a sleepy review (laughs shyly).

this book is written beautifully with a "choppy" style. I don't know how to say it, but yeah, this kind of writing style works just fine with me. the only thing that didn't work for me is the main character itself, Wren. I completely understand why she's so unstable, because a lot of things happened in her past and those are not very pleasant. but, it's just too much. the more I read this, the more I felt frustrated. I don't even want to finish this book at first but my curiosity beat me to it and I'm glad I did.

a very short review :)

to be honest, I still enjoyed the first book more than this one. this book feels a lot mature and beautiful but it lacks of something. I'm not sure, it's kind of hard to pointed it out. this book has three chapters in it. chapter one can't seem to make me amazed and the second chapter is just so so. I'm really liking the last chapter, though. it's great, totally a page turner. it's either because I like the strains of a melancholy mournful words or Leav is really that skilled when she writes something in a poetic manner that make me blown away. it's just painfully beautiful to read :)

a short review :)

I didn't expect anything when I decided to read this book. I just need to read something light and entertaining but alas it was far from that. There's no such things as a-light-read when it comes to Coelho's books, I guess (laughs). I thought this book's going to talk about first love and its irony but I was wrong, this book's mostly talking about spiritual things and it's kind of confusing for me since I'm not a Christian. So, I find it hard to related to the story.

Review singkat :)

Cewek!!! adalah buku kedua dari Esti Kinasih yang kubaca setelah Fairish. Jujur saja, aku masih lebih menikmati Fairish daripada kisahnya Langen CS ini. Bukunya memang seru tapi unsur lebay didalamnya itu agak terlalu. Aku pun gak begitu suka dengan cara para cewek ini menyuarakan emansipasinya. Kisahnya sendiri cukup simpel. Ketiga cewek ini, Langen, Fani dan Feby tidak terima jika pacar-pacar mereka mengorbankan malam minggu yang seharusnya dihabiskan bersama malah digunakan untuk latihan naik gunung. well, kecuali Fani karena memang dia terpaksa berpacaran dengan Bima yang suka seenaknya itu.
