Bila perniagaan jual beli kereta terpakai Encik Khairul mengalami kerugian, isteri dan anak-anaknya terus menerus menyalahkannya disebabkan terlalu percaya kepada rakan kongsi. Wow. Walaupun novel ni hanya rekaan semata-mata tapi tangan aku rasa nak tampar isteri dan anak-anak Encik Khairul ni. Encik Khairul tiada sokongan moral. Dia bangkit seorang diri dengan bantuan Allah semata-mata dengan harapan terbuka hati keluarganya aman kembali. Setelah beberapa siri serangan jantung Encik Khairul akhirnya lembut juga keluarga menerima kenyataan yang lelaki itu lebih penting daripada harta dunia. 📚 #donereading Dendam by Malungun #readingisfundamental #readingisfun #readingismagic #readingislife #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #emabaca #malungun #dendam #creativeenterprise #bookstagram #goodreads #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #junebookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CQY-T00MeX4/?utm_medium=tumblr

Yona Ko is working as coordinator at the Jungle, travel agency based on Korea that organises a disaster tours. After being sexually harassed by her boss, she's offered time off and paid trip to the Mui island in Vietnam. At the same time, she has to evaluate the low performing itineraries where a large desert sinkhole and volcano appeared years ago. The disaster begin when she accidentally discovers the dark sides of Mui. I found the ending surprisingly smart and poignant. 📚 #donereading The Disaster Tourist by Yun Ko-Eun #readingisfundamental #readingislife #readingisfun #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #ebookstagram #goodreads #emabaca #thedisastertourist #yunkoeun #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #junebookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CQYFybUMBRV/?utm_medium=tumblr

I've never read such a disturbing book before. Kenji is tourist guide of the nightlife scene in Tokyo and hired by the odd and unsettling tourist, Frank just before the New Year's to take him on tour. Kenji's suspicions grow further when several murders are found in such a gruesome way.

So happy that I took my time to read it without being hurry. Well-written with different themes like race, gender, and cultural identity. 📚 Begin with two young brown girls, the narrator and Tracey, as friends and their relationship changes through time to the assistant to a pop star who decides to do a charity work at the rural village in West Africa. 📚 I found that I was more emotionally drawn to the Tracey storyline by themes running through the adult chapters. #donereading Swing Time by Zadie Smith #readingisfundamental #readingislife #readingisfun #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #ebookstagram #goodreads #emabaca #zadiesmith #swingtime #malaysiamembaca #keepcalmandread #aprilbookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/COQJ4PaMYs0/?igshid=e6qgi1okpj69

Three short stories from H. G. Wells. The stories in this little book were interesting just not overly enjoyable. However, I did really like the concepts from each story : a giant man-eating squid, monstrous machines used for warfare and a magic shop that sells genuine magic tricks. I'm looking forward into other of Wells'. 📚 #donereading The Sea Raiders by H. G.

Himpunan esei, kata-kata, puisi, tanda ingatan dari keluarga, teman dan pengagum Pram. 📚 Sasterawan yang tidak asing ini hingga akhir hayatnya masih mengabdikan diri terhadap tanah airnya. Bila selesai baca, aku rasa berkobar-kobar nak baca semula karya-karya fiksinya. Untuk tetralogi Buru, aku dengan bijaknya baca Rumah Kaca padahal itu adalah volume yang ke 4 😅😅. Tetralogi Arus Balik pula nasib baik aku dah baca Arok Dedes karyanya yang tebal dan fantasi. 📚 2 Tetralogi ni penting dalam menggambarkan situasi Nusantara mulai munculnya kudeta Arok Dedes tahun 1222 hingga maraknya Imperialisme, Kolonialisme dan Kapitalisme - seiring dengan kejatuhan Raja Jawa, yang kemudian dilanjutkan melalui Tetralogi Bumi Manusia a.k.a Buru, yang berkisah tahap awal perkembangan Nasionalisme abad ke-20. 📚 Kisahnya yang menjadi tahanan politik tanpa proses pengadilan juga menjadi signifikan dalam hidup seorang Pram. 📚 #donereading 1000 Wajah Pram Dalam Kata dan Sketsa #readingisfundamental #readingislife #readingisfun #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #bookstagram #goodreads #emabaca #pramoedyaanantatoer #1000wajahpramdalamkatadansketsa #lenteradipantara #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #aprilbookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CNxlACKsuuY/?igshid=nn6u1il02w5m

Todd and Judy had been a couple for 20 years, living a life admired and envied by their friends. Then, come Natasha in their life. Todd gets her pregnant. He leaves Jodi. Jodi's life is turned upside down. 📚 Well, I'm having a difficult time find the right thing to read these days. In short, it lacks momentum. I wish I handn't finished it, but I was 😅🤪.

A woman, Mineko Mitsui was found dead in her own apartment. She was divorced about six months ago, lived alone and worked as a translator.

In the beginning which I found a bit sluggish but I was curious enough about what would happen next to keep reading. Near the end, the pacing sped up but then it took a disturbing part that I don't understand what's going on😅😅🤪. 📚 A group of middle-aged women from the night shifts at a bento box factory band together to help one of them who has killed her abusive husband by offering to dispose of the body. But one of the women has been careless; the police discover some body parts. Besides the police, the women have even more dangerous enemies to worry about and wants revenge. 📚 #donereading Out by Natsuo Kirino #readingislife #readingisfun #readingisfundamental #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #ebookstagram #goodreads #emabaca #natsuokirino #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #marchbookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CMy50Z0srLe/?igshid=1cafopti03tz7

It was so nice to just read without any distractions, especially after being in a really tough reading slump. I had a smile on for the whole time. It's one of those books that just makes you happy instead of hot weather and pms (say no one ever😅😅). 📚 #donereading In Love & Pajamas by Catana Chetwynd #readingislife #readingisfundamental #readingisfun #readingissexy #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #bookstagram #goodreads #emabaca #inloveandpajamas #catanacomics #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #marchbookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CL4B2uksvwT/?igshid=72355agx898g

A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is going to write a fiction. I can't agree more. In this book, she explains why women are seldom found among the big writers. I think this was an interesting read, easy to understand and relate to. Though I wouldn't say this changed my life, it did make me think and look with new perspective on why women writers were so few back then. 📚 #donereading A Room of One's Own by Virginia Woolf #readingislife #readingisfundamental #readingisfun #readingissexy #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #bookstagram #goodreads #emabaca #virginiawoolf #aroomofonesown #penguinclassics #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #februarybookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CLvtSFssnzd/?igshid=1nu0mtgqwl4fy

Memang akan rasa sesuatu bila selesai baca Cerpen Pilihan Sastera Mahua lll ni. Cerpennya hampir sama baik dengan karya sasterawan negara Melayu kita. Semuanya bagus. Trust me. 📚 Antaranya cerpen bertajuk Sepintas Lalu oleh Ai Si yang mengisahkan tentang seorang guru besar yang hampir bersara telah digemparkan dengan berita seorang pelajarnya dicabul oleh pembantu am sekolah. Tapi kerana dia tidak mahu reputasinya dan sekolah buruk, dia menasihatkan ibu mangsa untuk tidak membuat sebarang aduan ke pihak berkuasa. Dia menyatakan rasa simpati dan tidak mahu mangsa mengalami trauma jika perkara ini menjadi berita diketahui umum. 📚 #donereading Dalam Hujan Renyai #readingislife #readingisfundamental #readingisfun #readingissexy #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #bookstagram #goodreads #emabaca #dalamhujanrenyai #cerpenpilihansastera #mahua #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #februarybookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CLUg5ZgMAjS/?igshid=1bp5segb1373o

Bila kau cuba membaca sesuatu yang di luar comfort zone. Sejarah v/s geografi. Entah apa yang aku belajar semasa TITAS. Mungkin aku mengalami mild amnesia. 📚 Bercampur baur bila selesai baca buku ni. Perasaan marah dan geram. Para sejarawan Barat sering menyebut Perang Salib atau Gerakan Keagamaan. Faktanya, semua itu adalah penjajahan dalam bentuk kekerasan dan pertempuran bersenjata yang berlangsung hampir 200 tahun. 📚 #donereading Atlas Perang Salib by Sami bin Abdullah Al-Maghluts #readingislife #readingisfundamental #readingisfun #readingissexy #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #bookstagram #goodreads #emabaca #atlasperangsalib #ptspublishinghouse #samibinabdullahalmaghluts #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #januarybookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CKtP0_OsoS2/?igshid=1yp907v84a7q

Kompilasi kisah-kisah yang berkaitan dengan masalah mental yang pernah dikendalikan oleh Dr Nizam semasa dia bertugas di Australia. Kemurungan yang melampau, skizofrenia, ocd, dementia ialah antara kesihatan mental yang memerlukan pemantauan dari doktor pakar. Apa yang penting sokongan dari orang yang terdekat dan persepsi orang ramai perlulah berubah.

Semuanya berpunca dari surat beranak. What?🤭 📚 Cetakan kesembilan. Kiranya strategi penulis berjaya mencuri tumpuan pembaca. Mengisahkan Iqlima, seorang anak derhaka. Pada aku, tahap kederhakaannya memang tak masuk akal. Sampaikan aku tertanya-tanya kenapa. Dia dikatakan difitnah sebagai anak luar nikah. Boleh je tunjuk surat beranakkan? Musykil aku seketika. 📚 Tapi bukan itu point utamanya. Kuburnya digali semula itu yang menggerunkan. Aku pernah baca kisah serupa tapi lokasinya di luar negara. Kisah Iqlima selama 5 hari di dalam kubur dengan merasa sendiri seksaan-seksaan di atas perbuataannya terdahulu begitu menginsafkan. 📚 #donereading Semusim di Mahsyar by Hadi Fayyadh #readingislife #readingisfundamental #readingisfun #readingissexy #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #goodreads #bookstagram #emabaca #hadifayyadh #semusimdimahsyar #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #januarybookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CKbR0gCsuHE/?igshid=b6ckjnmuf2xt

Dua minggu lebih baru selesai. Sebenarnya aku pernah baca buku ni tahun 2012. Dah lupa kesudahannya dan aku banyak skip bahagian falsafah yang diselitkan. Bukan tak menarik. Padahal nama-nama ahli falsafah tu aku ingat masa ambil paper elektif dulu. Sebab pada aku falsafah, bosan. 📚 Manusia berubahkan? Jadi bila baca kali kedua, aku lebih faham situasi Sophie dan Hilde. Kedua remaja ini sebaya, dalam lingkungan 15 tahun tapi dunia mereka berbeza. Bapa Hilde, seorang mejar tentera pengaman PBB yang ditempatkan di Lubnan telah menulis karangan berkaitan falsafah kepada anaknya, Hilde sempena ulang tahunnya yang ke 15. Watak dalam tulisan bapanya ialah Sophie (sebaya Hilde) dan Alberto. Bermula dari zaman Socrates hingga Freud, bapanya berkisah secara ringkas mengenai falsafah ketamadunan manusia. 📚 #donereading Dunia Sophie by Jostein Gaarder #readingislife #readingisfundamental #readingisfun #readingissexy #readingismagic #readingchallenge2021📚 #igreads #bookstagram #goodreads #emabaca #duniasophie #josteingaarder #itbm #malaysiamembaca #bangsamembaca #keepcalmandread #januarybookchallenge https://www.instagram.com/p/CKWp2GWs05J/?igshid=18frn67babhyf
