the fact that tony can be nice and charming but still chose not to until hoda was pregnant is so sickening

just finished the first chapter (prologue part 1) and oh… the anti-china sentiment feels quite strong in this one 😭😭😭

[sash @sashisreading]

[sash @sashisreading]

FINISHED those last few chapters are heartbreaking 💔 but like also heartwarming? as expected from backman, i really like how he ties up every loose threads in the book in the last chapters

Jangan hype lagu MBG yang bahlul-bahlul itu. AI, shallow, dan imo terasa dibuat untuk desensitize masyarakat sama politikus berbahaya. Inget gemoyfication 02? Young voters + lower income class ate that shit up, we can't, CAN'T let that slipped out again.

@floretide mungkin kita emang seangkatan 🤓

i adoreeee terjemahan bahasa indonesianya One Hundred Years of Solitude & Convenience Store Woman, both are so fun to read. kalo buku lama, paling suka buku-bukunya Enid Blyton (terutama Malory Towers & St. Claire). kalo komik, Asterix masih best of the best LUCU BANGET

kalo suka versi bahasa indonesianya, berarti memang editornya dan pengalih bahasanya keren banget.

catat namanya, follow social media-nya kalo ada, cari info buku apa aja yg dia terjemahkan.

menurutku, alih bahasa aset besar di setiap penerbit.

belum bisa digantikan AI.

@holybrunette buku “beneran” yg pertama aku baca, sampe kuliah juga masih suka aku reread kalo lagi libur semester 😭

[sash @sashisreading]

i think i used the wrong tense (it should be “i’ve already written”) but i don’t have respect for this colonizer language

[sash @sashisreading]

i already wrote books but currently i reallyyyy want to write a short stories collection with Life Ceremony-esque vibe!!!

[sash @sashisreading]

is this a safe space…

[karelelelel @librarels]

@basebuku buku apa yang rame banget diomongin tapi pas dibaca ternyata ga cocok di kalian?

[Christa Sydney @christasyd]

Plis kalo ada yang mau bilang "sejahat-jahatnya Suharto, dia tidak [insert kata-kata]" berarti gak paham sejahat apa Suharto karena bener-bener lu mau bikin daftar permasalahan Indonesia itu semua bisa ditelusuri bermuara dari Suharto.
