Amazing book!!

Aku 'menemukan' buku ini tanpa sengaja. Diantara buku import yang tersusun rapi, buku bersampul hijau ini menarik perhatianku :)

Padahal, buku itu keadaannya sangat lusuh, kotor dan berdebu. Jari tanganku sampai menempel debu yang berwarna hitam. Yaks :O

Saat aku membuka halamannya secara asal, aku dihadapkan pada sebuah poerty yang menarik. Aku jongkok dan membuka halaman yang lain...Oh waow!! ini buku ajaib. Aku harus beli. Tapi sayangnya... buku ini hanya ada satu dan tersisa dalam keadaan lusuh! Huh! aku kurang suka dengan harganya yang mahal, padahal kondisi buku sudah kurang bagus. Karena udah telanjur suka, Aku tetap beli deh :)

Isinya meaning banget. Aku nggak akan bosan untuk membolak-balik dan membacanya ulang.
