Review: Twilight


Twilight
Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

My rating: 3 of 5 stars



Yes, it was nicely written. But I feel that three star is quite enough for this book. Perhaps because I have watched the movie first before read the book. Like a friend of mine said to me "The movie spoiled the book', and I was kinda reading this book with half-hearted. Pity me. I should read this book first before watch the movie, like what I usually did. However, the conclusion that I can make for this book is:

Isabella Swan is my imaginary girlfriend :D

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Saya tak sangka ramai juga ahli politik kita ini pelucu sebenarnya. Astro patut wujudkan satu realiti TV ala-ala Maharaja Lawak, yang khas untuk ahli politik sahaja. Kah Kah Kah

""Selangor's rapid development under Dr. Mahathir's leadership is because there is a favoured person Selangor in Dr. Mahathir's life - his wife, Dr. Siti Hasmah... It looks like Selangor will prosper further under Pak Lah [future Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi] because his wife, Endon, is also from Selangor."

Selangor Chief Minister Mohd Khir Toyo. (The New Straits Times, 19 June 2003).

This was good news for Selangor, However..." - page 67

Review: Rayyan Fantasi


Rayyan Fantasi
Rayyan Fantasi by Ramlee Awang Murshid

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Pada mulanya saya ingin memberi 5 bintang untuk novel ini, tapi disebabkan terdapat beberapa kesalahan
tanda baca, saya terpaksa memberikan 4 bintang sahaja.

Jalan cerita yang menarik, menggunakan atmosfera yang berbeza memang memerlukan saya berfantasi melebihi jangkauan ketika menikmati hasil karya RAM ini. Tambahan lagi, banyak istilah sainstifik yang dikonsumkan, menjadikan ianya lebih menarik perhatian saya.

Selain daripada menggunakan elemen-elemen suspen dan mendebarkan, RAM juga ada menyelitkan elemen perasaan kasih sayang dan cinta, menjadikan Rayyan Fantasi ini lebih berona warni dan atraktif. Unsur keagamaan juga tidak tersisa untuk disisipkan dalam Rayyan Fantasi ini, mengakui kebesaran Allah yang Maha Agung. Tahniah RAM, saya suka Rayyan Fantasi ini.

p/s: Cuma saya terfikir pada ayat RAM: "Apa yang terfikir...itu ada!"
Saya terfikirkan sambungan Rayyan Fantasi ini. Mungkinkah ada, barangkali?
