I realized that it’s been days since I made this blog and all I do up until now is moving my book reviews here (did it just yesterday and I have no idea why did i make a fuss about it heheh). Haven’t made any proper opening post, so here it is!
But it’s not like anyone’s gonna rea—
Hello?
*knock knock*

Oh, so i’m right.
(It’s a good thing anyway, so I can blab whatever I want.)
Okay.
So.. being on this site all over again is quite like revisiting my adolescent years
(Well, it’s 2016 which means I’m in my legal age already and still fangirl but let’s not talk about that)
And now I think why not start a new one, because it’s easier to leave a trace on posts that I like :D Thank God apparently I only deleted my blog and still have the account. Sooo.. instead of the classic, boring intro, I would rather share the books that I’d love to—plan to read this year.
Haruki Murakami
Ever since I read one particular quote from Norwegian Wood a few years ago, I was so eager to read, at least, one of his books. I just haven’t got the chance to and basically no idea of which should I read first. Last year I was this close to buy The Strange Library (UK Version, with beautiful yet mysterious cover), but cancelled the down payment and bought some YA instead, because I thought it was too thin.
Some people suggested me to read Norwegian Wood first since it’s the simplest Murakami’s book but I am also interested with 1Q84 so I’m still torn between those two ;_; But I (hopefully) will definitely read one of them later this year.
Quiet - Susan Cain
If anyone ever looked at my Goodreads shelves, they would only have found one non-fiction book—Who Moved My Cheese?—and the fact that it did not impress me. That’s what I have always had in mind since forever ago, that self-help books are pointless. But I’m trying to change it now.. maybe i just yet to find that kind of book that fits me.
I see that Quiet is well-researched and seems good, so I decided to give it a try. I already have the book, but still looking for the time to savor it.

Never Let Me Go - Kazuo Ishiguro
Once upon a time, I promised myself I was going to do all my work gracefully, punctually, and without procrastinating. But then I discovered Buzzfeed and I failed to do the third one. Long story short, I came across the list of 65 books you need to read in your 20s and Never Let Me Go pique my interest so I bought it and I can’t wait to read it!
I guess that’s all, because I’m afraid that if I put more books on the list it will just end up being a graveyard. Maybe just add some classics, like To Kill A Mockingbird or Catcher In The Rye. I actually also want to read some of Indonesian author’s books, lately I’m kind of interested in Indonesian literary, so maybe i will read them, too.
Anyway, how do people usually end the non-review posts? Is it just “bye” or is there some fancy way to do it?
Well, since I am new here, I will just go with~~
Until next time!
