  • #mystery #thriller I Let You Go adalah buku pertama yang aku baca daripada penulis ini, Clare Mackintosh. Dah berkenan lama nak baca buku Mackintosh cuma baru tahun lepas tercapai hasrat nak baca. Terus baca dua buku :) . . Banyak cerita dalam buku ini. Pada mulanya, aku ingatkan kisah nak cari pembunuh kepada kemalangan langgar lari yang meragut nyawa kanak-kanak berusia 5 tahun, Jacob, tapi rupanya itu hanya pencetus cerita. Banyak lagi cerita yang berkaitan dengan kemalangan itu. Bersambung-sambung, bersimpang-siur jalan ceritanya. . . Namun begitu, plot cerita berkembang dengan teratur. Pengakhiran Part 1 yang mengubah persepsi aku kepada watak utama, Jenna, membuatkan aku terus membaca Part 2. Serius apa yang aku fikirkan salah sama sekali. Pandai betul writer twist cerita! . . Storyline is quite slow actually but I still liked it. Part 2 is fast-paced than Part 1. Ada misteri di sana sini, perkembangan setiap watak juga berlaku dengan baik. At first we know about Jenna from one side of her story and in Part 2, we know about the other side of her story. Only one character I strongly dislike in this book, Ray. Even penjahat pun aku tak suka tapi aku lagi tak suka Ray, seorang anggota polis yang menyiasat kemalangan it. Youโ€™ll know why I donโ€™t like Ray if you read this book ๐Ÿ˜… . To be honest, it was difficult to share a review of this book without giving a spoiler. I really want to tell you why I think differently about Jenna in Part 1 and turned out it was wrong, but I could not tell here. Please read this book, if youโ€™re interested, then we can discuss this book together. Just DM me anytime :) . . Rating: 4/5 ๐ŸŒŸ . #flatlaysbyiqa #siqahbookreviews #claremackintosh #iletyougo

When Yvonne being attempted murder, three of her close friends has become a suspect because they were the last person Yvonne had contacted. __ I found it so difficult to put down once I started it. I liked her writing style. The book consists of short chapters and each chapter is about a different character so it makes you more understand the storyline. At first, I got confused with the characters and stories, however, as the book progressed, I learned to understand all of their life and know that actually, Yvonne is not a good friend after all. But still, attempted murder is wrong! __ I read this book slowly, one by one because I don't want to miss even a tiny little thing. Donโ€™t skip even though you think the story is quite long. __ Other than friendship, this book emphasized the story of family and relationships between husband and wife. How honesty is really important in each relationship, how the problem can be solved by being honest with each other. How they still be together and support each other after the incident. I loved the ending when everything comes back to normal, or much better. __ Overall, this is a good psychological book that requires your full attention while reading it.

  • I like Ellen. I watched some of her TV shows and I think sheโ€™s a genuinely lovely and funny person.

Half parts of the book were so good and funny. I found some motivations as self reminders in those chapters. Journal Entries chapter makes me want immediately to really consistent in writing a journal. __ I know itโ€™s a comedy book but sometimes I just could not help to understand some of the humor. Iโ€™m not getting it. It felt like she had no idea what to write and just talks about anything to finish the book. Maybe I need to listen to the audiobook that narrated by Ellen herself and thatโ€™ll make this book more enjoyable, I guess.

What is the title and how do you feel so far? __ Iโ€™m currently reading a mystery thriller by Clare Mackintosh bertajuk I See You. Ini adalah buku kedua daripada penulis yang aku baca. Suka dengan gaya penulisan Clare Mackintosh dalam I Let You Go dan itulah sebabnya aku baca buku beliau yang lain. __ Jalan cerita I See You agak cepat berbanding I Let You Go. Aku ada kongsi beberapa petikan daripada I See You dalam insta-story. Petikan yang menakutkan dan creepy. โ€œRoutine will kill youโ€. Korang boleh tengok dalam highlight โ€œBook Snippetโ€ if you miss it :) Anyway, I wish I can finish the book by the end of 2019. 3 jam lagi nak habiskan pembacaan mengikut perkiraan daripada @booklyapp ๐Ÿ˜Š __ Okay, I know, the caption is not related to the photo ๐Ÿ™ˆ Actually, Iโ€™m reading Black Window, a non-fiction and a book about depression but the storyline is quite slow, so I changed to I See You.

  • Hello, everyone! Happy weekend! ๐Ÿ˜Š Are you reading a book now? What is the title and how do you feel so far? __ Iโ€™m currently reading a mystery thriller by Clare Mackintosh bertajuk I See You. Ini adalah buku kedua daripada penulis yang aku baca. Suka dengan gaya penulisan Clare Mackintosh dalam I Let You Go dan itulah sebabnya aku baca buku beliau yang lain. __ Jalan cerita I See You agak cepat berbanding I Let You Go. Aku ada kongsi beberapa petikan daripada I See You dalam insta-story. Petikan yang menakutkan dan creepy. โ€œRoutine will kill youโ€. Korang boleh tengok dalam highlight โ€œBook Snippetโ€ if you miss it :) Anyway, I wish I can finish the book by the end of 2019. 3 jam lagi nak habiskan pembacaan mengikut perkiraan daripada @booklyapp ๐Ÿ˜Š __ Okay, I know, the caption is not related to the photo ๐Ÿ™ˆ Actually, Iโ€™m reading Black Window, a non-fiction and a book about depression but the storyline is quite slow, so I changed to I See You. Hii. Will continue to read Black Window when the time comes :) __ #flatlaysbyiqa #siqahreading #bookendsctbr
  • I have been waiting to read this book since forever and I was glad that I read this book before the end of 2019. This story is a heart-warming, touching and delightful read. Definitely one of the best books Iโ€™ve read in my life. There are so many things to love in this book. Many emotions in here โค๏ธ. __ Ove is a character that everyone should read about. He doesnโ€™t care what anyone thinks of him, the only things he cares about are his routines and rules. People say he was bitter, and โ€anti-socialโ€ but heโ€™s okay with that. __ He wants to take his own life after his wife, Sonja died but every day, thereโ€™re some things happened in his neighborhood that make him need to put off his plan to die. The storyline is slow but I still love it! Ove is actually the funniest and caring person despite his grumpy character. __ What I can say more about this book? I absolutely loved everything! The story had me hooked from the start to the end. Ove is a grumpy old man that makes you feel annoyed at first but by the end of the book, youโ€™ll want to hug and love him. Youโ€™ll think how sad youโ€™ll be if your spouse dies first ๐Ÿ˜ญ . I didnโ€™t want to say goodbye to Ove. He will stay close to my heart for a very long time. __ Highly recommended. Please read this book, everyone ๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป __ Quote: โ€œ๐—›๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ ๐—บ๐—ฎ๐—ป ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐—ฏ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ธ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ถ๐˜๐—ฒ. ๐—”๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜€๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ฎ๐˜€ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—น๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ. ๐—”๐—น๐—น ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—น๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ต๐—ฎ๐—ฑ.โ€ โ€œ๐—Ÿ๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ ๐—ฐ๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด. ๐—š๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐—ณ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด. ๐—Ÿ๐—ผ๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐—ถ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ ๐˜€๐˜๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ด๐—ฒ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด. ๐—œ๐˜ ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ฏ๐˜† ๐˜€๐˜‚๐—ฟ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐˜€๐—ฒ.โ€ __ Rating: 5/5 ๐ŸŒŸ __ #flatlaysbyiqa #siqahbookreviews #bookendsctbr #fredrickbackman #amancalledove
  • Q: Siapa penulis yang korang pertama kali baca karya mereka tahun ini dan terus jatuh cinta dengan penulisannya? __ Koleksi buku Tere Liye yang aku ada. Baru ada dua buku dah kecoh kan? Haha ๐Ÿ™ˆ . Tere Liye adalah salah seorang penulis untuk jawapan pada soalan di atas. Aku baru baca Tentang Kamu dan rasa nak sangat baca buku beliau yang lain. Aku ada perancangan untuk membaca semua karya Tere Liye, begitu juga dengan Andrea Hirata dan Colleen Hoover, cuma sedikit demi sedikit. Lambat mengenali mereka maka lambat lah juga untuk membaca semua karya mereka. Takpelah, aku guna konsep โ€œbiar lambat, asalkan bacaโ€. Hihi. __ Tak tahu nak tulis caption apa lagi. Inilah masalahnya bila caption bukan review buku ๐Ÿ˜… Korang ada masalah nak tulis caption ke? Atau aku sorang je mengalami masalah camni? ๐Ÿ˜Œ __ #flatlaysbyiqa #siqahreading #tereliye
