Indonesians Who Love English Books discussion

I just start reading Dreams of Gods & Monsters, the last book in Daughter of Smoke & Bone trilogy. Book 1 and 2 were amazing. I have my hopes really high for the last one. *fingers crossed* :)

Finished Defending Jacob a couple of days ago. Wow, what a ride. It kept me up until 2.30 in the morning and then I slept with the light on, to offset the dark feelings the book left me with.

Currently reading In The Afterlight which is the last book in The Darkest Minds trilogy. Very engaging and action-packed, loving it so far.

Finished The Goldfinch and currently reading A Tale of Two Cities.

Hello i just join this community, i dont have any english book to read, any suggest to somebody who start to read english book like me ? Sorry my english so bad and if im out of topic

@Femmy: Ha! I remembered that feeling

@Kresna, what kind of books do you like? Start with those, so you'll enjoy the book you're reading and have the drive to stay with it till the end.

I read indonesian book's such as epigram, 9 autumn 10 summer, and other biography book. I want to read brother kamarazov but it's hard to understand it because of my bad vocab.

@femmy any sugest for me? Easy book for newbee hehe :)

I'm reading I've Got Your Number by Sophie Kinsella. It was a birthday gift from last year and finally getting around to reading it :)

@Kresna: Try to read children book first. The content and vocab are easily understand. Then you can up your reading progress by reading book for Middle Grade or YA. One step at a time :)

I just finish reading , any Jim Butcher fangirl/fanboy here? Can we squeal together? :P

Just finished Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover. My advice? Maybe don't read it. I can't.

I'm halfway through Thirteen Reasons Why, by Jay Asher, this is so depressing book.

Just started on Cinder and loving the unique twist on cinderella.

Currently reading UnWholly! Not as exciting as the first book, but still, a good read.

Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas. I like the heroine, so far. She's funny!

Currently reading Girl Online by Zoe Sugg, because I'm feeling like reading something fluffy and cute. But yeah, not really impressed so far.

Just finished Mutants: On The Form, Varieties And Errors Of The Human Body. The best science book I've read so far. Now I'm starting to read The Ghost Map: The Story of London's Most Terrifying Epidemic - and How It Changed Science, Cities, and the Modern World

A very famous series which i've been planning to read for a long time.

Reading The Help and The Autobiography of Malcolm X to celebrate Black History Month.

Hello! I've joined this group a few moments ago. Nice to know you all!
Anyway I'm currently reading popular classics Jane Eyre. It indeed contains beauty in every word.

I am currently reading Natsume Soseki's the Miner, and I have to say it is an utterly fascinating novel.

my light reading, Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson, I watched the movie years ago and make me cried like a baby, and i hope the novel have the same effect hehehe

Currently reading Along for the Ride. This may tied or overcome The Truth About Forever. I'm loving it!

Currently reading The Scorch Trials, Spell Bound, and Let It Snow. None of those three books impress me so far.

I have finished read Point of Retreat by Colleen Hoover and currently read Kongres Perempuan Pertama: Tinjauan Ulang by Susan Blackburn..

currently reading To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han, and enjoyed it so far!

Currently read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

currently reading Jimmy Corrigan The smartest kid on earth, very hard to read :|

Reading Blood Red Road by Moira Young. Having a love-hate relationship with the unusual writing style.

Currently reading The Diary of a Young Girl and Me Before You. Both books are okay, although I might have to finish the first before I continue the latter. The diary is so interesting, I have a hard time believing it was real.

I'm currently reading Manusript Found in Accra by Paulo Coelho and Outlander by Diana Gabaldon. Both books are okay so far xD

Currently reading Cocktail series #4 Mai Tai'd Up by Alice Clayton

After a very strong start with The First Man in Rome, The Grass Crown and Fortune's Favorites covering the Marius and Sulla, the the Masters of Rome series by Colleen McCullough kind of slowed down with the less interesting Caesar's Women. So i put the series on hiatus..

Fortunately, when i did decide on continuing reading, the next book, Caesar, picked up pace with Caesar fighting the war in Gaul, followed by the crossing of the Rubicon and the civil war.

So I am again enjoying this very well researched series...
(I really wish somebody would have a similar level of treatment for stories of Indonesian kingdoms)

Having just finished Caesar, currently reading the penultimate book from the series, The October Horse: A Novel of Caesar and Cleopatra about the fall of Caesar and the rise of Octavian.

Currently reading The Infinite Sea by Rick Yancey. I am less than 100 pages to finish it an so far I am not impressed by it since it is not as good as the first one. But it's still an enjoyable book. Hope my opinion will change as soon as i'm done reading it.
