Haritu aku baru saja menyudahkan bacaan novel ni... Kisahnya memang menarik... Cuma seperti biasa aku akan mengambil masa yang lama untuk menyudahkan pembacaan sesebuah novel... Tambahan pula sekarang aku dah tak boleh membaca dalam kenderaan bergerak... Novel Bridget Jones's Diary masih belum habis aku baca... Entah kenapa, tiba2 takde mood pulak nak habiskan baca novel tu... Sekarang ni aku baru start baca novel Cinta Jangan Kau Pergi karya Kak Norhayati Berahim jugak... Novelnya agak nipis... Harap2 dapat sudahkan dengan cepat...

Misi BESAR...
Hahaha, macam nak berperang pulak tajuk entry kali ni...Saja buat gimik la tu...Sebenarnya misi ni memang besar buat aku...Misinya : habiskan membaca semua novel2 yang aku ada sekarang ni menjelang tahun 2012...
Tau kenapa aku pasang misi ni? Sebab tahun depan nak tambah koleksi lagi...Huhuhuhu...Biasalah, tahun depan mesti pegi Pesta Buku seperti tahun2 sebelum ni...Dan aku tak pernah balik dengan tangan kosong kalau g Pesta Buku...
So, sebelum koleksi novel2 yang belum dibaca bertambah bilangannya, baik aku pasang misi...Dan, aku cuma ada dalam 3 bulan(lebih kurang 90 hari lagi menjelang tahun depan) untuk mem'possible'kan misi ni...
P/S : Mission Possible? InsyaAllah...

Bridget Jones's Diary
Novel ni dah lama aku beli (biasalah tu, huhu)...Aku dah pernah tengok filemnya tapi tak ingat dah...Sebab tu nak baca novel ni...Tapi taulah, kalau baca buku bahasa inggeris, akan mengambil masa yang lama...Pembacaan aku terhenti seketika...Dan akan disambung sedikit demi sedikit...Nanti aku dah habis baca, aku bagi review lain...
P/S : Sementara tu, aku baca novel Bahasa Melayu - Harum Chempaka tulisan Norhayati Berahim...

Bogel Menuju Tuhan
Hmmm, jangan salah anggap dengan tajuk buku ni...Buku ni adalah hasil kompilasi nukilan sajak dan blog post kepunyaan Zahiril Azim...Namanya memang familiar sebab dia pelakon yang semakin melonjak naik namanya...
Aku admit, aku jarang tengok drama melayu...Tapi aku pernah juga tengok Zahiril berlakon...Dia memang berbakat besar...Ooopss, enough bout him because the main topic here is bout his book... =)
Buku ni aku dapat tau daripada kawan sekerja aku, Anis...Dan aku baca buku ni pun, pinjam dari Anis...Thanx, Anis...Aku memang suka tulis sajak...Dan kadang2, suka baca nukilan orang lain yang terpapar di surat khabar...Dan aku memang suka cara penulisan sajak Zahiril...Walaupun kadang2 dia agak lantang di dalam sajak2nya, tapi siapa kisah? Itu adalah medium meluahkan apa yang dirasa...
Bila dah baca buku sajak Zahiril, mula la aku berangan nak publish sajak aku...Hehehe...Actually, dah lama aku ada niat nak publish sajak2 aku...Tapi, tak ada pihak yang berminat...Iyalah, siapa aku ni kan...
P/S : Zahiril, good job!
Baju Pengantin Mak Andam
Novel ni aku beli sebab aku tau aku akan suka cara penulisannya yang sempoi...Novel yang menarik dan sesuai dibaca bagi menghilangkan bosan dan tension kerana membacanya, aku kadang kala tersenyum sendiri dengan telatah watak utamanya, Aleya dan Zain...Jalan cerita yang menarik...Gaya penulisan yang bersahaja begitu mudah dibaca dan sesuai dibaca di waktu senggang ataupun ketika di dalam pengangkutan awam, atau ketika menunggu train...
Aleya sebenarnya sudah jatuh cinta pada Zain tapi tidak mahu mengakuinya kerana dia dikejar bayang2 kekecewaan cinta pertamanya dahulu...Dia menerima Zain sebagai kawan dan akhirnya bertambah akrab...Zain memang sudah sah2 cintakan Aleya tapi memandangkan Aleya sering mengelak untuk berbicara mengenai cinta, Zain hanya mengikut rentak Aleya...
Lama cinta yang Zain pendam dalam hatinya...Patah hati bila dia melihat Aleya berdua-duaan makan dengan bekas kekasih pertamanya...Lalu Zain mula menarik diri...Selsebihnya, kena baca sendiri...Huhu.
P/S : Memang best! Thumbs up!!!

Masih Setia
Lama sungguh tak update blog...Lepas habis baca The Notebook aritu, aku baca novel Masih Setia yang dipinjamkan oleh colleague aku, Kak Iejat...Dah lama novel ni dipinjamkan tapi tak berkesempatan untuk dibaca...Almaklum, terlalu banyak yang perlu dihabiskan bacaan...Mulanya aku bagi kakak aku baca dulu novel ni...Tapi dia tak menyudahkan bacaannya sebab dia pening dengan dialek Minang yang diselitkan di dalam novel ini...Pada mulanya aku pun fikir dalam novel ini wataknya berdialek Minang...Pening nak memahamkannya...Tapi, dialek Minang itu cuma sedikit sahaja di permulaan novel...Jalan ceritanya menarik namun dapat dijangka siapakah watak yang sering bermain gitar dan menyanyikan lagu syahdu di malam hari itu...Penulis bijak mengolah jalan cerita dan mengajak pembaca berfikir apakah kesudahan novel ini dan siapakah yang dipilih Miera...Ayat2 yang digunakan juga bisa membuatkan jantung aku berdegup kencang seolah-olah aku adalah Miera...Biasalah, aku kan memang suka berangan dan meletakkan diri di dalam watak sesebuah novel yang dibaca...Huhuhu, jiwang...
Sekarang ni aku tengah baca novel Baju Pengantin Mak Andam...Novel yang berunsur lucu...Kakak aku dan juga Kak Iejat sudahpun membacanya dan mereka berdua sependapat mengatakan novel ini menarik untuk bacaan santai...Tapi, sejak masuk bulan puasa ni, tak bersentuh pun novel ni...Tak berganjak penanda bukunya...Hehehe, InsyaAllah aku akan habiskan baca dalam masa terdekat...

The Notebook
Just finished reading this novel...I bought this novel long time ago yet I cannot find a time to read; as usual...This novel is one of Nicholas Saparks's novel...And one of my favorite novel too...This novel is about eternal love...Hope that I can be loved like this until I died...The patience Noah have in his way to get Allie to remember all her memories with him...Even Allie cannot remember who he is...And when finally Allie recall him, I was so happy and my tears falling in my cheeks spontaneously...Yet, I'm smiling happily...
This is an excerpt from the novel that touched my heart the most :
'Dusk, I realized then, is just an illusion, because the sun is either above the horizon or below it. And means that day and night are linked in a way that few things are; there cannot be one without the other, yet they cannot exist at the same time. How would it feel, I remember wondering, to be always together, yet forever apart?'

Mengapa sukar untuk berubah?
Untuk berubah memang memerlukan pengorbanan dan keazaman yang tinggi...Berubah kepada sesuatu yang lebih baik, memang bagus dan bukan semua orang akan tergerak atau dengan kata lainnya, mendapat Hidayah untuk berubah...Mungkin Hidayah dariNya cepat, lambat atau tiada langsung untuk kita...Tapi bila kita hendak berubah dan ada yang menghalang, adakah kita cukup kuat untuk mempertahankan niat kita untuk berubah itu? Kenapa agaknya ada yang tidak mahu kita berubah? Mungkin mereka mahu mempergunakan kita untuk aktiviti tidak sihat, atau tidak baik...Hairan bila ada yang menentang perubahan kearah kebaikan...Bukankah kita patut rasa bangga dan sama2 memasang niat untuk berubah? Bagi yang telah mendapat Hidayah untuk berubah, kenapa perlu takut? Kenapa perlu fikir apa yang akan terjadi? Kenapa perlu takut jika kawan atau insan tersayang tidak suka akan perubahan kita lantas meninggalkan kita? Adakah kita akan kerugian jika kita kehilangan orang yang tak mahu melihat kita berubah ke arah kebaikan? Bagi aku, apa yang penting adalah diri sendiri...Kita mengambil langkah untuk berubah adalah untuk kebaikan diri sendiri...Dan jika ada yang menentang, biarkan saja...Kalau kita terpaksa kehilangan mereka, biarkan...Kerana kita tidak akan keseorangan bila kita ditinggalkan orang yang tidak memahami dan menyayangi kita sepenuhnya ini...Jika orang yang menentang itu betul2 sayangkan kita, tentu dia tidak akan menghalang niat baik kita...Mudah mudahan dia juga akan mendapat Hidayah dariNya untuk berubah ke arah kebaikan...AMIN.
Versus - Hlovate
Novel ni, aku beli dari blog shopping...Aku saja2 buka blog novel2 terpakai...Then, baca sinopsis novel ni, terpikat dan terus contact blogger tu untuk urusan jual beli...Selang beberapa hari, novel dihantar ke ofis...Memandangkan waktu itu aku masih belum habis baca P.S. I Love You, aku simpan dulu novel ni...Lepas je habis baca P.S. I Love You, aku start baca novel ni...Best dan tak sangka novel ni ada diselitkan unsur keagamaan...Bahan bacaan ringan yang penuh informasi dan sesuai bagi mereka yang tercari cari arah dalam kehidupan (seperti aku)...Novel yang bagus untuk muhasabah diri...Menghiburkan sambil berdakwah (I can say that)...Walaupun ini novel pertama Hlovate yang aku baca, aku dah terpikat...Dan sudahnya pada Pesta Buku 2011 yang lalu, aku dah beli lagi 2 buah novel karya Hlovate jugak (aA+bB, Tunas)...Harap novel2 ini pun menarik untuk dibaca...
Petikan dari novel Versus :
"Please, Minn. Bukak tingkap bilik you."
"Huh?"
I'm freezing right outside your window. On the roof."
Minn tegak dari baringnya, telefon bimbit masih di tangan.
"You what?"
"No kidding. Please... "balas Ashraff Omar.
Mata Minn menala ke tingkap yang ditutupi langsir. Putus fius ke apa mamat ni.
"Enough of your tricks, AO"
"Minn, I'm dead serious."
Ashraff Omar berdiri di atas bumbung porch rumah Minn Edina
"Minn, you nak bagi I masuk atau you nak tengok I jatuh?"

P.S. I Love You
Even though I'm not Cecilia Ahern's fan, I fall in love with this novel...When I read it, I can imagine the scene...The way it's been written is simple and can be easily understand...When Holly cries, sometimes it brings tears to my eyes too(no surprise since I'm a very sensitive person)...This novel is not a waste to buy and a good novel to read...I already finish reading it about two months back...Although I already said I want to write more this year but it always hard for me to find a time to sit and write to my blog on my novel review...But I read a lot than I did last year...
This is one of Gerry's letter to Holly :
Dear Holly, I don't have much time. I don't mean literally, I mean you're out buying ice cream and you'll be home soon. But I have a feeling this is the last letter, because there is only one thing left to tell you. It isn't to go down memory lane or make you buy a lamp, you can take care of yourself without any help from me. It's to tell you how much you move me, how you changed me. You made me a man, by loving me Holly. And for that, I am eternally grateful... literally. If you can promise me anything, promise me that whenever you're sad, or unsure, or you lose complete faith, that you'll try to see yourself through my eyes. Thank you for the honor of being my wife. I'm a man with no regrets. How lucky am I. You made my life, Holly. But I'm just one chapter in yours. There'll be more. I promise. So here it comes, the big one. Don't be afraid to fall in love again. Watch out for that signal, when life as you know it ends. P.S. I will always love you
P.S. For those who haven't read this novel yet, go read and enjoy this great novel...

Welcome 2011
Finally, it's another new year... It's been a year since I last update on my blog... Lately, I've been lost interest on my hobby... I read less, I write less but it's all that I very love to do... Don't know why I'm loosing my interest... But, I will read and write more this year... And as the current result, I already finished reading a novel lend by my colleague to me... It's not my favorite author though... But since I started reading the novel, I start to enjoy it... But still, I have so many novels to finish... Hopefully, I will read a lot more before I started buying more, hehehe... Reading always been my way to enjoy my life... It started when I was being a librarian for three years at my primary school... Instead of arranging the books neatly on the shelves, I pick up some interesting title and start reading it and finished it if the book is not thick... But I do a good job arranging books... I really like to be surrounded by tons of books... The feeling to see all the books arranged neatly, the smell of the books... It's so nice... Untill now, I like to spend my time at bookstore... I can even stay in the bookstore for an hour, alone without any accompany... All my friends always like to spend thier time shopping at shoes store or clothes store, but I rather be in the bookstore... Never mind if nobody wants to accompany me... I like to be alone, surrounded by all the books... Before this, I'd try for the job in the bookstore... Don't know why they didn't call me back... Maybe they didn't see how serious I love books... Hehe, I better stop writing about this... Hope to update my blog regularly eventhough nobody's reading it...
Butterfly
A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day, a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it gotten as far as it could and it could go no futher.
Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings.
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support, which would contract in time. Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shrivelled wings. It never was able to fly.
What the man, in his kindness and haste, did not understand that the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were the nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If nature allowed us to go through our life without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been.
