overview

you know what sodara-sodara, after completely overview my blog from my first post and realize something.. i'm not a nice blogger. well, diluar dari ketidak konsistenan saya dalam menulis, i'm just simply not nice to my readers. i never reply any comment an even if i did, i was simply not nice in it. *no wonder that no one wants to read my blog again right?*
i'm so sorry for my readers. from now on, i promise that i will try to consistently update my blog and reply to any one who comments.

for people who keep on reading my blog since 2009, thank you so much. i appreciate it.

love you guys,

Spell Bound

okay, my second book review is...

yes, i've been waiting a year for this book. it's the last installment from Hex Hall Series from Rachel Hawkins.

I love the previous books, Hex Hall and Demon Glass.

in Hex Hall, i fell in love with Sophie and Archer' characters. in Demon Glass i fell deeply more in love with the story and the plot.

and finally, after waiting a year i am in love again with this book.

but.. *yes there's a but* there are couple things i don't like in this book.

like:

The Brannicks. i kinda wish their part are bigger than what's been explained in book. i love their plot in Demon Glass, but in Spell Bound, i kinda think that their part are not really that important but to explain that Sophie's mother is one of The Brannicks *yes, this is spoiler*

i though Sophie is going to learn much from Brannicks about magic combat or something, but turns out... noooo

and the final battle, yes it's sad that Cal have to die to heal and save Sophie *yes, it's the big spoiler* but i wish the final battle will be more.... what's the world i'm looking for here... CLIMAX. yes, i wish the final battle will be intense but it turns out to be... again nooooo. i kinda think that it's too dull and quick and easy for final battle.

but, in the end i still love this book so i'm going to give B for Spell Bound.

cheers,

About That Night

so, you guys may don't know that i've been dying to read this book from two months ago since i first read Something About You, a book from Julie James.

yes, it is a romance comedy genre so shoot me.

it's the third installation from FBI/US Attorney series. i love Julie James's books like crazy. it witty, the heroines are sexy smart independent women and the guys are like super hot but in human kinda way. so it's down to earth books *well kinda.

so, i love her previous books (eg. Just Sexiest Man Alive, Practice Makes Perfect, Something About You and A Lot Like Love) and my expectation about this book *About That Night* is high.

so imagine after waiting so long *okay, maybe not that long (two months)* i'm finally get the epub version one day after the official release and read it

and you know what??

it's kinda suck.

well, not suck like what-the-fuck sucks, but it is kinda suck-since-i-know-the-writer-is-better-than-this suck.

i mean, it's kinda lost the Julie James' touch. you know, the witty conversation and the unexpected scene that makes me want to laugh and secretly wish i am that smart as the heroine. and the main plot line isn't very great and the sex scene... oh GOD.. it's kinda like Play by Play Series by Jaci Burton not like Julie James' kinda sex scene. i mean it's like Julie James is trying to copy other erotic romance sex scene rather that stay with her sweet love making scene in her previous books. it's kinda disappointing for me who is already expect much from Julie James.

but in the end i still like her books, so i'm going to give B- for this book.

cheers,
