The Blood of Olympus - Rick Riordan (not sure if this is a review or not, but surely it contains SPOILER!)

Riordan, Rick. 2014. The Blood of Olympus. New York: Disney Hyperion.

Rating KYAAAAAA 5 STARS KYAAAAAAA!!!

I know it's early. I know this awesome thing just came out a couple days ago. I know you REALLY don't want to accidentally stumble in my blog and read this uncool spoiler. Oh by the way, SPOILER ALERT! SPOILER ALERT! Read on your own risk.

It's not exactly a review though. It's a jumble mess of my feelings. Yo, guys, I actually wanted to review this book along with its nine books before this, but I guess I'll settle with only this one for now. I don't know. I'm kind of planning to make reviews for Percy Jackson and the Olympians series and Heroes of Olympus series separately, but... what's the point? Based on this, I review books so I don't just forget what I've read. The problem is, I read this whole series repeatedly and I remember every bits in every scenes! I've read the other nine books ninth times each, so far. So, yeah.

Dear Rick Riordan, The Myth Master, I hope this is not really the end of Percy's adventure. Please plan to make something, anything, with Percy in it. I wish you work on Percy Jackson/Kane Chronicles crossover more. You've hinted (or so I wished) that there will be another story regarding to that. Well, just so you know, I'M PRAYING FOR IT!

Nah kan, ini dia masalahnya kalau ulasan buku dibuat DUA BULAN setelah bukunya selesai dibaca. Saya sudah hampir lupaaaaaa sama efek buku ini ke saya. Dan selama dua bulan ini pun banyak buku yang sudah saya baca (dan beberapa buku itu bikin saya tergila-gila!), jadi euforia Cruel Beauty di kepala saya sudah tipis banget. Ya sudahlah, mari kita lihat bagaimana saya menghancurkan ulasan ini.

Well, this is the problem if I write a book review after finished reading it TWO MONTHS ago. I almost forgot the effect of this book to me, it leaves a vague feeling now. And I’ve read many books in these two months (some of them I’m crazy about), so I’m not really euphoric anymore about Cruel Beauty. But anyway, let’s start the review which I’m sure will be a mess kind of review.

Beautiful Nightmares - Farrahnanda [DNF, Sorry!]

DEAR READERS, I'M NOT GOING TO REVIEW THIS BOOK IN ENGLISH BECAUSE IT'S NOT WORTH MY TIME AND ENERGY MORE THAN HOW MUCH I ALREADY HAD GIVEN FOR IT. SERIOUSLY, YOU'RE NOT MISSING ANYTHING.

Farrahnanda. 2013. Beautiful Nightmares. Yogyakarta: de TEENS.

Rating errr enggak berbintang.

Kenapa saya baca buku ini?
Enaknya jadi anggota Blogger Buku Indonesia (BBI), kita punya kesempatan untuk dapat buku gratis yang baru banget rilis, untuk dibaca kemudian diulas di blog. Jadi, waktu Mas Dion menawarkan beberapa buku gratis, saya mengajukan diri untuk meresensi salah satu. Saya belum pernah ikut yang beginian, jadi penasaran. Saya tipe orang yang suka kejutan, jadi saya enggak terlalu cerewet mau pilih buku yang mana, yang begini sih untung-untungan saja dapat buku bagus atau enggak. Dan, ternyata... saya lagi enggak beruntung. Bagaimana pun, terima kasih Mas Dion sudah mengirimkan buku gratis ke saya. Pengalaman yang menarik sekali, hahaha.
