the plot :
buku ini ceritanya mengenai Jackie, seorang cewe yg ga PD n mengira dirinya dudutz bgt (padahal ga ndut2 bgt) n ga menarik..
padahal cowo yg dia taksir itu juga suka ama dia.
dia selalu mengira kalau org2 sangat memperhatikan kelebihan berat badannya itu..
review :
buku ini ditulis dengan cara yg funny n witty bgt.
penulisannya seperti penulisan diary, jadi di sini pembaca diajak untuk langsung menyelami pikiran Jackie dari sudut pandang org pertama.
what I learned :
buku ini bikin ak senyum2 sendiri karena kadang2 ak juga bisa bersikap seperti Jackie yang terlalu khawatir akan pemikiran orang lain dan mengira setiap orang berpikiran negatif ttg dirinya.
kadang2 sebagai cewe (terutama cewe) bisa ga PD dengan diri sendiri dan terlalu fokus pada kekurangan diri sendiri alias terlalu self-conscious.
cewe (terutama cewe) harus belajar untuk menerima kekurangan diri (terutama fisik) n coba fokus pada hal2 baik lainnya yang Tuhan sudah beri :)

totto-chan adalah gadis kecil yang tingkat curiosity nya tinggi.
suatu hari dia dikeluarin dari sekolah n mesti pindah ke sekolah baru.
sekolah baru ini beda banget dari sekolah lamanya.
pertama, sekolah ini berlokasi di gerbong kereta..
kedua, sekolah ini membebaskan totto-chan untuk memulai pelajaran yg disukainya dulu.
ketiga, murid2 sekolah harus bawa bekal makanan "dari gunung n laut"
wah2...masih banyak hal2 lain..
yang pasti kepala sekolahnya baik banget...
totto-chan betah bersekolah di situ.
tapi kenapa ya namanya The Little Girl at the Window..
hm..rupanya di sekolah lamanya Totto-chan suka berdiri di depan jendela untuk mengecek apakah ada pengamen yang lewat.

The Plot :
Lauren punya wedding cake shop yg terkenal banget...
Dia kira dia bisa menebak hasil akhir pernikahan (happily ever after or divorce) hanya dengan melihat pasangan memilih wedding cake mereka.
ketika salah satu best friendnya, Paige mau married, dia best friendnya yg satu lagi, Robin bertekad akan menggagalkan pernikahan Paige.
Why? karena Lauren sudah 'menebak' bahwa pernikahan Paige n tunangannya, Steve akan berantakkan dr cara mereka memilih kue.
Tapi tunggu...Robin kan anti cowo (setelah pernikahannya yg gagal) n anti pernikahan
dan Lauren kan lagi bingung jg ttg Mr. Absolutely Right.
The Review :
This book is just an OK book..cause it's very light.
The storyline is OK.
It's about friendship, love but more important it's about finding the "right" thing...hm......less

usually I like reading books with historical background, but this book is not that enjoyable to me.
Amy Tan is famous for her writing of the mixture of Chinese and America culture.
I always love culture, so I decided to read this book.
I usually skim the book first.
Unfortunately, the first and second chapter is not that interesting.
I have to admit that my imagination was not run wild.
The latter chapters were better.
Funny things happened after I read this book.
:) I could't sleep hahahaha :)
I kept thinking about the characters in this book.
This is a story about a woman(her name is Ruth) who (accidentally) find out about Ruth's mother's past.
and who is the bonesetter's daughter???
well, she is Ruth's mother's mother (aka her grandmother)
My favourite part of this book is when Ruth's mother found out that her real mother was her nanny (bao mu) in a painful way.
And I also like the part when Ruth's mother remarried again.
I learn from this book that we should not regret our mistakes in the past.
We should bravely take the consequences of that mistakes.
Let it be a lesson for the future but do not forget it, it should remain as a memory........less

I've almost forgot how much I enjoyed reading Enid's books. I read her books (St. Claire n the naughtiest girl series) in my junior highschool. I used to imagine myself being one of the girl who enroll in St. Claire :) and play lacrosse in my spare time (hahahaha :)).
I borrowed this book in Comic Borrowing Center last Sunday. I still enjoy it now and still imagine myself being Darrel (the main character). I've been reminded about friendship, laughter and character building. Nice book... :) ...less
