Every writer has their own hallmark. After reading Antalogi Rasa (second book from Ika Natassa that I read), I start to notice similarity between the books.
Airport, it seem like Ika Natassa has a special memory about airport. Critical Eleven and Antalogi Rasa starts with chapter about airport. When you read the first chapter, you will instantly know that is Ika who wrote the book.
Write the story from different view of person. While in Critical Eleven Ika wrote from 2 different angle in Antalogi Rasa she wrote from 3 different angle, Keara, Harris and Ruly. Even though most of it from Keara and Harris point of view.
Name and character. Harris name and character are some much look a like in Antalogi Rasa and Critical Eleven. Main character always beautiful, independent and success career women.
Maybe it's just my shallow observation after reading her two books but I enjoy reading them. It's light and a great escape from your busy days. Once you read it you want to finish read the book instantly and wants to know the end. Love the end of Antalogi Rasa but cliché ending for Critical Eleven.
I love the way the story flows in Antalogi Rasa, emotion and relation between all the characters. The twist and dynamic relation Keara had with Harris, Panji and Ruly. The way Keara play with her own feeling and at the end realize that she can change something that she posses of.
This review will not help anyone that wants to know the story of Antalogi Rasa, but if you buy and read the book, you will enjoy it.
Any suggestion for my next book review? Went to book store last week but somehow none grab my attention. Let's go to the book store.... yeah....
