Review

Recently I feel a little bit "tired" on reading. When I say "tired", it means that I try to avoid books that I feel "heavy" or difficult to read and prefer a lighter one. Like this book, for example.

I think the story is easy to follow. It was quite light and very teenage-ish, which brought a lot of memory. I wish there were more interactions between Ocha and Adit. Also, I think Adit's messages are kinda "girlish" and I kinda giggled when Adit supposedly send a picture of himself and the author (or the publisher?) decided to use a manga style character.

Overall, the story was ok and enjoyable.

This book is for the following reading challenges:
- 2013 New Authors Reading Challenge
- 2013 Indonesian Romance Reading Challenge
