Cinta < adj >: suka sekali; sayang benar; kasih sekali; terpikat.

Ada bahagia dan kepedihan dalam cinta. Cinta yang terpendam menimbulkan resah, pengkhianatan pun tak lepas dari cinta, atau bahkan cinta berlebihan sehingga menyesakkan. Galau dan rindu pun dituturkan dalam ribuan kata di buku ini.

Autumn Once More membawa kita ke banyak sisi cinta dari kumpulan pengarang, mulai dari pengarang profesional hingga editor yang harus jadi pengarang “dadakan” dan menunjukkan kreativitas mereka dalam tema abadi sepanjang masa.

Inilah tumpahan rasa dan obsesi karya aliaZalea, Anastasia Aemilia, Christina Juzwar, Harriska Adiati, Hetih Rusli, Ika Natassa, Ilana Tan, Lea Agustina Citra, Meilia Kusumadewi, Nina Addison, Nina Andiana, Rosi L. Simamora, dan Shandy Tan.

Musing Mondays #2 (2 July 2013)

Musing Mondays is a meme which hosted by Should Be Reading.

Musing Mondays asks you to muse about one of the following each week…
• Describe one of your reading habits.
• Tell us what book(s) you recently bought for yourself or someone else, and why you chose that/those book(s).
• What book are you currently desperate to get your hands on? Tell us about it!
• Tell us what you’re reading right now — what you think of it, so far; why you chose it; what you are (or, aren’t) enjoying it.
• Do you have a bookish rant? Something about books or reading (or the industry) that gets your ire up? Share it with us!
• Instead of the above questions, maybe you just want to ramble on about something else pertaining to books — let’s hear it, then!

My musing :

I actually live in Surabaya, but this month I have to go to Bandung for an internship for a month. Which means, I'm now living in Bandung. I was reading Where We Belong by Emily Giffin when it was time for me to leave Surabaya. I thought I'll finish the book before I leave. But I haven't finished it, -meh- and I don't bring the book with me -great-. Now I'm dying to know the continuation of the story. argh!

What about you ? How's your Monday ?

[Review] The Naked Traveler 4 - Trinity

Title of Book : The Naked Traveler 4
Author : Trinity
Publisher : B-First

Jalan-jalan bersama Trinity memang tak ada habisnya. Tiga seri laris The Naked Traveller ternyata tak cukup untuk menceritakan pengalaman seru Trinity menjelajah ke berbagai negara. Sesuai ciri khasnya, Trinity mampu memberikan “kesan baru” pada setiap tempat yang ia singgahi. Selalu ada kejutan yang akan membuat kita melakukan refleksi.

Kali ini, kita akan diajak untuk menikmati Afrika, makan zebra di Namibia, dipenjara dan ketemu hiu putih raksasa, eksisnya Ladyboys di Thailand, sampai dipalak anak kecil di Kalimantan. Tambah lagi, kita juga bakal tetep sirik setengah mati sama cerita Trinity yang makan sushi paling enak sedunia dan nonton festival Unta di Pushkar.

Sundays in Bed with ... The Book of Secrets

This meme is hosted by Midnight Book Girl. Sundays In Bed With ... is about sharing what book you are reading/wish to read in bed Sunday morning. 

Today is my first Sunday living in another city. I want to spend my morning by reading a book then I can explore the city later. 

[Review] Class (Cum Laude) - Cecily Von Ziegesar

Title of Book : Class (Cum Laude)
Author : Cecily Von Ziegesar
Publisher : Hyperion Books

These five friends came to Dexter to get a college degree. What they'll really get is an education. ""Gossip Girl" goes to college in this tart satire . . . crisp and surprisingly steely." "--Publishers Weekly" When five freshmen arrive at Dexter College, a small liberal arts school in the quiet town of Home, Maine, the drama unfolds as quickly as the first keg is tapped. There's Shipley--blonde and beautiful, the object of envy and more than a little lust. Her edgy roommate, Eliza, came to Dexter to get noticed, and she has the attitude and the mouth to prove it. Tom is a jock-turned-artist--handsome, privileged, used to getting his own way. Sensitive Nick is Tom's wake-and-bake, pot-smoking roommate. And then there's Adam Gatz, a freckle-faced local boy and his not-so-little sister, Tragedy. As Shipley, Eliza, Tom, Nick, and Adam find out, the first year of college is more than credits and cramming. It's a time of lust, love, secrecy, and scandal.
