
