i feel like in order to feel connection with this book, u got to be in a certain level of understanding in literacy, and im none of it. jose donoso writing is another writing that left me unfazed and sometimes i think he was on lsd while writing this, just vulgar and obscure. but its interesting though.

to think about it again, it’s sort of a waste to stop reading Tetralogi Buru so suddenly when there’s only one book left to read. Even now, i could merely recalled Minke’s journey on Anak Semua Bangsa vividly, since the last time i read it was 2021, a year ago presumably. I might buy it later when it’s fit with the timing.

i turned into a whole different person when i switch to indonesian, i just found it slightly hillarious because every single review that i give that written in english all sounds like “holy shit this book is so cool and i have no scientifical reason about that!” but when it’s written in indonesian i sounded more profound and deep as if i doing it for my essay.

Chan Ho-Kei is absolute genius like wtf???? We all know all along who’s the culprit was from the start but still it gave me chills when the truth was revealed gradually by N. At this point Chan Ho-Kei is gonna be my favorite thriller-mystery writer without any doubt.

I’ve been strolling around Goodreads finding some books to read that actually keeps me glued to and i think this book is the one that i’ve been looking for. Still around 400 pages left to read but this book is really well written although to be honest Nga-Yee naiveness irritates me a lot.
