Resmi sudah – aku benar-benar tergila-gila pada narasi gaya aliran kesadaran. Tulisannya sangat sendu dan kalau saja lebih mengalir lagi, aku pasti sudah terpeleset dan tersungkur di tengah-tengah buku ini! Kau tahu kan, kadang-kadang ada buku yang muncul dan kau yakin tidak akan melupakannya dalam waktu dekat, tapi tidak bisa menjelaskan dengan pasti *MENGAPA?* Begitulah perasaanku tentang *Caraku Bertahan* karya Meg Rosoff dan anak-anak berharga ini. Lingkungan yang **memesona**, karakter y...

Saya punya kenangan yang sangat manis tentang buku Caraku Bertahan karya Meg Rosoff.

Saya sempat butuh waktu untuk mempertimbangkan bagaimana saya akan menilai buku ini, tetapi akhirnya memutuskan untuk memberikannya rating penuh 5/5, dan inilah alasannya:Sangat mengganggu saya bahwa begitu banyak pembaca tidak bisa melihat melampaui hubungan yang tidak konvensional antara protagonis kita dan sepupunya, karena sebenarnya bukan itu inti buku ini. Itulah satu-satunya kelemahan nyata dari **Caraku Bertahan**—sayangnya, Meg Rosoff tampaknya menargetkan bukunya kepada audiens yang te...

Jujur saja, aku sudah diperingatkan. Aku sudah membaca ulasan Tatiana, jadi seharusnya aku sudah siap.Kebijaksanaan umum mengatakan bahwa ketika sepupu mulai 'aneh-aneh', kemungkinan besar hasilnya akan seperti ini:[image error]Tidak! Tidak! Tidaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaak!Tapi tidak ada yang memberi tahu Daisy dan Edmond tentang itu. Tidak ada yang bisa mendefinisikan cinta sejati seperti bercinta dengan sepupu kandungmu yang masih di bawah umur, kecanduan nikotin, dan telepatis, di tengah-tengah peran...

This summer I started doing more fitnessy activities not in an attempt to lose weight or clear my prematurely blocked arteries but in response to the plethora of Young Adult Dystopian Novels that led me to question whether I could a) win the Hunger Games b) jump from a moving train with my Dauntless buddies c) take out an alien with a swift kick to the face and then evade their hot spaceship pursuit. The answers to these questions are a) no b) no c) no. Young Adult Dystopian Novels forced me to ...

The world has gone mad... What is there to add more?While the book was a bit overly simplistic, there was something endearing about it. The 4 stars is for the unorthodox punctuation.Q:Every war has turning points and every person too. (c)Q:If you haven't been in a war and are wondering how long it takes to get used to losing everything you think you need or love, I can tell you the answer is no time at all. (c)Q:I noticed that once you realize someone's watching you it's pretty hard not to find ...

Horrible. This book contained inappropriate content for the recommended 13 year old and up readers. An anorexic 15 year old has sex with her "cool", cigarette smoking cousin. This book is everything you wouldn't want your 13 year old reading about. On top of the disgusting content I found there to be really no plot and no real clear resolution or ending. The characters were strangers to me the entire time while reading. I found the whole story rather boring and pointless.PLOT:3/20 CREATIVITY:3/2...

i may just be giving this five stars out of surprise... i was dreading reading all these teen books - not all of them look bad or anything, but there are just so many and i am so far away from my teenage years... but this one is a hoot! (if a book about war and death and eating disorders and all horrible things can be said to be a hoot. for my purposes i say yes) i liked the character's voice; it was just the right combination of faux-sophistication and vulnerability. and all the survival stuff ...

While the world wavers on the brink of war, struck by terrorist attacks and embargoes, Daisy's big concern is whether her stepmother is poisoning her food and how much she hates the unborn baby. Shipped off by her father to stay with cousins she's never met in England, she's not so far into herself that she doesn't notice something a bit odd about them. Osbert, the eldest, seems fairly normal, being responsible for his siblings while their mother, Daisy's Aunt Penn, is away but really wanting to...
