It is one of the books that blown my mind. It's very well written and would probably relate with a lot of people who are in their journey to find themselves. So many people are talking about it but I did not buy it until a few months ago where I read the preview on the first pages. Easy for me to see if I want to buy the book or not. When the first pages hook me right away, I don't need to think twice. This book is one of them. This contains spoiler of course. Nora, the main character, like many of us, fall into depression and decided to kill herself. But she's not dead right away. She went into a kind of limbo between life and death. In that library she met a librarian, this librarian is a kind of a guide. Our guide that probably tasked when we were born. The librarian shows her lives that she could have had if she wants to. She is so depressed and thinks that no life will makes her happy enough to live it. I can totally understand her state. I was there....
Apa yang kalian lakukan ketika bosan saat mengikuti kuliah dikelas??? Menggambar pohon, menghitung hutang atau yang sering dilakukan secara masal mahasiswa, tidur? Kuliah hampir 4 tahun ini, yang sering kulakukan saat aku bosan dengan perkuliahan yaaaa kalo ndak coret-coret kertas dengan berbagai bahasa ya tidur. Kalo tidur ini tergantung posisi. Kalo pas di deretan yang keliatan dosen ya ndak bisa tidur aku. Tapi ya, masih lebih sering belajar bahsa sih, dikelas matematika Akhir-akhir ini, aku sering mencatat apa saja yang akan aku lakukan sebagai target kedepannya. Mencatat maksudnya. Hmmm... mencatat semua rencana apa yang akan kulakukan sekaligus detailnya. Yaa belakangan sih, aku sering nyatet planku sebelum nikah dan hampir nikah bahkan sampe aturan mendidik anakpun juga aku tulis. Hehehhe.. biar aja. Aku juga merencanakan bagaimana isi dan desain rumahku nantinya. Menyenangkan. Sangat. At least, dikelas statistik atau sejarah matematika aku tidak terlihat tidur heheh...
