This is my pensieve

I am simply loving all kind of books, except:

1. The one with very long introduction..

2. The one that required logic of less than dolphin
(plot hole every where...)

3. The one that I learnt nothing except for how to get the most astonishing prince in your ordinary life

4. The one that required one liter of tears and made my life miserable (not that I hate it, sometime I read this kind of book only when my period is coming).

5. The one that give me motivation at all, especially to hate the author who no one i know, but write how to get million dollars.

I read a lot of books, but more books are purchased and haven't read by me.

I tried my best to write books that i just read here, but it requires time and dedication, which sometimes that I don't have it (sorry).

No Longer Human by Osamu Dazai

No Longer Human Author : Osamu Dazai Year 1st Published : 1948 Publisher : Tuttle *** The poignant and fascinating story of a young man who is caught between the breakup of the traditions of a northern Japanese aristocratic family and the impact of Western ideas. Portraying himself as a failure, the protagonist of Osamu Dazai's No Longer Human narrates a seemingly normal life even while he feels himself incapable of understanding human beings. Oba Yozo's attempts to reconcile himself to the world around him begin in early childhood, continue through high school, where he becomes a "clown" to mask his alienation, and eventually lead to a failed suicide attempt as an adult. Without sentimentality, he records the casual cruelties of life and its fleeting moments of human connection and tenderness. *** Pernah membaca karya Haruki Murakami? Franz Kafka? Albert Camus? Jika Ya untuk ketiganya, maka kamu tidak akan asing dengan No Longer Human milik Osamu...

Counterattack at Thirty by Sohn Won-Pyung

Playbooks Edition From the bestselling author of ALMOND, The Devil Wears Prada meets The Office in this witty, humane, and ultimately transformative story of a group of young workers who rebel against the status quo. Jihye is an ordinary woman who has never been extraordinary. In her administrative job at the Academy, she silently tolerates office politics and the absurdities of Korean bureaucracy. Forever only one misplaced email away from career catastrophe, she effectively becomes a master of the silent eye-roll and the tactical coffee run. But all her efforts to endure her superiors and the semi-hostile work environment they create are upended when a new intern, Gyuok Lee, arrives. Like a pacifist version of V in V for Vendetta, Gyuok recruits a trio of office allies to carry out plans for minor revenge. Together, these four “rebels” commit tiny protests against those in more powerful positions through spraying graffiti, throwing eggs, and writing anonymous exposés. But as th...

Wedding People by Alison Espach

Softcover version It’s a beautiful day in Newport, Rhode Island, when Phoebe Stone arrives at the grand Cornwall Inn wearing a green dress and gold heels, not a bag in sight, alone. She's immediately mistaken by everyone in the lobby for one of the wedding people, but she’s actually the only guest at the Cornwall who isn’t here for the big event. Phoebe is here because she’s dreamed of coming for years—she hoped to shuck oysters and take sunset sails with her husband, only now she’s here without him, at rock bottom, and determined to have one last decadent splurge on herself. Meanwhile, the bride has accounted for every detail and every possible disaster the weekend might yield except for, well, Phoebe and Phoebe's plan—which makes it that much more surprising when the two women can’t stop confiding in each other. **** The Wedding People Author : Alison Espach Published year : 2024 Pages: 384 Language : English Genre : Literary Fiction, Fiction, Romance Age recommendation: 21...
