ayat-ayat cinta by habiburrahman el shirazy

sangat mengujakan dan menyentuh perasan. As a muslim, this is a must read novel. Although non-muslim also will find it refreshing and insight on what Islam is all about. I find it full of love, heart and soul giving me a lot of imagination though it stands firmly on the ground of reality.

Thought me a lot on the beauty of Islam. The way of life and the greatness that comes together with our beloved religion, prophet Muhammad and Allah azzawajalla.

Bahasa yang indah, jalan cerita membuat kita tak sabar-sabar terus membaca untuk melalui perjalanan si Fahri yang penuh liku. Climax was after Fahri married to Aisha. Dugaannya yang diluar kebiasaan. Tapi memang benar Allah takkan menguji hambanya dengan dugaan yang tak tertanggung oleh kita. Hebat!

I've read Habiburrahman novels Tasbih Cinta and Tasbih Cinta 2 before this one. Saya merasa karyanya adalah yang segar dan mudah difahami dan diterima oleh pembaca zaman ini. Words he used are light and how he describe it in the novel are something we can relate.

It is not only a beautiful love story among human but the best is it direct our attention to the fact that there are a more eternity love we are seeking that is to Allah. Kita bercinta sesama manusia mengikuti jalan yang diredhai-Nya. Subhanallah. If only.....

stacey's mom, helen became a household name and are so popular, she even featured in Oprah. While stacey's career going further down to the slump.

she gave her peace of mind to jack rawlins and they've had fallen in love. it was my fav romantic comedy like story and it was fun to read.

there are a slight drama also when helen met a man of her dreams who turn out not as what it seems. this is when the challenge came for stacey to prove to her mother and it also shows how much a daughter loves and sacrifices meant. but towards the end the plot of the story got faster and a little off too.

overall, it was ****

the shape of my heart by tiffanie de bartolo

the story is about beatrice a jewellary designer whom had met jacob a writer, thru' a personal ad which read

if your intentions are pure
i'm seeking a friend
for the end
of the world

so they met he called him trixie which is short for beatrice.. she never been called but she loves it. at the first meeting, he just stared at her for couple of minutes.

they fall in love, they fought, they make up, they fought, they share laughter and sadness... typical love story of course, but the end was not your normal live happily ever after... jacob died...huhuhu..

the writing was simple and fun. fast and delirious yet is deeply felt. ***** for tiffanie de bartolo
