[Can't Wait] Revenge Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger

Well, till now I haven't read The Devil Wears Prada yet, but I am totally blown away by its movie. So, sooner or later, I plan to read it. And, just by this morning, I read Lauren's tweet about her activity in signing her new book, called Revenge Wears Prada.In the blink of an eye, I realize maybe this is a sequel for her sensational hit, The Devil Wears Prada.

Anddd, wowsa...this is real. Revenge Wears Prada is the second installment of Andy Sach's story. Yihaaaaa.... visit Lauren Weisberger's official website.


I'll look forward into it. Hopefully, I can read these two novels by Lauren. Cant' wait. DEFINITELY!

Currently Reading: The Jane Austen Book Club


After long time hiatus, I am quite ready to re-join Indonesia's Book Bloggers (BBI) read along event this month. BBI decided that we will read along "Book about Book" on April. I am participating this read along event by reading The Jane Austen Book Club by Karen Joy Fowler. I wanted to read this book after I watched an adaptation movie of the book long time ago.

Here's the trailer:

I Got a Present From a Super Secret Santa!

Since last month, I promised myself to separate my book collection, local and international. In the beginning, I made this blog to post any review only from my English-book but then I thought that the translation book must be included on it too, because basically their story is written in English. 

This year, I also submitted this blog to join on a group of Blogger Buku Indonesia (Indonesian Book Bloggers) and I am happy that I did it. They're truly awesome. They have an amazing spirit in reading, reviewing, and discussing the books. Along with Goodreads Indonesia, BBI is my sanctuary.

BBI has an epic event every year. It's called by Secret Santa. The rule is simple. Go to Oky Septya's or Ndari blog to know it further. In brief, (1) you must be a member of BBI, (2) you have to register in joining this event in specified time, (3) the committee will chose another registered member to become your Santa, and (4) in reverse, you will be chosen as Santa for the other registered member, (5) giving/receiving your wishlist book as a gift, (6) read and review your book, and (7) post your review in specified time and don't forget to reveal who is your Secret Santa on your post. Exciting, right?

Anddddd, this is the package that I received last week.

Just Bought These Books #4

OmyGOD! It is a terrible idea for having any social media account and then followed a book store because I'll always be tempted to buy and buy and buy books every time they share an information about their book-sale. Gosh, and this Monday I just bought these books. Well, their prices are discounted 30% or 50% but still, I have a lot of books on my shelves which is unreadable, and I keep shopping. *sigh*

Anyway, I already bought them so I only hope that I will read them anytime soon.
